No, he did not marry, since he died before he got back to Spain from his voyage.
It didn't improve anything, but it got him killed.
Ferdinand Magellan was killed in the Battle of Mactan, Mactan Island, Cebu, Philippines, by a tribal chieftain named Datu Lapu-Lapu. A poisoned arrow hit him in the leg. A bamboo spear got him in the arm. When he fell, the natives fell over him with their spears. The Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan was hit by a poisoned arrow and killed with spears.
Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521) was a Portuguese explorer who led the first expedition that sailed around the Earth (1519-1522). Magellan also named the Pacific Ocean (the name means that it is a calm, peaceful ocean).
He didn't claim any. He sailed around the world and died in the Philippines, but his crew kept sailing and eventually got home.
roughly 23,000 miles... im actually not sure but its a slightly educated guess.
Ferdinand Magellan got the credit for that. But the first man to do it SOLO was Joshua Slocum, back at the turn of the 20th century, in the "Spray."
As the voyage progresses Ferdinand began to encounter some problems, word had got out that Ferdinand was Portuguese of origin. Several of the Spanish captains didn't trust Ferdinand and were said to have plotted to murder Ferdinand. The news spread quickly and chaos began to breakout among the crew. Some ruthless members of the crew attempted to murder Ferdinand, despite failing these cold-hearted men were executed.
