He was a seaman and made many sea voyages. Most people in Columbus's days thought that the earth was flat and they did not believe that beyond the Atlantic Ocean lay India In 1492 the King and the Queen of Spain gave Christopher Columbus money and ships to go to India. So Christopher Columbus decided to reach India round the world. He believed that our Planet is round and he sailed west. There were 3 caravels: the Santa Maria, the Nina and the Pinta. After sailing 4000 miles he reached some land. The crew saw something like a white cliff and cried out: "Tierra! Tierra!". Columbus thought it was India.But it was not.It was a new land, a new continent – America.People called it “the New World’’.Columbus named the land they had reached San Salvador. European people came to the New World for many reasons. Some hoped to find gold and silver (күміс). Priests and missionaries came to bring the Christian religion to the Indians. Among those who came for freedom was a small group of English people called Pilgrims. They wanted to start a new life and to have no religious problems they had in England.In 1620 on the ship "Mayflower" they landed in the north-east of America. They set up a colony and called that part of the country "New England". EX: 2 P.111 QUESTIONS When did Christopher Columbus discover America ? Where was he born ? Where did he live for a long time ?
