chosen: People believe that Christopher Columbus discovered America because he is commonly credited with the voyages that first resulted in Europeans setting foot on American soil. His initial voyage occurred in 1492, during which he sailed from the Spanish port of Santander and arrived at the Bahamas. He established a temporary colony on an island in the archipelago and proceeded to continue his voyage to what is now known as Jamaica, Cuba, and the mainland of North and South America. These colonies established by Columbus and his crew were later exploited by European conquerors and settlers, resulting in the establishment of various European colonies in the Americas. Since then, this event has become widely accepted as the moment when America was discovered.
