1492-2020 HISPANIC HERITAGE TIMELINE : Truth Versus Consequences We Did Not Cross the Border from Mexico, the Border Crossed US

The Hispanic heritage timeline from 1492 to 2020 evolved with Christopher Columbus and his famous discovery of America in 1492. The voyage for Columbus was sponsored by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand and the Royal Crown of Old Castile, present-day Spain. The voyage was done under the theory of Columbus that the world was round and not flat.Columbus sailed west to reach the East Indies to buy spices for the Royal Crown. Columbus did not find a short route to the East Indies by sailing west but found America for the Royal Crown of Old Castile. America had vast lands rich in gold, silver, and precious stones and large River Valleys. It was the ideal land for a new province to the Royal Crown of Old Castile.America was indeed claimed by the Royal Crown of Old Castile in 1492. At the time, it was not known that it was not just America but also the Americas--South, Central, and North America.So it was the Royal Crown of Old Castile that claimed the Americas, making a major impact on the rest of world. The Royal Crown sent the most trustworthy citizens to the New World, as it was known then, to explore, settle, and improve the new land.In essence, it was those of Hispanic heritage who explored, settled, and improved the Americas. The first settlers in present-day Texas, USA, and present-day USA were Hispanics.Without the Royal Crown of Spain and Hispanic heritage, Texas and the USA would have had a different status in the world of today. In essence versus consequences, the Hispanic heritage was the prelude to Texas, USA, and the USA regardless of how the belief has been for centuries. The Hispanic heritage, forever it will be.
