Vasco da gama r n r
Vasco da Gama was a Portuguese explorer born around 1460 who led the first European expedition to reach India by sea in 1498. His expedition of 150 men was commissioned by King Manuel I of Portugal to find an ocean route to Asia, as the traditional land routes were blocked by the Ottoman Empire. Da Gama sailed around the Cape of Good Hope and along the east coast of Africa before landing in Calicut and Goa, India. Only 70 of the original 150 crew members survived the difficult voyage, which faced hardships like scurvy outbreaks and storms. Da Gama established trade relations between Portugal and India, finding the first all-water route that connected Europe and Asia by sea.
Francisco Pizarro MB
Francisco Pizarro was a Spanish explorer born in 1470 in Spain who loved adventure, especially in the New World. He joined several expeditions sponsored by Spain, exploring Central America and Panama. In 1532, Pizarro captured the Inca leader Atahualpa and held him for ransom, then founded the city of Lima, Peru. Pizarro discovered and conquered the Inca Empire, making Spain extremely wealthy and powerful, but his greed caused conflict and he was killed by a fellow explorer in 1541.
Da Gama 2
Vasco Da Gama was a 15th century Portuguese explorer born in 1469. In 1497, he was put in charge of four ships to explore a sea route to India. On May 20, 1498, Da Gama reached Calicut, India, becoming the first European to travel by sea from Europe to India. While the Moors of Calicut did not want Da Gama trading spices, he returned to Portugal in 1499 with a small cargo that made a 3000% profit. Da Gama made additional voyages and helped establish a sea route between Europe and India before dying in India in 1524.
