Christopher Columbus was born in Italy but lived in Spain for a long time. He was a seaman and made many sea voyages.

In 1492 the King and the Queen of Spain gave Christopher Columbus money and ships to go To India. Why?

Because India was a very rich country, ’’full of gold’’. But the voyage to India was very long and very difficult.

So Christopher Columbus decided to reach India round the world. He believed that our Planet is round and he sailed west.

After sailing 6400 kilometers his ships reached some land. Columbus thought it was India. But it was not. It was a new land, a new continent – America. People called it “the New World’’.
