Columbus' major error about the size of the planet was that he thought it was smaller.

Explanation:

Columbus created a plan in the early 1480s which involved a sailing expedition west towards China. However, he needed funding from the Portugese Kingdom for such an expedition. There was lot of debate about the size of the Earth between Columbus and the Portugese.

According to him, the Earth's circumference was on an average, 18,000 miles.

However, the real circumference was 24,901 miles.

Columbus's major misconception was that it was a very small distance between the two ends (East and West) of the Eurasian landmass. By assuming this, he also ended up shrinking the size of the Earth in his calculations.

Answer:

Communism and Facism in principle are at direct odds with one another.

Explanation:

Communism in it's purest form would have the ultimate outcome of total equality among the people with no private ownership and really little to no government presence. In contrast, Facism in it's purest form is a complete authoritarian state with all power belonging to a central authority or dictator. What falters in each system is often dependent on a power struggle. Each system, along with other political systems, are based on haves and have nots, giving and taking, the aristocracy vs. the proliteriet, etc. In recent history, Facism tends to move towards socialistic or at least moderate ideals due to the complete oppression of the many. In the same way, Communism has struggled due to the existence of a hierarchy structure that often resembles fascism. The fascist components in a communist society often attempt to hide the fact that a fascist type authority exists.
