Queen Isabella of Spain.
Columbus asked King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain to sponsor his journey. He promised to bring them back riches from Asia but, he never reached Asia.
haha lol
Columbus's goal was to find a western sea route to Asia, which would allow for faster and more direct access to valuable spices and goods. Additionally, he hoped to spread Christianity and gain new territories for Spain. This vision of potential wealth and the desire to expand the Spanish empire convinced Ferdinand and Isabella to sponsor Columbus's voyage.
They first sponsored his voyage because they believed it would lead to China and the wealth that would come with it. Then they sponsored his subsequent voyages to gain wealth from the Americas!

Christopher Columbus's sponsor was Spain
Ferdinand and Isabella sponsored Christopher Columbus primarily to find a new trade route to Asia, aiming to access valuable spices and gold. They also sought to expand Spain's influence and prestige in the world, particularly as a counter to rival powers like Portugal. Additionally, they were motivated by a desire to spread Christianity and convert any new lands and peoples they encountered.
