4. What do you think Columbus meant by "new heavens and new earth?"

Explanation:

This means a New World in which they can explore and make themselves at home in the land in hopes to make it their own. Columbus meant to seek out this new land in which he called the New World because it would give them a fresh start on everything

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.
