Answer:
The battle of Iwo Okinawa was a battle of the Japanese Imperial army military force against the U.S's military force.
On the U.S's side, they did it to attempt acess to mainland Japan, and on Japan's side they did it because it was mid WW2 and they couldn't let the allies stop their conquest to obtain China, the Korean peninsula, and the Philippine islands.
The battle went like this;
- The U.S invaded the island (in February 19, 1945) to try to get access to airfields of the island that was very near the coast (750 miles) of Japan to help plan an easier future mainland invasion into Japanese soil.
- The battle lasted for 5 weeks, making it an excruciatingly bloody battle, having around 7,200 people killed.
- The Japanese started running low on supplies so they had to surrender, U.S was victorious, the island fell into U.S forces.
- The U.S also then later captured Mount Suribachi in the island and planted a flag at the summit.
Casualties: around 7,200
NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN BATTLE: 70,000 U.S soldiers and 18,000 Japanese soldiers

I would say that Christopher Columbus was influenced by the travels of Marco Polo.
He was greatly inspired by his travels and wanted to become as famous as Polo was as an explorer, and eventually, he did follow in his footsteps. Polo's travels changed the European perception of the Asian world, and as you know, Columbus also wanted to go to Asia, but he ended up in America.
