He sailed from Spain, ruled by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella at that time.
The natives in Homonhon Island where Ferdinand Magellan and his men first disembarked where used to seeing strangers. Ferdinand Magellan and his men were met cordially and given a taste of Filipino hospitality--food aplenty. They were also welcome in Cebu, which was ruled by Datu Humabon. Datu Humabon and his family were the first native converts to Roman Catholicism. However, Datu Lapu-Lapu, the chieftain of Mactan Island, did not welcome Ferdinand Magellan and his men when he came to know of their strategy of converting natives to Roman Catholicism first so it would be easy to eventually dominate them politically. Datu Lapu-Lapu and his men met Ferdinand Magellan and his men with arrows and spears when they came to Mactan Island. Ferdinand Magellan died in this fight, popularly known as the Battle of Mactan. The rest of his men retreated.

In a strictly territorial sense, yes. Her country Castile was simply far bigger than Ferdinand's Aragon. But at the time, neither of them ruled "Spain": Ferdinand ruled over Aragon, Isabella over Castile. The usual male domination did not apply in this marriage and this equality was even laid down in their prenuptial agreement. Isabella was an able ruler, a shrewd politician and negotiator and she had a mind of her own. Ferdinand much admired her capabilities.
