Sonic's world and our world aren't the same, Columbus didn't found America in Sonic's world as America doesn't exist. Granted similar events may have occurred and if they did, what would be the issue in that?

"If they knew they contradicted some stuff, they never would've mentioned it." Mentioned what, exactly? Plus, I wouldn't say that they're aware of every contradiction they make, they most likely happen by accident, nobody's perfect. "Nobody's perfect" isn't an excuse.

But like I've said, I. Have. Given. Up. On. Sonic's. "Canon".

How is it not? Do you expect them to be flawless in everything they do? Are you flawless in everything you do? I doubt you are, so I don't know why you expect Sega to be.

Very well, but you should know that your issues with the Sonic canon stem from your own personal preconceptions of the Sonic world and not because Sega screwed up the continuity.
