Well the answer is obviously c because they always tell us in school that he discovered America even though the natives were here long before the English were here.

Answer:

C. Americas now known as North and South America

Step-by-step explanation:

Either way, there is physical and recorded evidence that confirms the fact that Christopher Columbus was not the first European in North America. Though Columbus landed much farther to the south, Leif Erikson and his father, Erik the Red, established European colonies in North America long before Columbus was even born.

Hope it helps:))
