The voyage by the Portuguese explorer on the behalf of Spain was the first to sail completely around the world (1519-1522).
Magellan himself died in the Philippines in 1521, eighteen months before the voyage was completed in 1522. Only one of his five ships, Victoria, completed the circumnavigation of the globe, with just 18 survivors of the 250 who started the journey.

The main record of the voyage is the journal kept by the Italian scholar Antonio Pigafetta, who served as an assistant to both captains.
