U.S. History - Chapter 2 Reflection

What caught my interest while reading Chapter 2 was a fact I never knew: Christopher Columbus sailed to the Americas during the Renaissance. Throughout the history classes I have taken, I was never told of or aware of this. I took AP European History in the 10th grade, and even then my teacher at that time did not tell us this fact
I also wondered how the people living in that time figured gold is worth so much. It became widely popular as currency and spread widely throughout countries.

Update!

I need to start updating my blog more often. I haven't had time to due to other assignments I have for other classes. Let's begin again!
