Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Columbus sailed to find spices and a new life style for the people of England. He was told by the queen to make a voyage and so he did. He tried to find Mexico but ended up in what is now today the Americas. Columbus thought that he could get to Portugal in the same amount of time as North and South American.
