Christopher Columbus: The Villain

Christopher Columbus has heard about Christopher Columbus in my life. From an early age, first of all, my family was talking about him, then I knew him at school. I really thought he was a hero. I teach him about him at grammar schools and junior high schools, so I think he is really a hero. But then he studied him looking for what he actually did and where he came from. I noticed that he is not a hero. There are many reasons people think he is good as they think they are bad for many reasons.

After deepening our knowledge of Christopher Columbus and his journey to "New World" I believe that Christopher Columbus is a villain. Christopher Columbus traveled to an unknown place in the western world using his courage and excellent navigation skills, but many indigenous people suffered from his voyage in the west. In 1492 Columbus began sailing east to find a shorter route to Asia. During his voyage he came to the Caribbean and Native American ... Christopher Columbus needed the skills and qualities necessary to travel well to unknown undeveloped land. Since he was initially at the top of the travel planning process, he accepted and accepted the idea of ​​finding access to China via meaningless water, he felt a serious dissatisfaction. With his efforts and persistence, his charm and wisdom, he was able to convince him to fund the Spanish kings and queen.

In 1492, Columbus sailed in the azure sea. And when he reached his destination he killed, raped and slapped the innocent locals. Is Columbus a villain? In my opinion, the answer to this question is yes. Christopher Columbus is a cruel, self-centered, delusive person. First, Columbus was a cruel man who enslaved, raped and killed locals in the country he was sailing. According to John Margolis' article by Goodbye Columbus, Columbus oversaw the murder of some people (Indians) and ordered the enslavement of others. An innocent locals who raped an Indian woman after attacking her with a rope, even rape himself. If these behaviors are not malicious, I do not know what it is.
