Yes, maybe it would. But, what if the country of the VMS writer was able to send people to the American continent before Kolumbus?

I think that qualifies as a huge stretch  Wink 
Unless you count the Vikings. But this scenario is impossible. There is no indication of either Nordic or Pre-Columbian culture in the VM.

On the contrary: the script apears to derive from common central European 14th and 15th century scribal habits. And the images have a lot in common with manuscript genres found in Europe and around the Mediterranean, like herbals, De Balneis Puteolanis and Aratea.

Any American theory must pile one incredibly unlikely assumption on top of the other, to the extent that the only option left is to slash the whole thing with Occam's razor.
