Columbus Day is the commemoration of the landing of Christopher Columbus in the New World on October 12, 1492. This year, Columbus Day falls on October 9, which is a national holiday in the US. Unofficially the day was celebrated in many cities in the US since the 18th century. Eventually, from 1937, Columbus Day had become a federal holiday honoring the great Italian-born explorer's achievements at the same time celebrating Italian-American heritage.GenesisHistory has it that when Columbus started the sea voyage two months prior to the landing on October 12, with the support of the Spanish Royals, King Ferdinand, and Queen Isabella. When the Italian was contemplating on setting sail taking the western sea route to China, India and the gold and Spice Islands of Asia, eventually, Columbus reached the Bahamas. Columbus thus became the first European to set foot on the Americas, since the Vikings established colonies in Greenland and Newfoundland during the 10th century.
