Answer 6

@confluxepic Not really but I could say one thing.

When thinking of this Christopher Columbus is the best example of the 3 G's.

Queen Isabella let him go on his journey and funded it because he promised to bring gold. He found a new land so that gave him glory. And he turned some of the Indians over the Christianity. Three G's all in one short paragraph.

Ok. Thanks.
