Question: What incorrect term for the indigenous population originated with first explorer to discover new land west of the continent with the river Ebro?

The Americas came to be known as the "West Indies", a name still used to refer to the islands of the Caribbean Sea. This led to the names "Indies" and "Indian", which implied some kind of racial or cultural unity among the aboriginal peoples of the Americas. Application of the term "Indian" originated with Christopher Columbus, who, in his search for Asia, thought that he had arrived in the East Indies. This unifying concept, codified in law, religion, and politics, was not originally accepted by indigenous peoples but has been embraced by many over the last two centuries. [citation needed] Even though the term "Indian" does not include the Aleuts, Inuit, or Yupik peoples, these groups are considered indigenous peoples of the Americas. <SEP> portuguese discoveries (portuguese: descobrimentos portugueses) are the numerous territories and maritime routes discovered by the portuguese as a result of their intensive maritime exploration during the 15th and 16th centuries. portuguese sailors were at the vanguard of european overseas exploration, discovering and mapping the coasts of africa, canada, asia and brazil, in what became known as the age of discovery. methodical expeditions started in 1419 along west africa's coast under the sponsorship of prince henry the navigator, with bartolomeu dias reaching the cape of good hope and entering the indian ocean in 1488. ten years later, in 1498, vasco da gama led the first fleet around africa to india, arriving in calicut and starting a maritime route from portugal to india. portuguese explorations then proceeded to southeast asia, where they reached japan in 1542, forty - four years after their first arrival in india. in 1500, the portuguese nobleman pedro álvares cabral became the first european to discover brazil. <SEP> In 1492 the joint rulers conquered the Moorish kingdom of Granada, which had been providing Castile with African goods through tribute, and decided to fund Christopher Columbus's expedition in the hope of bypassing Portugal's monopoly on west African sea routes, to reach ``the Indies ''(east and south Asia) by travelling west. Portugal's neighbouring fellow Iberian rival, Castile, had begun to establish its rule over the Canary Islands, located off the west African coast, in 1402, but then became distracted by internal Iberian politics and the repelling of Islamic invasion attempts and raids through most of the 15th century. Only late in the century, following the unification of the crowns of Castile and Aragon and the completion of the reconquista, did an emerging modern Spain become fully committed to the search for new trade routes overseas. The Crown of Aragon had been an important maritime potentate in the Mediterranean, controlling territories in eastern Spain, southwestern France, major islands like Sicily, Malta, and the Kingdom of Naples and Sardinia, with mainland possessions as far as Greece. Twice before, in 1485 and 1488, Columbus had presented the project to king John II of Portugal, who rejected it. <SEP> bermuda's modern black population contains more than one demographic group. although the number of residents born in africa is very small, it has tripled between 2000 and 2010 (this group also includes non-blacks). the majority of blacks in bermuda can be termed "bermudian blacks", whose ancestry dates back centuries between the 17th century and the end of slavery in 1834, bermuda's black population was self-sustaining, with its growth resulting largely from natural expansion. this contrasts to the enslaved blacks of the plantation colonies, who were subjected to conditions so harsh as to drop their birth rate below the death rate, and slaveholders in the united states and the west indies found it necessary to continue importing more enslaved blacks from africa until the end of slavery (the same had been true for the native americans that the africans had replaced on the new world plantations). the indigenous populations of many west indian islands, and much of the south-east of what is now the united states that had survived the 16th- and 17th-century epidemics of european-introduced diseases then became the victims of large-scale slave raiding, with much of the region completely depopulated. when the supply of indigenous slaves ran out, the slaveholders looked to africa). the ancestry of bermuda's black population is distinguished from that of the british west indian black population in two ways: firstly, the higher degree of european and native american admixture; secondly, the source of the african ancestry. <SEP> Located only a short distance from the river Ebro, this is also becoming a popular destination for anglers from all over Europe.
