The search for sea routes to India from Europe to directly acquire Asian commodities was the driving force behind the Voyages of Discovery that profoundly changed the map of the world and world history. As Asian commodities became essential items of European life, domination of Asian trade by Asian and Middle Eastern merchants became a source of increasing financial cost to European consumers, particularly to Portugal and Spain at the western-most end of the European continent. Since the early part of the 15th century Spain and Portugal had been competing to find a direct sea route to the commodity markets of India and Asia. At the end of the 15th century the Italian navigator Christopher Columbus, under the patronage of the Spanish monarchy, set out from Spain on a western route, underestimating the circumference of the earth and expecting a shorter route to India in that direction.
