The goals of the Coronado expedition included finding the Seven Cities of Cíbola and __________.

Answer
A
creating friendly alliances with the French and English
B
organizing a trade industry with the American Indians
C
claiming all the lands north of Mexico for Spain
D
starting the settlement San Juan de los Caballeros

Explanation

The Spanish expedition led by Francisco Vázquez de Coronado searched for the legendary Seven Cities of Cíbola and sought to expand Spain’s claims in the lands north of Mexico. Thus, the matching goal was claiming those lands for Spain. San Juan de los Caballeros was established later, so it was not one of Coronado’s goals.
