Ferdinand Magellan

Ferdinand Magellan underestimated the size of the Pacific Ocean and thought that the Spice Islands were only a few days away. However, the voyage lasted about four months. Magellan was the first to circumnavigate the world and cross the Pacific. He set out on this expedition voyage in 1519.

Magellan's ships entered the strait on November 1, 1520, but he was not the first to discover it. See Accounts Before Magellan

Magellan left Portugal for Spain in 1516. In 1517 he began preparing for the circumnavigation of the world. The voyage began in 1519 and ended in 1522. Magellan himself died in a battle in the Philippines in 1521.

I wouldn't really say that Magellan killed Lapu-lapu. He failed to do it due to Lapu-lapu's preparations for battle. He wanted to kill Lapu-lapu for his stubbornness for refusing to recognize the rule of Spain over his dominion. He wouldn't embrace Christianity is also one of the reasons why we wants to kill Lapu-lapu.

Ferdinand Magellan got killed on his journey around the world but still got the credit for traveling around the whole entire world

Actually Ferdinand Magellan was the first person to sail all the way across the world in 1519-1521. then Sir Frances Drake was then wanting to do the same as Magellan so he had went to sail off around the world. Magellan had sailed off with 250 men and 5 ships! it was a long and difficult journey some of his men mutinied or rebelled. he first reached the Philippines were he was killed in a fight with the native people. in September of 1522 18 survivers arrived back at Spain. They were the first people to circumnavigate or sail around the world!

Ferdinand Magellan was born in 1480, and at the age of 10, his parents died. Afterward, when he turned 12, he became a page for Queen Leonor. When he was a page, he was in a good school, and had a very good education. Ferdinand learned about the journeys of Vasco da Gama and Christopher Columbus. Later, he went on a Military Expedition that made him limp for the rest of his life. He first sailed in 1505, serving for Portugal. Magellan went to India with the crew of Franciscode Almeida. After a few years, he decided that he wanted to go on the biggest trip of his life. Going to find the Spice Islands starting from the east, copying Christopher Columbus. When he went to ask the Portuguese king, he refused. Magellan sailed to Spain to serve for them, and the king there accepted. His friend and former captain, Franciscode Almeida, wrote letters to him, telling him about different routes to the Spice Islands. Before he left on his largest voyage, he married Beartiz Barbosa, a child of an important official. Later, Magellan became a Spanish citizen, and even later, had a son named Rodrigo. In 1519, he set off for his major voyage.

Parents of Ferdinand Magellan were Rui de Magalhaes and Alda de Mesquita. His family had ties to the royal family of Portugal. After the deaths of his parents, he became a page to the Portuguese Queen. He married the daughter of his friend Diogo Barbosa, and they had two children.

On 16 March 1521, they caught sight of the island of Samar. This was Magellan's discovery of the Philippines for Spain. The date of Magellan's arrival on the Philippine shores has since been changed to 17 March 1521 to coincide with Magellan's crossing of the International Date Line on the Pacific.

Magellan was the commander of the first ship to circumnavigate the world. But his journey was not a lucky one. As he was Portuguese, many of his Spanish crewmen and captains of the other ships opposed him to the point of several mutiny's. He fought off all, but lost two of his ships by havary and one by a deserting captain. Before he could finish the journey, he was killed in attempt to help one of his Philippine allies against another Philippine chief, Lapu Lapu. He confronted an army of 1500 with just 49 men. And the enemy concentrated on him alone, while the other 49 escaped, and finished the journey with only 18 survivors in the smallest of the five ships

Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521) was a Portuguese explorer who led the first expedition that sailed around the Earth (1519-1522). Magellan also named the Pacific Ocean (the name means that it is a calm, peaceful ocean).

'''Ferdinand Magellan''' (Spring 1480 - April 27, 1521, Mactan Island, Cebu, Philippines) was a Portuguese maritime explorer who, while in the service of the Spanish Crown, tried to find a westward route to the Spice Islands of Indonesia. This was the '''first successful attempt to''' '''circumnavigate''' '''the''' '''Earth''' in history. Although he did not complete the entire voyage (he was killed during the Battle of Mactan in the Philippines) fellow Basque navigator Juan Sebastian Elcano completed the final westward voyage. As Magellan traveled farther west than the Spice Islands, which he had visited on earlier voyages from the west, he became '''one of the first individuals to cross all the''' '''meridians''' '''of the globe.''' He was the '''first person to lead an expedition sailing westward from''' '''Europe''' '''to''' '''Asia''' and to cross the Pacific Ocean. Magellan was the '''first European to enter the Pacific from the''' '''eponymous''' '''Strait of Magellan'''''', which he discovered'''. He was also the '''first European to reach the archipelago of what is now known as the Philippines''', which was unknown to the western world before his landing. Arab traders had established commerce within the archipelago centuries earlier. -Rupam Agarwal. Jai Uttarakhand. '''''if you are looking this up for fun you are a nerd'''''

He traveled what is today called the strait of Magellan, and discovered the pacific ocean

On November 28, 1520, having successfully escaped a storm in the passage now named the "Strait of Magellan", near the southern tip of South America. Magellan's expedition, which encountered severe weather and a mutiny, was in the area of southern Argentina from January, 1520, until October, 1520 (including the winter in the Southern Hemisphere). From November 1 to November 28, they navigated the stormy waterway which they named "All Saints Channel", arriving in the Pacific only after one of their four remaining ships turned back and returned to Spain.

Yes and no. Magellan is given credit for sailing around the world. however he died before making it back but he gets credit because his crew made it back to land.

he was known for circumnavigating the globe and showed proof that it is round.

First, with your indulgence, let me correct the grammar of the question: Whydid Ferdinand Magellan bring Christianity? (The best way to know how wrong the question was is to point out you'd never say, "When did you brought Christianity?" Or, "How did you died?" assuming you're talking to a ghost.)

The Renaissance period was when Spain and Portugal were the superpowers. Both were Catholic. Both paid obeisance to the Pope and respected his moral authority. Thus both even deferred to the Pope's preposterous act of dividing the globe into two spheres for both Spain and Portugal.

The main driving force behind the explorations of Spain and Portugal were economic, to find spices which were more precious than gold, and to also find gold.

Bringing Christianity to places they colonized and exploited was a way to appease their conscience for their ignoble deeds, to please the Pope, as well as to bring the fear of God among the natives and make them easier to govern.
