Columbus is often credited as discovering the Americas even though the lands he encountered were already populated by native societies that were soon after destroyed. Should Columbus be revered for this discovery?

To me this is kind of an opinion question, but if i were to answer this as likea. factual question it would be the same answer so imma just put my opinion

My opinions is that Columbus shouldn't be revered (to be honored) for this discovery, because he didnt discover it. But i do think he should be credited for exploring the Americas.

and like i said i think the answer is the same thing

the assassination of president lincoln was just one part of a larger plot to decapitate the federal government of the u.s. after the civil war. the first reaction to lincoln’s death was disbelief. then it quickly changed to grief. abraham lincoln’s death created an outpouring of grief from citizens in both the north and the south.

explanation:

lincoln was the first u.s. president to be assassinated. president abraham lincoln, america’s civil war leader, was assassinated just five days after confederate general robert e. lee surrendered his army at appomattox court house, ending the four-year war between the states. on the evening of april 14, 1865, lincoln was attending a performance of our american cousin at ford’s theatre in washington, d.c. john wilkes booth – a 26-year old actor, confederate sympathizer, and white supremacist – slipped into the presidential box and shot lincoln in the head. john wilkes booth and his conspirators had initially planned to kidnap lincoln to save the confederate states. but as the confederacy faltered, booth’s thoughts turned to murder. booth may have decided to act on his hatred after lincoln endorsed giving the right to vote to african-american men who had served in the union army.
