America's full name is "America", and how did it come from? between the late 15th and early 16th centuries, the Europeans opened the way to India and the Americas, thus speaking of the discovery of the new continent of America.

The first inhabitants of the American continent were the Indians. At the beginning of the 16th century, there were still very backward, some just entered the feudal principle, some are staying in the phase of tribal society. At that time, in some Western European countries, capitalism has grown. The emerging bourgeoisie was eager to loot wealth from abroad, especially to find gold, and therefore the adventures to open new routes. The Italian Genovese Columbus, with the support of the King of Spain, from 1492-1504, four times flew west to America. He successively discovered islands and lands such as Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Dominica, and met Honduras and Panama in Central America, and even reached the Orenocco river on the shore of the South American mainland. The result of Columbus

Nearly at the same time as Columbus sailed on his expedition, a man named Amerigo sailed three times to the north of South America, which Columbus ¡°discovered¡± in the seven or eight years of 1497-1504.

After America returned to Europe, he painted a new map and published an extensive travel book: The Maritime Travel Stories Collection. The book concluded that this place was not India, but a new ¡°continent.¡±

Born on March 9, 1451 in Florence, Italy, he died in 1512 and was a famous navigator.
