Columbus sailed a latitude that he thought would bring him to what country?

English
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago

Answer: Japan

Explanation:

Christopher Columbus may have been the first recorded European to reach the Americas but this was not his original target. Columbus had wanted to get to Japan and from there, Asia and it never even occurred to him that the Americas might be in the way of this.

So he sailed on a latitude that he thought would take him to Japan which was why he mistook Cuba for China and Hispaniola for Japan when his voyage reached those islands.

Maslowich

Answer:

After returning from the past, he was left without understanding why he was not selected for the Slytherin but for the Gryffindor.

Explanation:

This question is about "Harry Potter and the cursed child", when he uses the necklace that allows time travel, to go to the past. On this trip he is faced with innumerable information that leaves him confused, mainly in relation to him and his father. When he finishes watching and returns from the past he is very thoughtful and does not understand why he was selected for the Gryffindor, since the past shows that he must have been in the Slytherin.
