Christopher Columbus, the Americas Discovered

Columbus, in an effort to find a way to Eastern Europe, was accidentally found the American continent which makes it more influential in world history, to his surprise. His discovery was also a crown of exploration and colonization of the New World and at the same time is also an important milestone in history. Columbus is like opening the door to mainland Europe for two new settlements, scattered population and provide a source of mineral wealth and replenish the earth, which in turn changed the face of Europe. Coincided with the discovery also led to the destruction of Indian culture. In the long term, the discovery that gave birth to a new nation in the Western Hemisphere continents, which are distinguished very rapidly with the Indians as the indigenous population. As a result, Columbus brought a big change for the nations of the Old World.
A summary of the history of Columbus is not a new problem. Born in Genoa, Italy in 1451. Coming out of an adult, became a captain and a navigator who skillfully. Columbus finally convinced that it is impossible to find a more practical way to the eastern parts of Asia by sailing west across the Atlantic, and pioneered the identification of care. Of course, this would be great intentions not free enough. That's why Columbus convinced Queen Elizabeth I to present a budget for the experiment of the expedition.
His ship docked at the Port of Spain on August 3, 1492. Melabuh first in the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa. Weigh in the Canary Islands on 6 September and sailed westward direction speed. A cruise is not a long game, so do not be surprised if the crew was horrified and wanted to return. Columbus? No! Travel must be sent, once rolled candles abstinence. And October 2, 1492 is like a piece of green silk, looked at the arc of the earth.
Columbus returned to Spain in March next, from the terrible discovery greeted people with respect. After he made a series of trips across the Atlantic in the hope of setting foot in China and Japan. But in vain! Columbus continued to protest his mind he had found the route to East Asia before anyone knew.
Queen Isabella promised Columbus became governor of the island where it was found. But as a manager really so incompetent removed from office and sent home to Spain with his hands cuffed. But when he arrived in Spain was released just never given the post again. The rumor is that Columbus died in poverty without any funds. When he died in 1506 - news - there is also a small property.
Clearly, the first voyage of Columbus was a revolutionary change in the history of Europe and even have a greater influence on the European continent. The children recite in school during the year 1492 is important. However, there are many possible objections to the names of places in the order of Columbus from this list of books.
One objection is that instead of Columbus the first European to discover the New World. Leif Ericson, Viking sailors, centuries before Columbus had set foot on the continent of America and so-so to believe that some other Europeans, had crossed the Atlantic in the days of Leif Ericson and Columbus.
From the point of history, Leif Ericson is not an important person. Questions concerning its results have never been extended, so that left no changes both in America and Europe. However, news of the discovery of America, as the lightning spread throughout Europe. Only a few years after his return from Columbus, and as a direct result of his discovery, the expedition arrived in many New World and the conquest and colonization started.
Like the other characters in this book, Columbus susceptible to interference from the various comments, as if what he was doing other people do if Columbus had never lived in the world. European 15th century AD in a state of concern and berkemelut: world trade grew, the exploration of new areas is inevitable. The Portuguese were in fact very actively seeking a new path for the flow of the East in the decisive moments before Columbus.
United States is likely to sooner or later discovered by the Europeans, maybe even if there was a delay, it is time not too long. But subsequent events will be very different if the Americans found - for example, in 1510 - the issue of the French or English and not in 1492 by Christopher Columbus. Under the pretext of what is, in fact, Colombuslah he found the Americas.
The third objection is the possibility, even before the journey of many Europeans of the 15th century Columbus who had reported that the real earth is round in shape. This theory has been expressed by the Greek philosophers of earlier centuries, and an unwavering justification of the assumptions of Aristotle was enough to convince European intellectuals in the 1400s. Meanwhile, Columbus was not known who proved that the earth is round. (At least, I could not do). It is recognized in the case of new discoveries in the world, the good people of 15 th century Europe Aristotle knew nothing of the Americas. by Michael H.
