Columbus Day (Christopher Columbus Day) is a U.S. holiday portrayed as the discoverer of the New World on October 12, 1492. This holiday is bit controversial because the European settlement in the Americas led to the termination of the history and culture of the indigenous peoples. It was unofficially celebrated in a number of cities and states as early as the 18th century but did not become a federal holiday until 1937.
