Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Magellan are significant figures in the Age of Exploration. Columbus is credited with opening up the Americas to European exploration and colonization after his 1492 voyage, which marked a turning point in global history. Magellan is known for leading the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe, demonstrating the vastness of the Earth and the interconnectedness of various lands. Their journeys expanded European knowledge of geography and paved the way for global trade and cultural exchanges.
