The goal to lead the first expedition to sail around the world was achieved by Ferdinand Magellan. He set out in 1519 under the Spanish flag, aiming to find a westward route to the Spice Islands. Although Magellan himself did not complete the journey, as he was killed in the Philippines in 1521, his expedition continued and successfully returned to Spain in 1522, completing the first circumnavigation of the Earth.
