I heard about this recently and I am curious about the details. Who was the first country to discover that Spain found new lands, and what was the reaction of the rest of the European World?
Pretty much the only thing I know is that Portugal asked the Pope to give them rights since they were catholic too...
It is not true. I have an answer to a very similar question from a year ago that may be useful to you, as it is very much in line with this question.
