What was the conflict of diary of a wimpy kid dog days?

In conclusion, the Spanish did not treat the Native Americans properly. They killed the Native Americans, sold them as slaves, and so on. That is not the right thing to do. They should have treated them differently, with respect. What if that was them? How would they feel? They didn't deserve any of the things they been through. They were innocent people who just crumbled in a cruel man's hands. That man was Christopher Columbus. In my opinion, Christopher Columbus is a murderer and did all the wrong things. I am not and will never be, on his side. GO NATIVE AMERICANS!


Why did christopher Columbus name America America?

Christopher Columbus named America after Amerigo Vespucci, an Italian map maker who showed Columbus that the lands discovered by him (Christopher Columbus) were actually separate lands, not an extension of the Spice Islands and part of Asia as Columbus believed. Christopher Columbus did not name America after Amerigo Vespucci. That was done by a German cartographer/mapmaker named Martin Waldseemüller in 1507. Waldseemüller was mislead by a book apparently written by Matthias Ringmann, which was based on a letter said to have been written by Vespucci, but which has proved to be a fake. Waldseemüller later produced other maps without the name America on them, but in 1538 Gerardus Mercator applied the name to the entire New World in his maps, and this was accepted, even though Spain did not recognize the name for over 200 years, stating that Columbus should get the credit.


Should Columbus's arrival in the Americans be labeled a discovery?

No because people was already there and they thought they was invaders.
