it opened the way to other explorers. Spain wanted the riches of the land so they sent Columbus to start a colony in the West Indies.
Marco Polo's travels influenced mapmakers and inspired Christopher Columbus, among many other explorers.
The 1494 treaty between Spain and Portugal divided the lands found by Columbus and other explorers.
Columbus gave the Hispanola Native Americans disease. He came from the old world and with him came diseases and the Native Americans had no immunity to these diseases. Other than that he opened the door to other European explorers.
There was no "explorer" who inspired Columbus to go on his ship to sail westward, however, the reason he went on his quest to prove the earth was round was that there was a competition held by the Queen to see who could find the shortest route to India, in a search for gold. As for "other European explorer", there have been hundreds of Europian explorers. Please be more specific.
Other European countries sent explorers to claim land in the New World.
