Christopher Columbus had many challenges to face while he was living not only on the land, but also when he was sailing the ocean blue. One challenge that he had to face was trying to get support from royalty. King John III of Portugal turned Christopher down first. Columbus then turned to Queen Isabela and Kind Ferdinand for help and support. They granted him a small ammunity. They then after a couple of unsuccessful trys Columbus gained thier control and trust. That is how Columbus came over this particular challenge.

Christopher Columbus had a major impact on the world. He impacted many countries such as: Canada, U.S.A., Cuba, and much more. Christopher Columbus effected Canada in a major way. Columbus effected Canada because he discoved our neighbour that shares a continent with us. That effects us because America is a major resource centre to us Canadians. Columbus is important to use because in the U.S.A. Columbus has his own day! That is only just how Columbus impacted Canadians.
