Columbus was an Italian-born Spanish explorer. He operated under the Spanish Flag in all four of his major voyages to the New World. He did not sail under the French Banner, you must be thinking of LaSalle, or Champlain (of Lake Fame) or other French Voyagers such as Cartier who discovered Canada- no he did not get sponsorship from the as-yet unfounded Fifth avenue Jeweler!
