Ferdinand Magellan was famous for circumnavigating the earth, though he was killed toward the end of his journey. When he landed on Cebu, he converted the Chief from their native religion to Christianity. When other islands heard of this, they began a war against this decision. It was in this war, that Magellan was killed in 1521. What remained of his crew returned to Spain on his behalf in 1522. He also discovered the Pacific Ocean which he named. Pacific means 'peace' or 'peaceful'. Ferdinand Magellan was also known for being able to put down a mutiny on his ship using strength and wit.
Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese explorer famous for being the first European to cross the Pacific Ocean. His expedition also helped prove that the globe could be circumnavigated by ship.
To be the first to sail around the world successfully, even though technically only part of his crew..not including him..were the one who returned. It was still his voyage that made it.
