  • Amerigo Vespucci - Naming a New World
    Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer, navigator, and cartographer (mapmaker) from Florence, Italy. At the invitation of King Manuel I of Portugal, he was hired to observe and map several voyages along the east coast of what we know today as South America.
    Between 1499 and 1502, Amerigo Vespucci determined that the landmass was part of a new continent and not part of Asia as Christopher Columbus proposed. Vespucci is generally credited for figuring out that Columbus discovered a whole “New World” and not the eastern outskirts of India and China.
    In 1507, Martin Waldseemüller produced a world map in which he named this new continent “America.” Waldseemüller took Amerigo Vespucci’s first name and latinized it to Americus, because Latin was the universal language for European maps. However, Americus was a man’s name and Martin Waldseemüller knew that continents, like ships, were always female. So, he took it upon himself to feminize Americus to “America” and the rest is history.
    For centuries, cartographers mapped the Old World as a single landmass divided into the three continents we know today: Europe, Asia, and Africa. Martin Waldseemüller started making a map with a single, fourth continent called America. Soon, other cartographers followed suit, and this “New World” became a standard feature on maps of the 16th century and beyond. The name “America” stuck because Martin Waldseemüller honored Amerigo Vespucci on his map, which was copied over and over again.

    Muslim already discovered America, but Muslim never conquest the new continent that they found, they just trade with with them, and Muslim already made the complete map of the world, because the stronger of Islamic empire in the Eastern Europe and North Africa, Spain and Portugal expand their empire in American continent.

    no, america is not named after vespucci, you don't call a country after your first name, otherwise there would be lots of Sidlands and Bertlands. You wouldn't name it after yourself anyway, you would name it after your king or patron. Even if he had dared call it after himself (an act of lese majestie, almost an act of war) he would have called it after his family name and you would all be living in the United States of Vespuccia. One of the other major explorers, especially in the north, was John Cabot, whose patron was the mayor of Bristol in England, and his name was Richard A Mericke, which is where the name comes from

      John Cabot was Italian. On both principles of your statement you failed. Go and cry on a shoulder of your limey brother in a limey pub.

      Vespucci had nothing to do with naming the continent.
