Christopher Columbus travelled around the southern tip of Africa and it was dangerous and difficult.
Christopher Columbus is a Italian sailor and proposed finding a new route by sailing west. Columbus thought that if he sailed west he would end up in eastern Asia. Christopher Columbus has been travelling around the whole of Europe for seven years to find someone who would finance his journey.
The monarchs would make fun of him and say that he was too risky and dangerous to attempt such a voyage around the globe. Finally Columbus arrived in Spain. For many years Spain was caught up in civil war. In August 1492,they granted Christopher Columbus the supplies,men and ships he needed to carry out his expedition.
