Ferdinand Magellan hoped to find a westward route to the Spice Islands (the Moluccas) in Indonesia, which were highly sought after for their valuable spices. His expedition aimed to establish a new trade route that would allow Spain to compete with Portuguese dominance in the spice trade. Additionally, Magellan was motivated by the desire to claim new territories for Spain and to demonstrate the potential of global circumnavigation.
