Bio1590 02/04/21 6:18:46 AM #1 | https://www.speaker.gov/newsroom/2321-0 After several conversations and literally running away from reporters, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Q-CA) made clear that he is refusing to take action against conspiracy theorist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. As a result, the House will continue with a vote to strip Greene of her seat on the esteemed House Committee on Education & Labor and House Committee on Budget. McCarthys failure to lead his party effectively hands the keys over to Greene an anti-Semite, QAnon adherent and 9/11 Truther. --- |

Topic | Was Christopher Columbus stupid for reaching America and thinking it was India? |
Bio1590 01/31/21 1:13:41 PM #37 | Norman_Smiley posted... I don't get where this idea that Columbus thought the world was smaller than it was is coming from. Because he did. Not only did he use completely wrong values and units (not counting for conversions), he straight up changed geography to fit his beliefs. https://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/at-work/test-and-measurement/columbuss-geographical-miscalculations Washington Irvings overly imaginative A History of the Life and Voyages of Christopher Columbus notwithstanding, it was widely known by the 15th Century that the Earth is spherical. The question was, how big is the sphere? In 200 BCE, after all, Eratosthenes calculated the circumference of the earth to within one percent of its actual girth. He figured that one degree of latitude was equal to 59.5 nautical miles. --- |

Spain didn't grab The Philippines until the 1520s. It took them almost 30 years after Columbus landed in the East Indies to finally reach Asia. Their trade route ended up having to go across the Pacific and then the Atlantic. --- |

The spice trade literally drove the world economy for centuries and Genoa was one of the main trade centres when Columbus was born and grew up there. This has nothing to do with the Spanish potentially not knowing what Indians look like, it's all on Columbus. JBaLLEN66 posted... Cristopher Columbus is a **** human being, but it's not like he knew there was a different continent lmao Columbus being an idiot has nothing to do with North and South America actually existing. It's solely: 1) He massively overestimated how wide Eurasia was in terms of longitude. 2) He massively underestimated how far west India/China/Japan were, partly because of 1 and partly because he used the wrong fucking units in his calculations There's also no evidence he ever actually believed he hadn't reached the Far East, despite the fact all evidence would point to the contrary the longer he stayed there and the more he explored. And don't forget that just 5 years after Columbus landed in The Bahamas, Vasco da Gama sailed south around Africa and up its east coast and made it to India for the Portuguese, which eventually led to Portugal having complete control of the spice trade in the early 1500s. --- |
