Christopher Columbus

No. Christopher Columbus neither Spanish, nor did he ever reach the shores of North America proper. He was Italian, or more properly Genoan, and his explorations were limited to certain Carribean islands and some parts of the east coast of Central America.

Asia..but my theory is he was looking for indies which is referred to the South Asia region. If you look at the history it is Ceylon which has being famous for the spices (not India), and this was kept a secret because no one wanted anyone new to come and get the Spices from Ceylon. Unfortunately Ceylon (now Sri lanka), is in the shadow of the big neighbour. Ceylon has a rich history and culture.

The names of the three ships are the NINA the PINTA and the SANTA MARIA there aren't any nicknames

To find a faster route to asia

He should have sailed west or else he probably couldn't have sailed AROUND the world. He sailed west to find a route to Asia, and to prove that when you go west, you can hit Asia, to prove the world was round, i think. Then he hit America, naming the Native Americans "Indians" because he thought he was already in Asia.

In the first few decades of after Columbus's voyages, the primary effect was that large numbers of Native Americans were enslaved and forced to work on European projects. Columbus himself was infamous for the brutal way that he treated the Taíno people, the natives of Hispaniola island, forcing them into slave labor in the recently excavated mines. The work was so callous and so brutal that significant percentages of the Hispaniola Taíno population died from overwork and fellow Spaniards reported him to Queen Isabella, who was in turn so enraged at the conduct that she demanded he return to Spain. (Remember that this is the same "humanitarian" Queen Isabella who is responsible for the Spanish Inquisition.) The Native Americans died in record numbers (especially in the Caribbean) within decades of the Spanish arrival, primarily from foreign diseases, but also from this overwork.

Christopher Columbus had three ships when he left Spain. The names of the ships were the Nina, Santa Maria, and the Pinta.

what were two good reasons that Isabella could have given for not helping columbus when he ask the first time

The ships werevthe nina, pinta and the santa maria

Queen Isabella was very educated. As an adult she taught herself latin. She also read alot. Isabella kept her children very educated as well which is very unusual for the time.Yet she wasn't that educated to her children!

yes!

In order to teach the rest a lesson.

He sailed with three ships, La Nina, La Pinta , and la Santa Maria. He sailed on La Santa Maria. Tha ship "La Nina", was actually named the "Santa Clara" . It is believed the nickname "Nina" was given to it because the captains name was Nino.

he actually sailed on a wood ship

Isabella was Queen of Castile and Leon. With her husband Ferdinand II of Aragon she presided over the final defeat of the Moors in Spain, the eventual eviction of the Moors and the Jews, and the beginning of the Spanish Inquisition.

The voyage of Columbus marked the beginning of the Spanish exploitation of the Western Hemisphere. Although Columbus actually learned very little about the Western Hemisphere, he learned enough to interest other Europeans, which set off waves of invasions.

Colombia, on its creation in 1819 Actually, it was Gran Colombia when it was established in 1819 largely through the efforts of Simon Bolivar. This republic, replacing the Spanish Colony of New Granada, included the present day Colombia, along with what eventually became separate nations like Venezuela, where Gran Colombia's capitol, Cuidad Bolivar, was located. Gran Colombia was fragmented in 1830. Bolivar's attempts to establish a united states of South America came to an end because of the rounds of endless civil wars between liberals and conservatives which, in various forms, continues today. Bolivia, of course, was named after Bolivar.

Asia's good can't get to he europeans because of the Muslims so they have to look for a route that they can trade with the Asia directly. if they can find that route then they wont hav o deal with the Muslims.
The Christian Europeans did no like the situation, since region and politics. The Europeans wanted a sea route to Asia because of trade.

he greatly underestimated the size of the globe.

Christopher Columbus was believed to have robbed a Mayan trader and upon inspecting his booty, learning about cocoa beans at that time. He brought cocoa beans along with other treasures back to Europe. He thought they were some kind of nut and no one really paid much attention to them at the time.

Columbus thought that he was in Asia on his first voyage. What he did not know

was that he was in America.

According to The Columbia Encyclopedia he took 1500 colonists on 17 ships on his second journey to the New World.

On the first journey the Santa Maria had 40 men on board while Nina and Pinta had 24 and 26 men, respectively on board.

Probably not because he had many illegitimate children with other women over the years. However they both respected each other greatly and had a happy marriage, even if they did mainly marry for political reasons.

His ship was called Santa Maria. Well known other boats were Pinta and niňa.

No. He was looking for a water route to Asia.
