The True Story: Christopher Columbus

S.S Project...

[@Luzitanium]

Colombus was a agent from the King João II of Portugal to remove the spanish from the portuguese way to India, there is documents which the portuguese king calls colombus as "the friend of portugal" and most of the lands names which colombus discovered are names from Portuguese places, like Cuba.

Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2! My favorite piece

[@templarinter]

Nice touch- "The Death March"!
How absurd - to blame Columbus as a murderer is the same as to blame all road engineers for all accidents.

[@lexiconsays]

I'm a 9 year old and I understand this stuff

[@Emileessong]

This really helped me with my school homework and i see him as not a really good person .my views have changed.

[@JCBCr0ck]

if he were still alive today we would call him worse then hitler

[@Contrabender]

How is possible in medieval times one civilian foreigner talk and ask to the kings a crew to an adventure trip?

[@jityr2]

And he was supposedly a devout Cathiolic.

[@missikechkechqua1110]

The Spaniards were not here first.

[@PapagenoJuan2]

How can you say that to a man who never landed in America. Columbus actually landed in the Bahamas, Cuba and South America. The first people to actually reach North America were the Spanish in 1513. Columbus was Italian and never met a Native American in the modern USA.

[@roberttorres5429]

The entire land is the Americas stretches from the Canada to Argentina genius

[@cubaniche123]

Christopher Columbus never came to the U.S or knew about it he only went to the Carribean and Central america....

[@nightflight83]

@no1dinneh
So this is the fist time you ever heard these things about Columbus? I've known it for decades.

[@lexiconsays]

Christopher Columbus never discovered America

[@darrellw82]

How would you like out history being taught to kids?

[@KhalWills]

No, it's Italian: Cristoforo Colombo

[@whatthetech7647]

He didn't viciously murder them. in fact the first settlement was viciously murdered by the natives. In short, the natives started it. but the rest of what you said is more or less true

[@The3goofykids]

im doing a 5th grade book report on this. this gives me no info why he took risks on his journey. i diden't even watch the whole video 'cause of that!!!!

[@greymort8783]

your right it was Spain to blame not Columbus. Hes not even Spanish...

[@PnutButterNbicheZ]

My last comment was directed at slenders. Couldn't get youTube to reply somehow

[@PnutButterNbicheZ]

Or whatever his name is I didn't care to steel it right just to get the point across

[@Contrabender]

His family was poor but he was estates owner before its trip and he had contact and talk to the iberian kings?
Is very confused m8,but Ok. ^^
I think he was a Iberian Mercionary known by the kings that used fake identities.

[@TOproFORthis]

@specter2012 You must remember that it was NOT only the Spanish who viewed these people like this, infact, this was normal for people to do(enslave people) back then. Such as the Africans who enslaved their OWN people and the muslims and so forth. Your basically calling your ancestors Hitlers...He made an impact both bad and good...ignorance was blist back than and still is.

[@NoGuyComesClose]

@dapeck04 Agreed!! Personally IMHO any individual who sides w/any group loses personal understanding...Leaving them in a tug of war over political correctness which society today seems to have a strangle hold on.... If one is teaching CC and knows they are feeding doubt toward children but goes along with it due to a paycheck, one might not be a teacher, they could be nothing more than a payroll pretender...Happy Thanksgiving

[@lexiconsays]

He was in the caribbein

[@blssdfall27]

well, that is what you get from roman values

[@barthill9578]

[@darrellw82]

Our* that we are all twisted killers by heart?

[@stickpeoplerule100]

[@PnutButterNbicheZ]

@specter2012 hey im spanish and thats unfair, besides it isnt like the rest of europe sat back and just watched dont all whites say blantley all over our country "This is America!" so its not just spaniards but all europeans!

[@Avilacrazy]

Your music gets a little too loud for your voices...

[@blssdfall27]

and where's the genocide?

[@Ardnevad]

I am star ship captain now, take your genocidal ass off of my bridge~

[@Dylanmg420]

@annajanuary
but they did not start the slave trade like the Whites did

[@PnutButterNbicheZ]

@selenadelos wow dood that is so ignorant in so many levels i wont even retaleate. im spanish and i almost found this ofensive, but then i realize that you stereotype or jusdge without knowing. such a person would not be open minded to sugestion, or reason like were not all the same. have a great day Senor!

[@otomis2000]

"Indians enslaved blacks." Let's presume this to be true. Who brought the black people over from Africa?
The argument that these people enslaved those people and those people enslaved these other people is just ridiculous. Ever hear, "Two wrongs do not make a right?" That's like you justifying burning down your neighbors house by saying, "Well, the other guy down the street burned down his neighbors house so that absolves me of any culpability and makes it OK." Lame argument.

[@whoisglev]

i knew he was a froud!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MorganDoYourThing]

So..why the hell is there even a 'Christopher Columbus' Day? This guy was awful!

[@Diogo_1143]

WE WORKED FOR PORTUGAL NOT SPAIN!!

[@elissadon]

@arkbishopbonkerboy During that time, exploring and conquering other cultures was exceptible, the spaniards had just a few years earlier liberated themselves from the muslims. england was conquering the irish... and so forth.... the indians fought back!!!! and were not the victims some people believe!!!! Christopher Columbus witness his soldiers get captured by the indians and tortured!!!! cutting open their chests, drew out their palpitating hearts which they offered to the idols before them

[@MEJESSALICIOUSE]
