Why did Magellan went to Spain?
The Treaty of Tordesillas, of 1494, gave the route around the tip of Africa to the Portuguese. It didn't take the Spanish long to realize that the Americas were new continents. They were lying across the route to the Spice Islands, in the Pacific, that Columbus had been looking for. Therefore, the Spanish King, Charles I, determined to find a route to the Spice Islands that Portugal did not control. In the meantime, Magellan, who was Portuguese by birth, who had sailed on voyages of discovery and conquest for Portugal, fell out of favor with the Portuguese King. The King absolutely refused to allow him to sail for Portugal. Magellan moved to Sevilla in Spain. There he studied charts of the world and fell in with 2 cartographers. They proposed a project to Charles I to find a second route to the Spice Islands and he hired them.

King John II of Portugal rejected Columbus' request for support in his voyage to find a westward route to Asia because he believed the plan was unfeasible and underestimated the distance to Asia. Additionally, Portugal was already focused on exploring and establishing trade routes around Africa, which seemed more promising. Columbus's proposal did not align with the strategic interests of Portugal at the time, leading the king to decline his request.
