Answer:

The Treaty of Tordesillas was an agreement made between the Spanish and the Portuguese to solve the confusion that existed related to the newly claimed land concerning the New World.

The Portuguese's purpose was to keep their monopoly related to the trade with Africa, but they felt threatened. When Columbus found something important, the aspects regarding land became relevant.
