Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Christopher Columbus' voyage to the New World was financed and supported by Ferdinand II of Aragon and his wife Isabella I of Castile, the King, and Queen of Aragon. The couple became known as the "Catholic Monarchs".
Christopher Columbus mentioned in his diary that it was the couple who sponsored his expedition. Talking about the year 1492, Columbus wrote, <em>"In the same month in which their Majesties [Ferdinand and Isabella] issued the edict that all Jews should be driven out of the kingdom and its territories, in the same month they gave me the order to undertake with sufficient men my expedition of discovery to the Indies."</em> And that same year, the monarchs ordered the expulsion of Muslims and Jews from Spain.
Thus, the correct answer is true.
If you are asking about the first president of the United States, the answer is George Washington.
