Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan's expedition leaders heralded as the first round of the universe. Expedition may be the greatest journey in the history of mankind. Total long the whole journey covers a little less than three years. Of the five ships of small size, the slow, fragile Magellan used, only one ship capable of returning to Europe safely, and of 265 sailors who participated, only 18 who come home alive! Magellan himself alone, including one who died on the way (even after he exceeded the time of the most difficult and dangerous). But in the end the expedition was successful, and bring proof that the world is really round.
It is very clear, the success of this expedition, in essence related to the leadership of Magellan with a steely determination. Many of his men who wanted to return after only a few months to take cruises, and surely not compelled Magellan could not suppress their rebellious intentions and determined to continue his intentions. The combination of expertise and stability determination make him considered the greatest sailors and explorers of all sailors, navigators that ever existed.
Real influence of what actually accomplish little. The Europeans who learned already as a mere indeed understand this earth round, not square and not flattened nor like a piece of board. And the route taken by Magellan nor become an important trade route. Nothing like a trip Vasco da Gama, Magellan's trip did not have a major impact both for Europe and the East. Therefore, despite his courage, fame, is not sufficient that the group signed a hundred.
