Final Jeopardy Answer for April 24
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on April 24, 2025 is “Who is Christopher Columbus?”
Knowing that Granada (not the island of Grenada) is a city in Spain will help narrow down the list of notable names here. The Granada War, which lasted from 1482 to 1492, saw Isabella I and Ferdinand II conquer the Emirate of Granada from Muhammad XII of the Nasrid dynasty. After the war ended, Columbus was summoned to a meeting where the crown decided to fund his expedition west in the hopes of finding new trade routes, particularly to Asia. The rest is history.
