Answer:

A

Explanation:

In 1492, Christopher Columbus was funded by Prince Henry I of Portugal. Columbus wanted to reach a new path to the Indies, because of their gold and spice supply. He sailed along the Atlantic, hence "In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue." However, he only made it to the Caribbean, despite taking four separate voyages and called it The Indies, naming the locals there Indians.

Columbus wasn't the brightest ship on the seas...
