(p. 1 European Exploration) In October 1492, Columbus landed on the island of Hispaniola (present-day Haiti and Dominican Republic). Columbus believed that he was in the outer islands of the Far East, and he made three more voyages in search of a path to Asia. During the last three voyages, Columbus reached the major islands of the Caribbean, which he named the West Indies. It was not until 1507, a year after Columbus's death, that cartographer Amerigo Vespucci suggested that Columbus had landed on an entirely new land that was far from Asia. (p. 2 European Exploration) Although Spain's new claims created the Spanish Empire, the extent of its lands was still unknown.

Honduras became a state in the United Provinces of Central America in 1821 and an independent republic with the fall of the union in 1840. By 1968 the Lopez Arellano regime seemed to be in serious trouble.

I calculated within ten days we would reach Asia, so we stocked on our necessities and then we left and headed towards the Canary Islands of Africa. On the 3rd of August, 1492, we left the Canary Islands and into the Atlantic Ocean to explore the new route I entailed. At 2 0’ clock in the morning of the October 12th 1492, I heard ¡Tierra! ¡Tierra!
