                        Columbus day


Christopher columbus: Christopher was a Genoese explorer, navigator, and colonizer. His goals were to establish permanent settlement on the island of Hispaniola. Columbus trying to get to asia for spice trade, ended in the new world, settling in san Salvador, later visited the Caribbean, coast of Venezuela, and central America, claiming them for the Spanish empire. He spread the word of Christianity in the new world. It is celebrated because thanks to him America is what it is today.


reflection: i feel that thanks to columbus the americas have developed, and that if it hadn't been for his mistake things would have been different.
