The first English captain to sail around the world was Sir Francis Drake. His expedition, which took place from 1577 to 1580, was the second successful circumnavigation of the globe after Ferdinand Magellan's. Drake's voyage was significant not only for its navigational achievement but also for its contributions to English maritime power and exploration. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth I upon his return for his accomplishments.
