The Age of Exploration: Columbus and the New World

In the pages of history, there are few moments as heroic as Christopher Columbus's 1492 journey to the New World.

On October 28, 1492, during his initial expedition to the Americas, he landed in Cuba, marking a noteworthy landmark in European exploration and the shaping of connections between the Old World and the New World.

Christopher Columbus, a Genoese explorer, was commissioned by the Spanish monarchy to find out a new trade direction to Asia, and his historic voyage in 1492 unintentionally led to the discovery of the Americas, forever changing the course of world history.
