Christopher Columbus

Yes. He did want to sail to them to have better Chavez of seeing what they were up against.

Christopher Columbus set sail with a fleet of three ships. These ships were the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria.

Q: when did he die

A: A LONG LONG time ago

He sailed from Spain

Between 1492 and 1504, Columbus made four voyages to the “New World.” He did not know he had discovered a new continent, but thought he was just off the coast of Asia. The first voyage saw him in Cuba, Hispaniola, and San Salvador. His second voyage he explored the same areas as the first trip but also touched on Purto Rico and Jamaica. On the last two voyages he sailed along the northern coast of South America and explored the coast of Central America.

San Salvador was the name Christopher Columbus gave the island he landed on in the Bahamas. The island is now known as Guanahani.

Columbus' exploration of South America was limited. On his third voyage in 1498, from August 4 through August 12, he explored the Gulf of Paria which separates the island of Trinidad from Venezuela. He explored the mainland of South America, including the Orinco River.

The Atlantic ocean.

It's not by Columbus. It's a misquote of a line from Andre Gide's 1925 novel The Counterfeiters (Les faux-monnayeurs): "On ne découvre pas de terre nouvelle sans consentir à perdre de vue, d'abord et longtemps, tout rivage" ("One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore").

Metaphorically, undoubtedly the meaning intended is "you won't make any major breakthroughs unless you're prepared to let go of the safe and familiar".

But as a nautical metaphor, it stinks. Commodore Collins of the British Admiralty * said that whoever coined the idea that sailors pre-Columbus stayed within sight of the shore had clearly never been to sea. Sailors from even the most primitive of cultures know that "coast-hugging" is very dangerous, so it's a poor metaphor for safety.

* Cited in Clifford D. Conner's "A People's History of Science: Miners, Midwives, and Low Mechanicks"

To increase the wealth of the empire by exploiting the resources of the new world. In the case of Spain, those meant gold and silver deposits found in the New Spain (present-day Mexico) and Peru.

Christopher Columbus he was born in Genoa, would have been called at birth "Cristoforo Colombo". His birth is postulated at between August and October of 1451. Today Genoa is part of Italy, but in 1451 it was an independent city-state, and the richest city in the western Mediterranean.The native language of Genoa at that time was Ligurian. Columbus spoke several languages by the time he was an adult, including Latin, Portuguese, Spanish, and perhaps Catalan. So it is difficult to tie down his nationality from the languages he spoke in later life.

The next country to Dominican Republic to south is Venezuela.

The French people came to Trinidad in August of 1666 and began colonizing the area in search of riches. The French remained in Trinidad until the late 1700s when the British began exploring the area.

Columbus' first land fall on his first voyage was on the island now called San Salvador in the Bahamas on October 12, 1492. The natives that Columbus met there called the island Guanahani.

Columbus decided to sail West in an attempt to get to India due to the sparse knowledge of the globe that existed at that time. They did not know of North America, South America or the Caribbean. Columbus believe that if he sailed West, he would eventually reach India. As many European countries were competing for the spices in the East Indies, his idea was accepted by the Spanish monarchs. While he was not wrong in a sense, he was unaware of the giant land mass in the middle.

The conditions for the crew were almost as bad as the slave's conditions and the death rate was just as high!

Crew were beaten, whipped, chained, denied food, shot and even stabbed! It was a very dangerous job.
