Question 12

Christopher Columbus received funding and support from the Spanish monarchy (Ferdinand and Isabella) for his voyages, so he sailed under the flag of Spain.

Hernán Cortés called the native woman (Marina, who was a translator and advisor) Doña Marina. La Malinche is also a name for her, but the question asks what Cortés called her, and he used Doña Marina (while she is also known as La Malinche in broader contexts, the specific name Cortés used was Doña Marina).

Answer:

A. Spain
