Christopher Columbus received support primarily from the Spanish monarchy, King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella I, who provided funding and resources for his voyages. He also garnered the backing of various members of the Spanish nobility and merchants who hoped to benefit from the trade routes and wealth he aimed to discover. Additionally, Columbus had the support of the Catholic Church, which endorsed his expeditions for both religious and economic reasons.
