A law from 1455 still has
importance today in the legal system of the United States.

Schools taught Christopher Columbus "discovered" America - U.S. history books portray him as a hero. They failed to mentioned "the doctrine of discovery" = invade, enslave,

"The International Legal construct known as the Doctrine of Discovery, has served as the Foundation of the Violation of Indigenous Peoples Human Rights" - U.N.
The Doctrine of Discovery is a principle of international
law dating from the late 15th century. It has its roots in a
papal bull or decree issued by Pope Nicholas V in 1452 that specifically sanctioned and promoted the conquest,
colonization, and exploitation of non-Christian territories
and peoples.
