Why do sailors go anywhere with anybody? A variety of reasons, one would suppose. 'Why not?' The adventure. A job. Money. Promises of wealth from the supposed Cathay. Boredom,
Are there any actual records of reasons given, I wonder
they were scared and did not trust columbus.
The Spanish Folks (: haha i think. . . :/
Christopher Columbus spoke several languages, including Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese. He also had some knowledge of Latin and was likely able to communicate in other languages common among sailors during that time.
because he had no sailors
On Columbus' first trip, Queen Isabella gave him a crew of 90 sailors.
Ninety.
no the didn't
The sailors Columbus left behind on his first voyage were left at a fort called La Navidad in present-day Haiti. When Columbus returned on his second voyage, he found the fort destroyed and all the sailors killed by the native Taino people.
Columbus and the sailors' journey ended with exploration of so many new islands. This was during the time when the Spaniards had sour relations with the people of Hispaniola.
1,000 one thousand
Because they don't have electricity or candles.
Spain. Even though Columbus was Italian... The Spanish rulers, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella.
