Columbus told the king and queen he would bring them back riches, and Spain at the time was competing with Portugal. In fact, Columbus also tried unsuccessfully to get support from Portugal, which was already finding sea routes to the East.

The king and gueen did finance Colubus's trip, because they wanted gold and he was the one who was trying to find it. So, the least they can do is cover the trip.

Who was the king and queen of spain in 1518?

Queen Isabel of Castilla and King Ferdinand of Aragon co-ruled Spain.
