The city of Columbus, Ohio, is named after Christopher Columbus, the Italian explorer credited with discovering the Americas in 1492. The name reflects the city's founding in the early 19th century, during a time when there was a growing interest in exploration and the legacy of Columbus. It was chosen to symbolize progress and the spirit of discovery. Columbus was officially designated as the state capital in 1816, further solidifying its name and significance.
Columbus called the Caribbean 'the new world' because he thought he'd discovered a new island, and built a city on it. but actually the native Americans were their first.
The islands Columbus visited in the Caribbean are called the west indies.
