Tyson is retarded like always
There are at least half a dozen events that make the American exchange look like nothing.

He might not have even been the first European in the 15th century to find the Americas, it could have been Portuguese or Italian explorers who purposefully kept their findings secret. In those days discoveries were like modern corporate secrets.
I still wonder why they believe that Columbus did anything??
Columbus ONLY had the idea. He would never have arrived in America without the expertise of Spanish sailors who contributed with the ships, money, expertise and sailors.
Even more Colombus wanted to go back to Spain several times during the voyage. The last time a Spanish captain told him to wait because he has seen maritime birds and the land could be close. 3 days later they arrived to America.
And Columbus almost did nothing there. The massive impact of the Discovery was done fully by Spain. Columbus died in the early 1500s, he did not conquer anything. It was Spain and Spaniards doing everything.
So, why people believe that the impact was done by 1 person?? Ridiculous. His project would never had success if it was not for Spain.
People talk about Columbus as if he did anything. It is like if I say that I know the best route to go to Mars, and if we land in Mars the following 1000 years they talk about me landing in Mars and the impact I had. What matters is how we reach to Mars and everything involved not that one guy had the idea to travel to the west (Columbus) or out of space.
Blao, blao. "It must have been the italians or the portuguese"... Ok, give us sources instead of fabulating. If you have no sources, shut up.
And if we are fabulating then we can say that "Spaniards" already reached America (probably before the Asians: "Native americans") with the Covis-Solutrense culture.
Also the Chachapoyas (arrived in America in European celtic times) were from Spain: celts from Galicia+phoenicians from Mallorca. It has been genetically proven since in those remote areas where Conquistadores never reached the main haplogroup is R1bDF27 and there are pottery related with Spain.
You’re retarded. Genoese also gave ships to the Portuguese and French governments in many occasions, Genoese ship builders were even called by the ruler of Galicia in the 12th century, and the Genoese server the Portuguese in explorations too. Thank of the Pessagno, Malocello, etc ... Genoese also gave ships to the Spanish in the Med in many occasions
They could’ve well done it on their own (as they did, later on in history). Open a book my dear Gonzalez
you are retardedx100.
Why the fuck does it matter that genovese "gave" (you mean SOLD?) ships to people that never discovered America???
I am sure the tanzanians sold ships to the nigerians at one point on history. Does it matters for what we are talking about fucking spastic??
The bits of Spanish-English in your post are amusing
If it makes you feel any better most of the facts we learn about Columbus are at ages 6-10 and they don’t make a strong point that he was even Italian. The Italian Americans like to play it up but by the time you’re old enough to know he’s Italian they start teaching that he’s evil
IRL Colon was Spanish:
https://www.niusdiario.es/espana/galicia/exhumacion-busca-demostrar-origen-cristobal-colon-noble-gallego-pedro-alvarez-sotomayor_18_3207497062.html
Too many arguments that refute that he was genovese. Just one of them: when writing letters to the Pope Colon did not use any italian dialects but latin.
Also his son Hernando wrote in italian and referred to his father as Cristobal Colon (the Spanish surname and not the italian Columbus). Also lots of other arguments.
Spain is French and the French are Italians
I agree. Most significant thing since farming.
The connection between the Old and New World was a seminal moment in human history.
Columbus established a permanent connection between the Old World and New.
>and the americas would have been discovered eventually,
Yet Columbus was the one to have the honor.
do not ever reply to me again you illiterate subhuman
Eat my ass.
Americans probably think Colombus landed straight into New York or some shit like that and then he founded the USA, most of them don’t even know the whole background of it.
Burger talking about history=Opinion invalid
Shut up retard
columbus was an important historical figure worthy of study and a certain amount of honor
but he himself wasn't THAT relevant, because the results of the discovery of the americas weren't mostly formed by his own actions. and the americas would have been discovered eventually, probably not too long after 1492 had he never decided to sail west.
a better statement would be "the opening of relations between the old and new worlds was the defining event of the past millennium"
of course the most important "thing" to ever happen would probably be the beginning of farming and sedentary life, whereas the single most world-changing individual action (as in the person who above all others changed the world the most based upon THEIR OWN actions, nothing that would have happened eventually anyway like discoveries) would probably be some great imperial thing in the ancient world, like julius ceasar winning the civil war, or maybe something in persia or china, I don't know.
Yes. Surprisingly based take from my nigga 'pop science' Tyson. Shout out to Spain Portugal and Italy.
Tyson isn't worth listening to on his actual field of expertise: astronomy. Why would his worthless opinion be correct on anything outside of that?
Christopher columbus is a made up character
And your mom is gay!
It's not a bad take
