Columbus Blog #8

Was Christopher Columbus a hero or a villain?
Christopher Columbus was a hero of his time. He sailed all the way from Spain to the West in search for a quicker route to Asia. Although he did not find this route, he discovered new lands. Christopher Columbus was the key to the discovery of the New World. Without him having found the land in the Caribbean, other explorers would not have been inspired as quickly to go West. Columbus plays an important impact on history due to the fact that he was the first of many explorers. He gave a head start to the foundation of new societies.
