Christopher Columbus wanted to go to India for riches and supplies. He asked King Ferdidnan and Queen Isabella if he could make his voyage to India because he thought the Earth was round. They agreed and supplied him with his goods. The People of Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe didn't know about the Americas so when he discovered them he thiought he was in India because the Native Americans had darker skin like Indian people and that is why he called them Indians.
He was trying to find a quick route to the Pacific East. Easter Asia would be a nice answer.
The first answer is true..... but not all.
He wanted gold, fame and anything he can get his hands on. He's wanted for rape, thievery, enslaving and genocidal murder. He cut the hands off of none paying slaves.
Alright, but that has nothing to do with his original intention with exploring the seas
He wanted to go to the western Indies,or Asia
he was going to India to find the northwest passage between India and China (known then as Cathay)
Christopher Columbus was trying to reach China on his first voyage around the world
