The goal of the first voyage, undertaken by Christopher Columbus in 1492, was to find a new westward route to Asia in order to access its lucrative spice and trade markets. Columbus aimed to establish direct trade links and spread Christianity, believing he could reach the East Indies by sailing across the Atlantic Ocean. Instead, he inadvertently discovered the Americas, which changed the course of history.
