Answer:

Columbus was the first explorer Spanish sponsored.
They started the settlement on the island of Hispaniola.
They discovered the Mississippi River, San Salvador, and the Pacific Ocean.

Explanation:

Christopher Columbus was the first explorer to propose the Spanish kings an alternative route to reach India since the first one on that time was harder to access since the fall of Constantinopla. That route consisted on sailing off from Spain to India eastwards as he stated the Earth was round and then there should be a path to India sailing toward the east. He was the first spanish explorer to do such travel and as the first explorer sponsored by the Spanish Crown to travel to what they will later known as America. Columbus Arrived to an island which is Modern-Haiti and settled their first base there. They called that island La Hispaniola.

Other Spanish explorers were famous for the discovery of other iconic places. For example, Hernando de Soto found Missippi River; Pedro de Alvarado was the conqueror of the land that would be the first village of San Salvador, and Vasco Núñez de Balboa was the first Spanish explorer who saw the Pacific River.

Until 1925 there wasn’t legal requirement to separate the operations of commercial and investment banks, the investment banking was consisted of JP Morgan & Co, Kuhn, Loeb & Co, Brown Brothers and Kindder, Peabody & Co. Their funds could be used to fund the underwriting business of the investment baking side.

In 1929 everyone was putting their savings into stocks, not only the wealth part but the poor part too and because of that the stock market reached the peak in August 1929. But than the production declined causing unemployment and with that the stock prices were much higher than their actual value. The economy was struggling, the debt was rising and the banks had and excess of large loans that couldn’t be liquidated.

In the 1930s over 9,000 banks failed because people didn’t trusted them to put their saving. The Great Depression the official unemployment rate was 25% and the stock marked declined 75% since 1929. But in 1933 now with Rooselvet’s administration he took immediate action about the economic woes first announcing that all banks would close, Bank Holiday. The Congress would pass reform legislation and reopen the banks. In “first 100 days” Roosevelt’s administration stabilized the industrial and agricultural production and created jobs and also created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to protect depositors’ accounts and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to regulate the stock market and prevent what happened in 1929.

The big change between the crises in the 20s and 30s were all about who was in charge, President Hebert Hoover didn’t take much lead about the crises but Roosevelt did.
