1 Jan 1492 Jahr - One of the darkest years for humankind: Christopher Columbus makes landfall in the Americas, beginning European conquest

Beschreibung:

(After Christopher Columbus made landfall in the Caribbean, the Spanish Empire swiftly began conquering and colonizing much of the Americas. In the process, they enacted what may have been the worst genocide in the history of humankind, as around 70 million indigenous people throughout the Americas were killed in battle, slaughtered, or died from Old World diseases. Most of the empires of Western Europe also took part, including Portugal, France, and the UK.)
