Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Christopher Columbus' voyage to the New World was financed and supported by Ferdinand II of Aragon and his wife Isabella I of Castile, the King, and Queen of Aragon. The couple became known as the "Catholic Monarchs".

Christopher Columbus mentioned in his diary that it was the couple who sponsored his expedition. Talking about the year 1492, Columbus wrote, <em>"In the same month in which their Majesties [Ferdinand and Isabella] issued the edict that all Jews should be driven out of the kingdom and its territories, in the same month they gave me the order to undertake with sufficient men my expedition of discovery to the Indies."</em> And that same year, the monarchs ordered the expulsion of Muslims and Jews from Spain.

Thus, the correct answer is true.

What did Rockefeller do during the depression
Anton [14]
Of course, John D. Rockefeller lost a little money during the Great Depression but he was still a billionaire. He had stock and other assets which lost value but he held on to them until they recovered their value. 

<span>John D. Rockefeller is an interesting person. He could compartmentalize business and personal like a mobster. He was absolutely ruthless in business. He drove competitors out of business with unfair practices like demanding kick-backs from railroads. One competitor he put out of business was affiliated with one of his brothers. That brother never talked to John D ever again. John D's son was to take over his business, but when he saw the tactics regularly employed, he begged off. </span>

<span>But personally, John D was quite generous. He would carry around a roll of dimes and hand the coins to everyone he met. Also, the Rockefellers were quite frugal. One of John D's other brothers worked with him and he became rich but obviously not nearly as rich. That brother led a more opulent life style than John D and his family. The Rockefellers should say things like "We're not the Vanderbilts" when in fact the Rockefellers had much more money than the Vanderbilts or anyone else. </span>

<span>But all in all, due to his business practices, I would have to say that John D. Rockefeller was an odious character.</span>

The art of the Renaissance is more realistic than the art of the Middle Ages. Why is this?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Renaissance gave importance to the human and his rationality, while Middle Age art was more allegorical and linked to the divine world and its possibilities towards humanity. Middle Age art was also often concerned to represent heavenly and apocalyptic sceneries. The Renaissance celebrated man's intelligence to build and construct and to be the cause for a possibly good life.
