Christopher Columbus sought funding for his voyage to the New World from King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. After years of seeking support, he finally gained their backing in 1492. They provided him with three ships: the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa María, which he used for his historic journey.
