12 ottob 1492 anni - Christopher Columbus lands in the Bahamas
Descrizione:
 Funded by  Spain,  Columbus sought  a shorter, westward route to Asia.  One that did not involve a long, dangerous sail around the tip of Africa.  Instead, his four voyages led to the widespread knowledge of a New World existing between Europe and Asia.  This led to extensive exploration and colonization of these lands by Spain and other European countries.
