people like the vikings and Carthaginians already made it in the Americas before them. Check out the latest archeological findings which display their alphabet and predate Columbus. They even found shit written in the Phoenician alphabet too.

>>16063264
Does it matter? They were all White.

>>16063264
Who cares if nothing came of it? Seriously. I mean Columbus kicked off then entire age of exploration that radically changed the world and led directly to colonization

>>16063264
Yeah, but he was the first to establish an ongoing knowledge of the Americas' existence.

Suck his big Italian balls faggot.

>>16063264
But none of that was of any historical signifance. Yes, the Vikings where there, but what changed? The discovery of columbus on the other hand sparked the age of colonialism, brought the columbian exchange and changed world history for ever. Thats why he is important. Why is it so hard for people to understand?

I don't grovel at the achievements of Italian niggers.

>>16063264
and? thats a reddit factorino. even if true it barely had any impact on history and is more an interesting point. columbus’s voyage was the spark for one of the most impactful long running events in human history.

Lief is litterally just a point to say

What does this have to do with literature?

>>16063264
yeah those retards and the chinese had the geographic advantage and yet they managed to do nothing useful, or even worse not even discovering it.

>is there a bigger historical cope
Blacks built America

>>16063342
so did cows but who cares about the labor of animals when its the designers who corralled them that deserve the credit?

>>16063236
wrong board

>>16063363
Do you not know what a cope is

Did slaves actualy ever work on constructions in big cities?

>>16063379
Washington I guess.
It’s pretty funny when you think about it because cities like Atlanta and Columbus they supposedly built were destroyed in the war needed massive reconstruction projects post-slavery

Ye OP here i fucked up

The Vikings discovered North America.

>>16063264
Never heard of the carthagians reaching America, but the Viking episode is just a nice historical anecdote. Nothing ever came from it, so it doesn't really matter.
Fun fact: in Cesar's the Bello gallico he actually mentions what probably were American natives that were washed on the shores of the French Atlantic coast. Unfortunately I didn't find any further information on this mentioning of Americans in Europe 1500 years before Columbus.

... how would that even happen? i didnt think the native americans had open sea worthy vessels and any castaways survive the journey? are you sure they werent moors or people from the verde islands that got swept up there? whats the passage?

>>16063502
or maybe one of the finic northern tribes that live in the norther part of the nordic peninsula. they may look a bit asiatic.
