It was the longest cruise at that time, and it is worth noting
that Columbus' voyages were crowned with success, so he
was able to bring quantities of gold, and he also managed

to own many islands that he called the Indian islands, and
the King and Queen of Spain possessed joy with this
discovery, and then Columbus continued his journey
Exploratory, and was always a long-term view of further
exploration.

He prepared a maritime fleet consisting of seventeen ships

carrying 1500 sailors on board, and equipped with supplies
that would last for more than six months. This voyage also
did not fail, but was able to discover more modern islands,
including the Antilles and then the Caribbean Sea on the
southern side of Cuba. And he traveled all these distances

in pursuit of reaching and searching for India. In 1494 AD,
Columbus's ships landed in Jamaica, which enabled him
to reach many islands of the eastern American continent,
and in spite of that, he did not reach India until this
moment.

A group of scholars aroused a controversy about

Columbus’s discovery of the New World (America), and
the controversy of these scholars was based on
manuscripts that Christopher Columbus had written with
his own hand indicating that upon his arrival in America
he had found African antiquities, and it is noteworthy that
the Emperor of Mali had discovered America 200 years
ago. A year since Columbus arrived.
