Christopher Columbus had a difficult childhood, losing his wife and being attacked by the French during his first voyage, which set him on a path to explore. He wanted to find a direct trade route to Asia by sailing west. His voyages in the late 1400s opened up trade between Europe and the Americas, inspiring other explorers and changing the world through the establishment of European colonies in lands newly encountered by Europeans.

Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer who sought to find a western route to Asia. In 1492, with the support of the Catholic monarchs of Spain, Columbus embarked on a voyage with three ships - the Niña, Pinta, and Santa María - and a crew of 90 men. After a 36 day journey, on October 12th, Columbus landed on an island in the Bahamas, believing he had reached Asia but had actually discovered lands unknown to Europeans.
Christopher Columbus
Christopher Columbus was a famous 15th century explorer. In 1492, he sailed from Europe across the Atlantic Ocean, hoping to reach China but instead landing in the Bahamas, becoming the first European to discover the Americas.

Christopher Columbus made four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain between 1492 and 1502. While seeking a direct route to Asia, he instead encountered the Americas. His journeys marked the beginning of centuries of European colonization in the Americas. However, Columbus and his men also subjected the native inhabitants to violence and brutality, enslaving many and imposing forced labor policies. Today, Columbus remains a controversial figure who is both celebrated for initiating the Columbian Exchange and criticized for the devastating impacts on indigenous populations.

They are so affectionate and have so little greed and are in all ways so amenable that I assure your highnesses that there is in my opinion no better people and no better land in the world. They love their neighbors as themselves and their way of speaking is the sweetest in the world, always gentle and smiling. Both men and women go naked as their mothers bore them; but your highnesses must believe me when I say that their behavior to one another is very good and the king keeps marvelous state, yet with a certain kind of modesty that is a pleasure to behold, as is everything else here. They have good memories and ask to see everything, then inquire what it is and what it is for.

They should be good servants and very intelligent, for I have observed that they soon repeat anything that is said to them, and I believe that they would easily be made christians, for they appeared to me to have no religion. God willing, when I make my departure I will bring half a dozen of them back to their Majesties, so that they can learn to speak.

…these people are very unskilled in arms, as your Majesties will discover from the seven whom I have caused to be taken and brought aboard so that they may learn our language and return. However, should your Highnesses command it all the inhabitants could be taken away to Castille or held as slaves on the island, for with fifty men we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we wish. Moreover, near the small island I have described there are groves of the loveliest trees I have seen…

Christopher columbus
Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer born in 1451 who grew up dreaming of becoming a sailor. He was inspired by Marco Polo's travels to Asia and sought to find a western water route there in order to trade for spices and precious stones. Though initially denied funding, Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand II of Spain eventually sponsored Columbus's expedition in 1492, providing him three ships and 90 men. After two months at sea, Columbus landed in the Bahamas, believing he had found a route to Asia but had actually discovered the Americas.
Discovery: Columbus
Christopher Columbus, a Genoese explorer and navigator, obtained support for his plan to reach Asia by sailing west from King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain in 1492. He set sail with three ships and 88 men, landing in the Bahamas rather than Asia. After exploring the islands and encountering the native Taíno people, Columbus returned to Spain with prisoners and goods. His voyage inaugurated a period of European colonization in the Americas over the next centuries.
