Christopher Columbus is famous for exploring the Americas in 1492. Prior to his departure, Columbus went to the king and queen of Spain to ask for money to pay for his voyage. He also asked them to provide his ships.
Nobody actually sent him. He wanted to find a faster route to Asia so he asked kings and queens to fund him. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella gave him the money and Christopher promised them riches to spread Christianity around.
