THE WORLD BEFORE COLUMBUS
The great and fearless voyage of Columbus?

But then a poor, ambitious and adventurous Genoese named Columbus, who had read many ancient treatises on geography, was an idea which was as bewitched. Where would that come over the sea? By dint of sailing west, in the end would come east! In fact, the Earth is round! It's a ball! So it was written in alcunilibri antiquity. Sailing westwards and then always doing half way around the world, would anivatinel Far East, China or the rich and fabulous in India. There were gold, ivory and rare spices. How would been easier to cross the ocean with the help of the compass instead of crossing deserts and high mountains as he did cross a AlessandroMagno time and were still as the caravans of merchants who carried the silks of China in Europe! For its new route, so Columbus claimed, would raggiuntal'India in a couple of days, rather than as many months for the old road. And so he told all of his plan, but everyone laughed at him. A mad! Yet he never gave up, "Give me ships, give me a ship, and I'll try and viporterò gold wonders of India>> He went into Spain. There, at the time, in 1479, had a wedding statiuniti through the reigns of two monarchs Christians who struggle with a tough gliarabi kicked out of their beautiful capital Granada scacciandolidel throughout the country, where they had dominated for 700 years. Columbus did not find any enthusiasm for his idea or the royal court to the English or Portuguese. But if nothing else, they look at the famous University of Salamanca, which declared it impossible. Colombo waited another seven years begging, "Give me ships!>>, And just as he was leaving Spain to go to France, met for a case that was the Monaco confessoredella Queen Isabella of Castile. The confessor was struck by the theory of Columbus and spoke to the queen, who granted another hearing in Columbus. And here He nearly ruined everything again. What I would ask for if his plan had succeeded, it was not a small thing. He wanted to be noble fact, he wanted to become viceroy of all territories that Indians would discover, he wanted to be admiral and keep one-tenth of all taxes in the new lands, and much more. And when she turned him away, Colombo he left for France. So though the countries he had discovered would become the domain of the French king, and that the Spaniards were afraid. They did call back and then gave him roquello he wanted. They gave him two bad sailing ships were sunk, thinking that if they would not have lost anything, and third was leased by Columbus himself. So set sail ocean sailing westward, more and more to the west, heading for India.
