The Catholic kings had to consider the risks (cons) and the opportunities (pros) that carrying out the expedition proposed by Christopher Columbus meant.

<h3>Who was Chirstopher Columbus?</h3>

Christopher Columbus (1451 - 1506) was a navigator, viceroy and governor general of the West Indies in the service of the Crown of Castile. He is one of the most famous characters in history for having discovered America on October 12, 1492, when he arrived on the island of Guanahani, in the Bahamas.

This trip was financed by the Catholic kings Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain who gave Christopher Columbus financial aid and granted permission to access prison navigators.

At that time, Columbus' plan was rejected several times because the king's advisers considered it unfeasible. However, the queen always trusted him and later the king gave him her support.

The kings saw in the proposal several opportunities such as:

  • Discovery of new lands.
  • New trade routes.
  • Trade growth.

However, there were also difficulties such as:

  • They did not have great resources for the recent expense in the War of Granada.
  • It could be a waste of money for being an adventure into the unknown.
  • They did not have the backing of the royal council.

Despite the refusal of many, the trip was carried out and brought great benefits to Spain, which greatly increased its territory and obtained economic wealth for a long period of time until the independence of these colonies.
