The age of Exploration originated in Europe in the fifteenth century. At that time,
European sailors started sailing to places far from their homes. First, they went down the coast
of Africa. Later, they went into the Indian Ocean and made it to various ports in Asia. Near the
end of the century, they sailed all the way to the Americas in the New World. Eventually, they
managed to travel around the entire world.
The first expedition that managed to circumnavigate the globe was led by Ferdinand
Magellan. While Magellan was a Portuguese sailor, he sailed under the Spanish flag since his

journey was funded by the king of Spain. When he departed on September 20, 1519, he had five
ships and nearly 300 men.
The expedition first moved west and crossed the Atlantic Ocean. After the ships reached
the New World, they sailed south along the east coast of South America. Magellan was looking
for a way to enter the Pacific Ocean. In November 1520, Magellan and his men finally
discovered a passage to the Pacific. During the search, though, Magellan lost one of his ships
when it crashed into a beach and got wrecked. There was also a mutiny attempt by some of his
crew members.
With his remaining ships, Magellan sailed west across the Pacific Ocean. They traveled
to the Mariana Islands, landed on Guam, and then sailed toward the Philippine Islands. During
their journey across the Pacific, Magellan and his men became the first Europeans to see most
of that part of the world. When the ships reached the Philippines, Magellan’s role in the journey
came to an end. On an island there, Magellan’s men got into a dispute with some of the natives.
There was a fight, and Magellan was killed in the middle of it. He died on April 27, 1521.
By this time, Magellan’s crew had three ships, but they had only enough men to sail on
two of them. So they burned one and sailed the other two south to Indonesia. There, they
engaged in trade with the natives, so they acquired some spices to take back to Europe.
However, the Portuguese were at war with Spain at that time, so one ship was captured by them.
The last remaining ships crossed the Indian Ocean. It rounded Africa and sailed north to Spain.
It arrived home on September 6, 1522. Only eighteen of the original crew made it home alive.

asleep. The name of this problem is insomnia. Some people say, “I didn’t sleep all night.” But

people had special ideas to make them sleep. Benjamin Franklin had four beds. He moved from
