3 ago 1492 ano - 1490 Columbus

Descrição:

a. Columbus departed from Spain on an expedition to find a water route to Asia with three ships. They landed first in San Salvador, a small island in the Bahamas, but continued onto Cuba, and eventually modern day Haiti.
b. Columbus left from Spain because he "wanted to find a new route to India, China, Japan and the Spice Islands". The convenience of discovering this water route is what sparked his expedition. https://www.rmg.co.uk/discover/explore/christopher-columbus-0
c. The new land promised " rich cargoes of silks and spices" promising wealth and goods. This opportunity is what made the "new land" a promising place to venture to.
