Christopher Columbus is often credited with "discovering" the Americas in 1492, although he never actually set foot on the mainland of North America. His voyages led to the European awareness of the American continents, particularly the Caribbean islands, which he explored. Columbus's expeditions initiated widespread contact between Europe and the Americas, significantly impacting global trade and cultural exchanges. However, it's important to recognize that Indigenous peoples had been living in these lands long before his arrival.
