As both an explorer and a privateer, Sir Francis Drake viewed exploring and finding new ports as a good financial venture. Queen Elizabeth wanted him to plunder Spanish ports and he was very successful at doing this. He traveled back to England in victory, bringing rich spices and Spanish goods after having circumnavigated the globe.
