History
1 answer:
Mashcka [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Keep this little phrase in mind: <u>gold, glory, and God.</u> In that order. The reason the Catholic monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand sponsored Columbus was

  • <u>gold.</u> They wanted to get rich off of gold, which would enable them to increase their wealth and trading power as per the economic system of mercantilism.
  • <u>glory.</u> They wanted their names to be famous. Two of the islands that Columbus saw were named after the two rulers (Isabela Island and Fernandina).
  • <u>God.</u> They were highly Catholic (remember the Spanish Inquisition?) and they wanted to spread that, in theory, to the primitive natives.
