    Answer: To find a new route to India.

    Explanation: Columbus wanted to find a new route to India, Columbus however knew that the world was round and realised that by sailing west, instead of east around the coast of Africa, as other explorers at the time were doing, he would still reach his destination.

    During Columbus lifetime, he led a total of four expeditions to the New World, discovering various Caribbean islands, the Gulf of Mexico, and the South and Central American mainland, but never accomplished his original goal, a western ocean route to the great cities of Asia.
