Given the scope of violence in Mexico, calculating its economic impact is necessary to assess the financial burden it places on the country's society.
According to the 2018 Mexico Peace Index (MPI), the cost of violence in Mexico in 2017 was 4.72 trillion pesos (US $249 billion).
This is the equivalent of 21% of the country's gross domestic product.

In 2017, the federal government set aside only 1% of GDP for public order and safety expenditures.

So the Spanish sent Columbus to find a shorter root to Asia. Columbus didn't set out looking for America, it was just a happy accident.
The main reason why France initially sent fleets to Newfoundland was to "fish for cod," since this fish was in high demand, had a decent amount of nutritional value, and was abundant in this region.
