Columbus lead an expedition from the Kingdom of Castile, which was one of several kingdoms then in what we now call Spain. He lead it because he convinced the Queen, Isabella of Castile, that it would be a reasonable risk for her to fund the expedition to reach the far east, where valuable spices could be found and brought to Spain. The fact that he was Italian made little difference to such a calculation. He was hired to perform a function for Castile.
