1489: Isabel’s commission proves Columbus’ plans. During this,

for help for his voyage once again. Bartolomeo, the brother of
Columbus goes to France and England to find some support for the
voyage
1490: In Salamanca the commission of Isabel decides that Columbus
cannot go on this voyage because his calculations about the size of the
Atlantic Ocean might be wrong
1492: The end of the Spanish-Maurice conflict. The royal family
decides to give money to Columbus (April 17, 1429), so he can go on
Isabel the voyage. He also gets the rights of a Governor and the right to get a big part of the income that will bring the country that he’s supposed to discover
August 3, 1492: Columbus leaves Spain with three ships (Santa Maria, Pinta and Niña). In October, he reaches San Salvador, Hispaniola (Bohío) and the coast of Cuba. Close to the North Coast of Cuba, Santa Maria gets damaged. So the men on this ship have to stay in Cuba and they build a house out of the rest of the ship. They call it ‘La Navidad’ (= Christmas).

September 25, 1493: Columbus goes on his second voyage. He takes along 17 ships and Colonists, missionaries and royal servants. On this voyage he reaches Domenica, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and La Navidad which it was destroyed and all men who were waiting for Columbus to come back were dead. Columbus founds close to La Navidad the settlement ‘La Isabela’. The Spanish explore Hispaniola to find gold and there are the first conflicts between them and Natives.

1498: Columbus goes on his third voyage. He takes along eight ships and his brother Bartolomeo. Also the first women go to America.

1502: Columbus doesn’t really get a punishment
in Spain. They just take him the right to be
Governor. He goes on his fourth voyage to the

Coast and touches for the first time the American
continent in Costa Rica on September 25.
