After watching Christopher in action on “Conquest of Paradise” I believe that he was a very determine fellow who would not allow others to dictate his destiny. I like the passion that he had to go after what he believes in even when others doubted what he had set out to accomplish crossing the impassable ocean.However, I was not in agreement with him not being forthcoming to his fellow crew members about the distance and time it would have taken them to arrive on land. However, that was selfish of him to mislead the people to think that he know exalting where there would dock the ships.

In this letter to the Spanish rulers, Columbus uses his biased and untruthful description of “the Indies” in order to appeal to the monarchs and justify the exploitation of its people and resources.
Importance: Christopher Columbus is believed to have discovered what is now called the Bahamas when he set sail in search of a sea route to Asia (1). Christopher Columbus was the first European to find the new land, which is why he was believed to have discovered new land, but there were already Native Americans on the land so it’s hard to say the land was discovered by Christopher Columbus. Christopher Columbus set sail out of the Spain Port of Palos with three ships known as the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria on August 3rd 1492, and after 10 weeks on the sea land was spotted in the distance. Christopher Columbus was the leader on the ship but it was actually one of his sailors

Spanish exploration first began with a series of revolutions. First, the Commercial Revolution generated economic stability. Second, the Intellectual Revolution generated interest in the Earth's composition and the pursuit of exploration.

This revolution returned order and stability to the government and renewed interest in exploration to search for national wealth. The last of these revolutions was the religious revolution (note Columbus' voyage occurred before this revolution). As more people broke away from the national religion they searched for a place
It is no doubt that Nuclear is very powerful and that it can cause some good things to happen but we can not ignore the horrible things that it has done to our planet and ecosystem. There are two sides to this argument if we should close nuclear power plants or we shouldn't in my personal opinion I think that we should close these plants. But before I had to make my decision I had to do some research on both sides so here is what I found,
