Ford inane Magellan was a Portuguese explorer that led the first expedition that sailed around the earth. He was also the one that named the Pacific ocean. Interestingly his crew consisted of a variety of cultures, he was considered a traitor to his home country Portugal, many members of his crew deserted the expedition, he was a Christian evangelical which may have cost him his life, and Magellan only deserves partial credit for circumnavigating the globe because he died before it was over.
