Synopsis "Romans Found America: American Copper Fueled the Empire"

If you didn't already know, the Romans needed copper badly and they knew just where to get it. The Phoenicians had found the source centuries earlier and called America Ophir. The Egyptians used the Phoenicians to find the Americas and some of them stayed. The Greeks took a more northerly route, Island hoping from Britain, to Iceland, to Greenland, and to North America. They called America Ogygian. Rome was to do the same around 50 BC, but there was a problem. The people of Britannia would strip off their clothes, paint their bodies blue, and fight to the death. It would take 100 years to control the blue people so they could safely fuel their empire. To hide America as their mineral source, they made up a massive mining area in Asia that never existed by 400AD the mining requirements lessened and soon Rome would collapse leaving very few the secret of America. In 775 the old stories were tested as the Muslim hordes tried to invade Europe and had almost completely taken Spain, Italy, Greece, Sardinia, and Corsica and had made advances on France. The quasi-Roman settlers would find America again and establish a colony until the European Crusades finally pushed the Muslims out and restored safety in southern France. This is the story and evidence.
