Answer:

Hi, Friend!

Columbus could not find the huge wealth he had anticipated. If he could not return with gold and silver, he would need another scheme. That plan was to enslave the natives. He promised the king "slaves, as many as they shall order."

On the second voyage, begun in 1493, Columbus ordered natives to be rounded up and returned to Spain to be sold. In February 1494, several dozen Indian slaves arrived in Spain. Columbus expected them to be sold and the money used to buy cattle and supplies to be shipped to the New World.

how did language spread from one proto-indo-european language to more than 6,000 languages we speak today?
amm1812

Answer:

We can thank geography for that. If you look at a map of Eurasia, you can see many massive mountain ranges and rivers, all of which separate early tribes apart. When one tribe is split apart for long enough, the people in each tribe develop their own distinct and unique identity, which also includes languages. There are several very interesting researches on this phenomenon online if you look deep enough and I do recommend you check them out, it's quite the fascinating read.
