    I am an explorer trying to find a quicker way to India. I tried to ask Portugal if they want a quicker way to India but they thought the earth was flat. Spain accepted me to find a quicker way to India. In 1492 I found India? I don’t think this is India because it has a different landscape. I think i discovered a new continent where somehow Indians made it here first. I was born in 1451. I came to India for a quicker way to trade with India because we want those spices.

    About Christopher Columbus

    I'm Christopher Columbus, an explorer commissioned by Spain to find a faster route to India. Despite the prevailing belief that the Earth was flat, I set sail in 1492 and stumbled upon a new continent, which I initially mistook for India. I was born in 1451 and my mission was to establish a more efficient trade route for spices.

    A random fact that I love is...

    The Earth is not flat, despite what many people believed during my time. I proved it by sailing west to reach India, only to discover a new continent instead.
