What would happen if Columbus hadn´t discovered
America?
This topic is
about one important event that happened in 1492 when Christopher Columbus was
alive. These voyages had, therefore, an enormous impact in the historical
development of the modern Western world. Columbus changed history, empires,
vegetables, politics, navigation, religion and Spanish law. His objective was
to sail west until he reached Asia, but Columbus didn’t think that he was going
to discover the New World.
In those days
Columbus wanted to get precious and expensive things like gold and pearls.
However, he discovered America, but what would happen if Columbus hadn´t
discovered America?. The consequences will be a lot, also they would be really
important to history because it would change a lot of things. For example,
Columbus reach to this land because of lucky and what would happen if he didn’t?
There have been
many studies and researches until now about that question. The consequences
that I know are that if the New World had not been there for Columbus to land
on, then Columbus and his crew would have perished from starvation at sea.
Another one could be that he never could have crossed the Ocean to China. That
would be horrible for them; however, they survived and discovered a new land.
Fortunately the
discovery of America helped a lot to the future. Also, if you consider the fact
that many Europeans felt that there was nothing beyond Europe and that the
world itself was flat. I would say that the discovery of a new world by
Columbus had a huge impact until now. For me it opened up the world of trade
and also it was the beginning of the Age of Exploration.
