Italy, America comes from the Latin feminine form of the Amerigo. This is after Amerigo Vespucci, an explorer who sailed for Spain, and recognized the New World as something different, not as India, which was originally thought by Christopher Columbus. You can find much more on this topic by goggling his name. I hope this helps you.
Amerigo Vespucci didnt name America Martin Waldseemuller did in 1507 after America was named Amerigo died shortly after in 1512
No,he didn`t find it. A man named Amerigo found it.
Because America wouldn't have been named after Amerigo Vespucci if he didn't discover it. However Columbus was the first to find it but he wasn't completely sure so there for Amerigo gets the credit because he was sure it was a different continent.
Amerigo Vespucci discovered South and North America.
When Amerigo Vespucci sailed to America, it was his first voyage and his second expedition was to South America.
