12 oct 1492 año - Christopher Colombus first sets foot in the New World
Descripción:
Christopher Colombus, an Italian by birth sailing under the Spanish flag, most likely landed somewhere in the modern-day Bahamas while looking for an alternate passage from Europe to the East Indies. Although not the first European to reach the New World, his discovery was the first to be taken seriously by European monarchies, beginning the age of American colonization.Añadido al timeline:
