ok, so we all know the "pin the Zion on the Euroasia" meme.
here's the thing: even though there have been several threads on different locations for Israel, or locations which could become a Jewish state somewhere in the world, I do not recall any specific thread about Spain sending its Jews to the Americas instead of a general expulsion.
now, I freely admit I do not know too much about court politics in Spain in the late 15th/early 16th centuries, or how they set their immigration policies, so my question is what would it take for the king of Spain in 1492 instead of expelling the Jews out of Spain, to wait a few months untill Columbus returns and to decide to expel the Jews to the Americas? and how would that change the history of the colonisation of the Americas?
