Well Columbus didn't the vikings did. Also the Native Americans but they lived in America. In lower grades text books and teachers would say that but as you go in higher grades you learn more the texts books for the higher grades then first and second grade teach you he did as you go in more higher the teach he didn't. If you want to make sure check text book. But Christopher didn't discover America.Christopher also got asserted when he went to Spain.
