Amerigo Vespucci (born March 9, 1454 in Florence; died February 22, 1512 in Seville) is an entrepreneur and Explorer, member of the Spanish and Portuguese expeditions to the New world. This part of the world, America, was named after him. From a family of businessman, received an excellent education at home, he studied mathematics and astronomy. After his father's death in 1478, he served in the banking house of Medici, from 1493 — the agent of this house in Seville and Cadiz. With 1495 engaged in the supply and training of overseas expeditions for the purpose of disembarkation of the colonists. 1500 entered the service in Portugal. May 31, in 1501 the Portuguese expedition departed in search of the mythical Strait Cattigara, which, according to Ptolemy, is from Eastern Asia to India. And the open of the earth by Columbus was considered the Eastern edge of Asia. The expedition headed for the South Atlantic. Vespucci was the first European scientist, who explored the coast of Brazil and the Gulf of La Plata. The nature and lifestyle of the local population convinced him that this was not Asia but a new world. On July 22, 1502, the expedition returned to Lisbon. Immediately on his return, Vespucci wrote to the Duke of Medici a letter describing the expedition. It ended with the assumption that the new lands in the West is a special mainland (terra firma lat.). In 1504, in Florence, came essay on astronomy under the title "Mundus Novus", a New Light, written on behalf of Vespucci. The authorship of this composition is disputed, it contains quite boastful passages, the style is different from that of letters 1502. However, the name "New Light" caught on, and then in honor of Amerigo cartographers named the name "Americus," the continent of this "New world". Amerigo Vespucci, in 1508 took Spanish citizenship until his death he filled the post of chief pilot of Spain.

My favorite sport is volleyball. It is in this sport that I am extremely good and agile. Volleyball for me is not just a hobby or hobby, it is my life, without which I would not be just bored, it would be just uninteresting to live and I would grow up lazy and not physically developed. Volleyball is a very interesting sport, and there, in principle, as in all games, have their own rules that must be obeyed. In volleyball you need to be not just fast, you need to be agile and have a fairly well-developed reaction. The reaction is important, at least because if you do not want to get on the face will need to catch the ball quickly and immediately.

Volleyball is a very interesting sport, and it does not seem so difficult if you know how to play it. The game is simple, the rules are such that the minimum number of players is six. Three are on one side and the other three are on the other side of the volleyball net. Each player must follow the rules of the game and know his exact place. Otherwise the game will not work.
