In 1521, while circumnavigating the world, Ferdinand Magellan would discover the Philippine Islands and claimed them for Spain. While he was in the Philippines, Magellan would become embroiled in local politics that eventually would see him cut down and killed in the beach surf attempting to reach his ship.
