Who was the first man to cross the Pacific and circumnavigate the globe, and how did he overthrow a violent mutiny?
2022 marks the 500 year anniversary of Magellan and Elcano’s landmark circumnavigation of the globe. It was a turning point in history: an incredible three-year voyage that opened the gateway to the modern age. Before, people saw the world in a completely different way. It was considered much smaller. Seas were thought to be inhabited by monsters. There was no concept of how the world was connected.
In circumnavigating the globe and charting the world, Magellan and Elcano opened the door for the West to rich, new opportunities to expand their colonial reach. The Age of Discovery was a race between two superpowers that divided the world. It involved extremely dangerous journeys, posing enormous human and technical challenges, that changed humanity forever.
This documentary was produced by LA CLAQUETA and directed by Manuel H. Martin. It was first released in 2021.

Clearly how greedy he was
Magellan was a liar. And he killed 2 Spanish Captains that found his lies. But he was killed when he and a few portugese crooks tried to fight a superior force in Philippines.. Arrogant Liar he was. Spanish Sebastian Del Cano decided to circumnavigate instead of going back the same way as Magelllan wanted from the beginning because "The pacific is not too big". BS Magellan.
This guy never travelled the "world". He only met his death in Asia. It was another guy that indeed circumnavigated the globe ok?
Where is the continuation?
first person to circumnavigate the world is Enrique Maluku from indonesia
The Portugeese lied for 500 years. Magellan was a crook and then murdered 2 captains that deffied his violations of international navigation laws. He was found quilty of treason in Spain.
Los portugueses detuvieron a Nao Victoria,en Cabo Verde, cuando de regreso los sobrevivientes pasaban cerca, tuvieron que salir huyendo dejando en tierra a unos cuantos hombres,,Cosa mala los portugueses,eran aliados de los británicos en contra de España
The Portugeese had a plot. And they lied for centuries. Magellan didnt want to circle the globe. He said he wanted to go west to the spice islands and come back east the same way. It was DelCano that found out it was better to circle than go back using the immense Pacific Ocean which Magelland said was not as big. Magellan was a liar. He sort of wanted the Spanish captains to get lost via not giving them the maps that are required on all fleet navigations. And his ship and another Portugeese he put as new captain he put on another ship come out as the best. The Dirty Portugeese Plot failed. Magellan and the other Portugeese Captain died in the pacific instead. The Spanish completed the circle. LOL.. The Portugeese Plot failed big time.
There are big Portugeese Lies. The mutiny by The Spanish Captains was because Magellan- CONTRARY TO ALL NAVIGATION LAWS didnt want to share the maps with the Spanish ships captains as agreed before as done on all fleet navigation. Magellan really wanted to make the spanish captains get lost and die due lack of maps and only the portugeese 2 captains finish the trip. So they mutiny in the Magellan ship while meeting him to ask for their maps.
They were killed by the portugeese in the Magellan ship. The other Spanish captain went back to Spain and Magellan was tried in absentia and found guilty of treason to the Spanish Crown. It was a Portugeese Plot.
Magellan was killed in Philiphines. The Spanish in charge now decided not to go back same way as planned initially and better circumnavigate and avoid the immense Pacific Ocean which Magellan BS it was not so big. Magellan was a Portugeese Plot. Im a commercial pilot instructor for decades.. And i teach all kinds of navigation.
Im a commercial pilot instructor. Any pilot, sailor or traveler on cars too knows all vehicles need to have the maps or charts of the route to follow not only one and the others "follow me". What about if the ship or vehicle in front loose the others in a storm or simply at night? The others, with no maps or idea where they were going will get lost. Magellan. It is one of the rules of fleet or multi vehicle navigation. Magellan didnt give any maps of the route to the others ships, only the portughese crew one in which he was too. That is a huge violation of navigation rules. Im a pilot instructor. He lied to the others about giving them the maps after a while, but didnt.
Huge Magellan Devilish Plan to make the others get lost and he and the Italians and portugeese navigate only and put down Spain sailors. He wanted the Spain crews to get lost, of course. That is why the others mutiny againts him. The liar also become a murderer. Good his arrogance made him try to defeat about 1,000 islanders with only about 50. Arrogant got killed and Delcano decided to circumnavigate instead of backtrack which was the initial plan.
Magellan was killed by the First Philippine Hero named Lapu-Lapu.
