Grant · Answer 1

I know for a fact that it isnt A or D, because trade in Africa was definitely a direct result. I am between B and C, because I was taught that Columbus was at first denied because of the Reconquista, however he was eventually funded by the Portuguese. So with process of elimination, I would say the best answer is C.
