Ferdiand Magellan was the first to sail completely around the world. Christopher Columbus discovered the Carribean Islands, John Cabot reached present-day Canada, and Vasco de Gama found a trade route around Africa to Asia.
On November 28th in history, Ferdinand Magellan began his journey across the Pacific ocean. Also on this day 54 people were killed by car bombs in Syria.
Magellan, though Portuguese by birth, captained a Spanish fleet with the intention of reaching the Spice Islands (Maluku, Indonesia) by sailing west around South America. The expedition, from 1519-1522, became famous as the first to sail completely around the Earth. After Magellan was killed during a battle against natives in the Philippines (1521), the Basque captain Juan Sebastian Elcano took command and completed the voyage by sailing west around Africa. Only one ship out of the original five made it back to Spain, and only 18 of the 270 crew members (4 others survived and returned after capture by the Portuguese).
