Christopher Columbus was in search of a new westward route to Asia, specifically to access the lucrative spice trade. He aimed to find a faster way to reach countries like India and China, which were rich in valuable goods. Instead, his 1492 voyage led him to the Americas, where he encountered the indigenous populations and opened up a new era of exploration and colonization.
