Basically it was length. The traditional route eastward to the East Indies was really, really long and in order to reach it more efficiently and more cheaply Columbus decided to go westward with the notion he would accomplish this. But he miscalculated the size of the Earth and that led to many problems on his voyage.

How did plebians gain power in the republic (history)
Darina [25.2K]
In 494 BC the plebians detached and formed their own plebian council. they elected tribunes to protect their rights; with the tribunes they could not vote against unjust laws passed by patricians/the senate. the citizen assembly elected consuls, tribunes, and magistrates, could declare war and ratify peace treaties, and could approve or disapprove laws proposed by the Senate. They created laws that said patricians could no longer rule unjustly against them. Debt bondage was gone, priesthood was available, plebians could be in the Senate - but laws of the Senate apply to all while the citizen assembly's laws only apply to the plebians.
