The reason being that the knowledge about "that land to the West" was known to at least some Europeans.

We may have descended from the Mayans and our religion would all be the same. Slavery would not be apart of our history because we would've never found out about the Africans.

If Columbus had never discovered the Americas, we would've most likely been practicing the same religion as everyone.
