S1E1 Christopher Columbus

As explorers flocked eastward in search of China, Columbus was convinced that a westward journey would lead him there in just two weeks. Gaining the backing of Queen Isabella of Spain, he embarked on his voyage. After three weeks at sea with no land in sight, his crew grew restless and threatened rebellion. Just as Columbus contemplated retreating, land finally emerged on the horizon. In that moment, he achieved his ambition, marking the moment America was unveiled to the world.
