Americans get a day off work on October 10 to celebrate Columbus Day. It's an annual holiday that commemorates the day on October 12, 1492, when the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus officially set foot in the Americas, and claimed the land for Spain. It has been a national holiday in the United States since 1937.

America was discovered in: 1492

Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492.

He then later claimed this new land for Spain. He actually discovered America by accident since he was on a voyage to find a quicker route to Asia from Europe.

Hope this helps! :3
