Pope Alexander VI issued the Bulls of Demarcation in 1493, which split the non-Christian lands of the Western Hemisphere between Spain and Portugal to resolve colonial disputes between the two Catholic powers. The other options are incorrect: he did not grant North America to France, refuse land to England over Protestantism (England was still Catholic in 1493), encourage crusades for Jerusalem in this context, or grant the Dutch control of Africa.
