The Spaniards and Portuguese came to the East in search of new trade routes to Asia. They sought to bypass the Ottoman Empire, which controlled the lucrative overland trade with Asia. The Portuguese, led by Vasco da Gama, successfully sailed around the Cape of Good Hope and established trade networks in the Indian ocean. The Spanish later followed suit, with Ferdinand Magellan leading the first circumnavigation of the globe.
