Answer 1

The following statements correctly identify a feature of Columbus’s later voyages:

• Columbus found mainland South America.
• Columbus’s ships were stranded in Jamaica.
• Columbus died believing that he had reached Asia.

The other statements are not accurate; Columbus was not generally considered a peaceful ruler of Hispaniola, and he did not live out the remainder of his life in the Caribbean, as he returned to Spain.
