Queen Isabella I Queen Victoria Queen Elizabeth I Queen Nefertiti Isabella 1 Answer: Christopher Columbus asked King Ferdinand & Queen Isabella of Spain to sponsor his voyage of exploration. Queen Isabella refused Columbus at first but eventually agreed to sponsor the voyage. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella gave Columbus three ships, a crew of about ninety men, and some money. The voyage led to the opening of the New World and to the establishment of Spain as the first global power which dominated Europe and much of the world for more than a century.

Steve Martin George Carlin Chevy Chase Bill Cosby 2 hours ago, Aubrey said: George Carlin My guess too!! Answer: George Carlin hosted the first episode of the show we now know as Saturday Night Live. When the first show aired on October 11, 1975 with George Carlin as its host, it was called NBC's Saturday Night because ABC featured a program at the same time titled Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell. After ABC cancelled the Cosell program in 1976, the NBC program changed its name to Saturday Night Live on March 26, 1977 (and subsequently picked up Bill Murray from Cosell's show).

Sarah Silverman Robert Downey Jr. Steve Martin Julia Louis-Dreyfus 2 hours ago, Aubrey said: Rober Downey Jr That's who I thought! Answer: Sarah Sliverman, Robert Downey Jr., and Julia Louis-Dreyfus were all cast members fired from the late-night sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. Contrary to popular belief, Steve Martin was never a cast member on the show. The misconception stems from the fact that he has hosted the show 15 times, in addition to doing occasional surprise appearances. Steve Martin is the only person to host a season premiere, a season finale, and a Christmas show and is the only person to host the show three times in a single season. (He did the "wild and Crazy guys" so many times, I thought for sure he was a cast member!!!!!!!)

Ferdinand Magellan Leif Eriksson Juan Ponce de Leon Marco Polo On 10/13/2016 at 3:40 PM, Gail said: Lief Eriksson I agree Answer: Leif Erikson was an Icelandic explorer and is generally believed to be the first European to reach North America, some 500 years before Christopher Columbus. Leif Eriksson was the son of Erik the Red, founder of the first European settlement on what is now called Greenland. In 1964, President Lyndon Johnson signed a proclamation that declared October 9 to be Leif Eriksson Day in honor of the Viking explorer, his crew and the country’s Nordic-American heritage.
