Christopher Columbus Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, a port city in Italy, in 1451. This is the name we know him by today but his actual name is Cristobal Colon in Spanish, or Cristofero Colombo in Italian. He first went to sea at the age of 1465 at the age of 14. He was a deck boy and he had to clean, cook and mend clothes. By the age of 30 he was an experienced sailor and a skilful navigator. He had made many journeys to the South Atlantic from his home the Madeira Islands. He also sailed to Bristol and Galway. Many people believed that he had also sailed to the north of Iceland in 1477. During those visits Columbus heard stories about life to the west of Europe. His ambition to find the shortest and safest sea route to the riches of the Far East started to grow. Gradually he worked out his plan to reach the East by sailing west. In 1482 Columbus...
Christopher Columbus, Letter to Ferdinand and Isabella Regarding the Fourth Voyage (1503) [Jamaica, July 7, 1503] Of Española, Paria, and the other lands, I never think without weeping. I believed that their example would have been to the profit of others; on the contrary, they are in an exhausted state; although they are not dead, the infirmity is incurable or very extensive; let him who brought them to this state come now with the remedy if he can or if he knows it; in destruction, everyone is an adept. It was always the custom to give thanks and promotion to him who imperiled his person. It is not just that he who has been so hostile to this undertaking should enjoy its fruits or that his children should. Those who left the Indies, flying from toils and speaking evil of the matter and of me, have returned with official employment. So it has now been ordained in the ...
Christopher Columbus Christopher Columbus was born in 1415 in Italy. Although the exact date of Christopher's birth is unknown, he is believed to have been born between August 25 and October 31. He was the oldest of five children in his family. His father was a wool weaver. He helped his father with the weaving, but he always wanted to sail the seas. He didn't get to go to school very much, but he learned to read and write Spanish during his travels. He also taught himself Latin because all the geography books were written in Latin. He was a navigator, colonizer and explorer. He wanted to find a short way to get to the Indies by ship. He tried for eight years to get King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella to supply him with ships and money. Finally they agreed. In 1492 Christopher left from Spain with a crew of 90 men ...
Suured maadeavastused Kuni keskaja lõpuni oli Eurooplaste ettekujutus maailmast üpris piiratud. Lisaks Euroopale teati põhja-Aafrika rannikut ja Lähis-Ida rannikut. Venemaast olid üpris hägused ettekujutused. 13. Sajandil oli Veneetsia kaupmees Marco Polo käinud Hiinas. Sellest kirjutati isegi raamat, aga see oli üpris fantaasiarikas. Maadeavastuste põhjuseid oli mitu: 1) Lähis-Idast tulid kõige kallimad kaubad. 2) Kaugelt tulnud kaubad olid väga kallid, sest vahendajaid oli palju. 3) Hakkasid levima jutud, et kusagil kaugel on suured rikkused. Retked tegid võimalikuks järgmised asjaolud: 1) Võeti kasutusele paremad laevad. 2) Hakati kasutama ka kompassi. 3) Tekkisid esimesed algelised maakaardid. Esimestena alustasid retkedega 15. Sajandil portugallased. Nad sõitsid piki Aafrika rannikut lootes, et see ei ulatuks kaugele ning siis nad tahtsis sõita ida suunas. Aafrika oli suur j...

At the time when Columbus discovered America, there were about 10 million Native Americans. During the next 200 years, people from several European countries sailed across the Atlantic to settle the New World. Native Americans suffered from the hands of the new settlers. A many educated people from Ireland, like teachers or doctors, left their country and came to America. They wrote letters to their families, where they said that America was full of new opportunities for everybody. In the middle of the 19th century many British people started they journey to America from Liverpool. A great number of settlers were the Irish who left their country after the Irish Potato Famine on 1845-1849, when families lost their main food, the potato crop. During the journey, many people suffered from illnesses or died. When the boats arrived at Ellis island, new settlers often had to wait a medical examination. As many Irish immigrants were uneducated...

Alates vanaajast kuni 15. sajandi II pooleni toimus maailmapildi avardumine ning geograafiliste teadmiste laienemine järk-järgult tänu vallutus-ja kaubaretkedele. Eurooplaste maailmapilt laienes ristisõdade ajal ja ka mongolitega võitlemise käigus. Märkimisväärsed avastusretked Aafrika lähistel, Indiasse, Skandinaaviasse, Islandile ja sealt edasi Gröönimaale olid kindlasti inspiratsiooniks varauusaja maadeavastajatele. Põhjuseid suurte maadeavastamise alguseks oli mitmeid. Üks põhjustest oli kindlasti vajadus väärismetallide järele. Euroopa riigid kulutasid hiigelsummasid sõjapidamisele ja ülemkiht ihkas idamaiseid kaupu nagu siid ja vürtsid. Kõige selle eest tasumiseks oli tarvis raha, mida kulla- ja hõbedanappuses puudu jäi. Raha oli maadeavastuste üks olulisemaid põhjuseid. Kaupmehed unistasid suurtest kasumitest, kuningad soovisid uusi maid ning rikkusi. Samuti oli Euroopa kohati üleasustatud ning lihtrahvas kanna...

ANANASS Joonas Niine Harilik ananass (Ananas comosus) on troopiline taim bromeelialiste sugukonnas. Ananassiks nimetatakse ka taime söödavat vilja. Ananassiistandustest saadud ananassi vilju süüakse värskelt, küpsetatult, konserveeritult ja mahlana. Ananassi lehti (sisaldavad ka bromelaini) kasutatakse ka söödamaterj alina. Ananassis on päris suurtes kogustes C-, B-, A- ja E- vitamiini. Ananassi kasvatatakse maailma eri paigus. Suurimad tootjamaad on Tai, Brasiilia, Hiina ja Mehhiko. Havail kasvatatakse maailma ananassidest kolmandik, sealhulgas konservananassidest pooled. Ananassi avastas Columbus, kui ta Ameerika avastas, sealt võttis ta 5 taime kaasa ja andis need kuiningale, kelle aednikud proovisid seda kasvatama hakkata.

Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief A film review by Bill Gibron The new Harry Potter wannabe, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, gets so many things right that when it goes astray (which happens with more and more frequency as it goes along) you kind of wish it hadn't tried in the first place. Unless your last name is Harryhausen, you shouldn't really maneuver Greek mythology, and you definitely don't need to use it as a source from some Shrek-inspired collection of tired pop culture riffs. Yet that's exactly what this Chris Columbus helmed half-success does. We begin by learning that the fabled gods of old do exist, and that Zeus is especially mad at brother Poseidon. Seems the head hocho's magical lightning bolt has been stolen, and each accuses the other of using the crime as a means of starting an all out Olympian war. Zeus specifically blames Poseidon's son, Percy Jackson, and soon, all th...

Ananass Taavi Traks Sillaotsa Kool 8.Klass 2013 Ananass Ananassi kodumaaks loetakse LõunaAmeerikat ja selle nimetus pärineb indiaanlastelt. Columbus avastas ananassi 1493. aastal ja paar aastat hiljem viis selle Euroopasse ja sealt edasi Aafrikasse ja Aasiasse. Ananass Ananass on väga külmakartlik taim, kuid seevastu väga saagirikas. Aastas annab ananass kuni 4 x saaki ja siis raiutkase taim maha. Kui on aeg uut taime mulda panna siis võetakse roheline osa maha ja pannakse see mulda. Ananassil on ilus violetne õis. Ananass Ananassil pole seemneid. Kõige suuremad ananassid kaaluvad 15 kilo kuid kõige maitsvamad jäävad 1 kilo ja 1,5 kilo vahele ja vilja alaosa on magusaim asi ananassi juures. Ananass sobib kõige paremini liha,kala ja magustoitude juurde. Ananassi lehtedest on tehtud kangast ja viljalihast veini. Ananass Ananass kasvab maapinnal mitte puu otsas nagu paljud arvavad.
