Sir Francis Drake was knighted by Queen Elizabeth on 4 April 1581 for having "Circuited round about the whole earth." She banqueted on board the "Golden Hinde", his ship, and "Consecrated it with great ceremony, pomp, and magnificence, eternally to be remembered."
Drake's voyage fostered the principle expressed by the Queen "That use of the sea as of the air is cocommon to all, and that that the public necessity permits not it should be possessed." Whereas, neither Spain nor Portugal should have an exclusive rights to the sea.
