- Coronado led a large expedition into the American Southwest in search of the Seven Cities of Gold.

1. Coronado was a skilled leader and military strategist. He was able to keep his men together and motivated, even in the face of difficult challenges.
2. He had a strong support team. His expedition was well-funded and equipped, and he had a number of experienced soldiers and explorers with him.
3. He was lucky. He was able to avoid major conflicts with the Native Americans and he was able to find food and water for his men.
