Spain sent Christopher Columbus to his first voyage. :-)
Because
Nobody actually sent him. He wanted to find a faster route to Asia so he asked kings and queens to fund him. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella gave him the money and Christopher promised them riches to spread Christianity around.
Christopher Columbus convinced the King and Queen of Spain to finance his voyage to the New World.

Christopher Columbus was sent on his voyage by Spain. In 1492, he was sponsored by King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella I, who aimed to find a new trade route to Asia. Instead, Columbus famously reached the islands of the Caribbean, marking the beginning of European exploration and colonization in the Americas.
