Take the following as truth: After all, the waters of the Canary Islands, only 445 km (275 miles) to the south, had occupied busy shipping lanes for very nearly a century, and Genovese maps from the mid-14th century depict both Madeira and Porto Santo.
Then the following statement: "The Canary Islands have been occupied by busy shipping lanes for its entire lifespan." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: False
