Was Columbus really a conqueror? was he the bad guy? explain your reasoning 5 sentences​
Degger [83]

Answer:

1.Christopher Columbus was a fraud.2. He was indeed a brave and prolific explorer.  3.but he also was a brutal evil man who never even made it to the place that is now the United States.4. We all believe that Columbus is a villain than a hero.

5.First of all, according to Wikipedia, A hero (masculine) or heroine (feminine) is a person or main character of a literary work who, in the face of danger, combats adversity through feats of ingenuity, bravery or strength, often sacrificing their own personal concerns for a greater good. However, based on what we have learned about Christopher Columbus, what he did has nothing to do with the definition of hero. His motivation to take the travel was to arrive in India, a country in east Asia, to obtain gold. From this perspective, his motivation was not noble. In addition, he did not arrive in India.

Secondly, he set a bad example to colonists came later. According to the article “Christopher Columbus: Hero or Murderer?” by Whitney DeWitt, it is said that “Columbus’s arrogance and exploitation regarding slavery began on his second voyage. Ferdinand and Isabella had ordered that the natives be treated kindly. In opposition to this order, Columbus began exporting slaves in great numbers in 1494.” His way to treat the native residents was improper and rude, which is bad model to colonists who came later. A hero is supposed to be a decent man who get rid of bad reputation. Columbus’ behavior did not conform to the standard.

Because of the reasons given above, it will be hard to classify Christopher Columbus as a hero. His motivation to come to American continent was not noble. He set a bad example to colonists who came later. In addition, his arrival caused a catastrophe to local residents. Therefore, he is more like a villain than a hero.

Why did the Mexican war of independence start what are the causes?
sammy [17]
Two things that helped spark the revolution were the salons and the location of Mexico. The revolution went on for 11 years, with much of it being fought by the peasants and low class citizens. Also, because of this divide the revolution had two different leaders when it first began. Because the country remained divided between upper and lower class, the Mexican forces were able to be easily defeated, thus making the revolution long and drawn out. An effect of this was that the rebel army had many different commanders, thus making it hard for any one of them to lead the revolution for long, with Morelos only serving for four years before his execution in 1815. This frequent change in command made it difficult to bridge the class divide and unite the country.
