Short bio Christopher Columbus (1451–1506)

Christopher Columbus was born in the Republic of Genoa, in what is today Northwestern Italy.

Columbus, of course, was more entrepreneurial than an academic figure and had gained a considerable body of maritime experience during the trade expeditions to Ireland, to Iceland, and the West African coast. The majority of historians believe his birthplace was in Genoa to a Christian family, from a 1498 testament and several Genoese records of famous conquistadors.

Towards the end of his life, he was frequently in physical pain from his journeys.

Columbus is venerated by many European Americans as the man who helped put America on the map. In March 1943, the novel "duck's beak waterlogging" (also known as "mountain torrent") was published. He also served as a member of the National Association of literary writers, member of the China Federation of literary and art circles, member of the Secretariat of the Chinese writers' Association, member of the editorial board of people's literature, member of the Beijing Municipal Federation of literary and art circles, vice chairman of the Beijing Writers' Association, and President of the Research Association for a dream of Red Mansions.

During the period of Tsinghua University, Wu Zuxiang's literary creation was at its peak. In the early days of liberation, he participated in land reform, went to North Korea to visit the Chinese people's Volunteer Army and other social activities. Was Christopher Columbus Italian?
