A. Lute are you in K12?
Because I had this question and made a 100%
The use of good guy or bad guy for a person doesn't make much sense.
I'll just list some major facts about Columbus and let you make your own conclusions.
Christopher Columbus believed the world was round. Others during his time didn't believe so. Columbus also thought that the world was smaller than what it actually is, principally because North America and South America were not yet discovered. Columbus went to many people and asked them to fund him, and finally the King and Queen of Spain funded him. When Columbus reached the Americas, he treated the natives harshly. He took their wealth, such as gold, etc, and made the natives slaves. And he brought back the riches of the Caribbean to Spain. Columbus never knew that he had stumbled across an undiscovered land, and instead thought he had reached India, where he was originally going for, and so he called the natives "Indians."
Hope that helped :)
European countries engaged in colonialism in the 1600s and 1700s for the main reason of expansion. This expansion resulted in <span>peacefully intermingling the cultures without </span><span>racism </span>and colonial massacres. The term colonialism refers to the developmental differential due to control of one people by an alien one, according to <span>Wolfgang Reinhard. Hope this answers your question. </span>
The Neolithic Era or the Stone Age
contributed greatly in the creation of civilizations for this was the period
where development in terms of agricultural practice, encouragement of
developing societies and cities took place. This was the time when men
started to domesticate plants and animals. This was somehow the transition from
the lifestyle of hunting and gathering to one of agriculture and settlement
which made way to the possibility of an increasing larger population during
that time. By doing so, they were able to produce more food which led to the
mastery of being artisans, merchants, government officials and other
professions needed to have civilization. It is said that for a civilization to
be considered legit, it must have cities, government, religion, social
structure, writing and art. And all these were evident and started during this
Period.
