According to popular legend Christophe Colombus, exposed to obscurantist stupidity of his contemporaries who though that Earth was flat,would have been right while everybody was wrong.
This is a piece of luck, for else he would died with thirst and starvation with all his crew, like everybody predicted it to him.
After Colombus death, the kingdom brings a suit to his son and heir, Diego, to take him the rights on America considering that it had allready been discovered and that Christophe Colombus knew it.At this time, the man in the street knew only Vespucci; it's Christophe Colombus biography, writen by Diego,which will spawn his legend.
