Christopher Columbus was an explorer during the Age of Exploration. He had a theory in proving that the world's circumference was not as great as others thought. By proving this theory, he would said sail west instead of east to reach Asia. However, Christopher Columbus realized that this expedition would be very expensive. He asked Queen Isabella to finance the voyage. After much persistence, the Queen accepted to pay for the exploratory expedition.
