As a well-educated and well-connected young man, it was easy for Magellan to sign on with many of the different expeditions departing from Spain and Portugal at the time. In 1505 he accompanied Francisco De Almeida, who had been named Viceroy of India. De Almeida had a fleet of twenty heavily-armed ships, and they sacked Islamic settlements and established towns and forts in north-eastern Africa along the way. Magellan fell out of favor with De Almeida around 1510, however, when he was accused of illegally trading with Islamic locals. He returned to Portugal in disgrace, and offers to join new expeditions dried up.
