On September 19, 1519, Spanish explorer Ferdinand Magellan set sail from Spain with a fleet of five ships on his expedition to find a westward route to the Spice Islands. This journey would ultimately lead to the first circumnavigation of the Earth, although Magellan himself would not survive the entire voyage. His expedition significantly expanded European knowledge of the world and paved the way for future exploration.
