So, Christopher Columbus wasn't the first person to get to America. Regardless, he landed in American shores in 1492. The reason people say he discovered it is because he did discover it for Europe. For example say you found a new product. You would say you discovered it. You don't mean you're the first one to ever find it. You simply mean you've discovered it for yourself.

zzz [600]
<span>In the Han Dynasty, a cluster of calamities, prodigies, and heavenly omens meant that the emperor had lost the mandate of Heaven. The success or failure of the people was thought to be controlled by the gods, along with who should rule. If an emperor was no longer deemed acceptable, natural disasters or disastrous occurrences were taken, then, that the emperor no longer held the gods' approval. This was reason enough to overthrow or replace him.</span>
