B. In 1519, Ferdinand Magellan sailed from Seville with 5 ships. His plan was to sail west to reach India. Only one ship returned to Seville, but not with Magellan. He had died during the historic voyage. Having survived storms and mutinies, Magellan was killed by Islanders in the Philippines, but his fleet sailed on.
