CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS 1451-1506

Columbus, in an effort to find a way from Europe to the East, was accidentally met the American continent which makes it more influential in world history, to her surprise yourself. His discovery was also a crown of exploration and colonization of the New World and at the same time also represents an important milestone in the history. Columbus is like opening the door for Europeans two continents for a new settlement, spread population and provide a source of mineral wealth and fill the earth which in turn changed the face of Europe. In parallel with that, the invention also resulted in the destruction of culture of the Indians. In the long run, that discovery gave birth to a new nation in the Western hemisphere continents, which very quickly distinguished themselves from the Indians as the natives. As a result, Columbus brought a big change for the nations in the Old World.
An outline of the story of Columbus is not a new problem. He was born in Genoa, Italy, in 1451. When leaving an adult, he became a captain and a navigator who deftly. Columbus finally convinced not impossible to find a more practical way to areas in eastern Asia by sailing westward across the Atlantic and he diligently pioneered his determination. Of course this is not the intention of going to happen without considerable cost. That's why Columbus persuaded Queen Isabella I provide a budget for the expedition experiments.
His ship was anchored off the port of Spain on August 3, 1492. Melabuh first in the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa. Weighed anchor in the Canary Islands on 6 September and sail westward toward the rate. A cruise is not playing long, so it is not strange if the crew was horrified and wanted to return it. Columbus? No! Travel must be forwarded, once abstinence rolled sail. And on October 2, 1492 is like a piece of green silk mainland looks at the bow.
Columbus returned to Spain in March next great exploration was greeted people with great respect. After that he undertook a series of voyages across the Atlantic in the hope of setting foot in China and Japan. But in vain! Columbus remained adamant in his mind that he had found the route to East Asia long before anyone else knew.
Queen Isabella promised Columbus to be governor of the island where he encountered. But, as an administrator he really incompetent so fired from his post and sent home to Spain with his hands shackled. But when he got in Spain he was released just never given the post again. The rumors said that Columbus died in poverty without any funding whatsoever. When his death in 1506 - other news again - there's also the little wealth.
