The third Portuguese Viceroy of India died in 1524 during his third voyage to India. On his first voyage, Vasco da Gama discovered the sea route from Europe to India around the Cape of Good Hope. The country-capital pair is Argentina-Buenos Aires, with Argentina deriving its name from the Latin word for 'silver' and Buenos Aires translating to 'good airs'. Popcorn became closely associated with cinema theatres as movies with sound began to appear, since consuming popcorn in silent movie halls would disturb other audiences.
