History With Hilbert

Was Christopher Columbus A Catalan? | The Great Catalan Conspiracy (2020x17)

Air date: Mar 11, 2020

Famous historical figures like William Shakespeare, Leonardo Da Vinci, Christopher Columbus, Fransisco Pizarro, Hernán Cortés, Miguel De Cervantes, Erasmus and more are all national treasures for Englishmen, Italians, Spaniards and Dutchmen respectively. But wait! What if I told you that they all hailed from Catalonia and were all proud Catalans? Has Spain been subverting and Castile-washing history? (Obviously Not).
