the who the heck would inform the monarchs of spain bout this archipelago if it wasnt for the voyage of magellan and would send those colonizers, so he literally-figuratively founded the philippines..xD
and that's the beginning of a 333-year colonization of Spain to our country, the Philippines. it all started from a mistake because Magellan thought our country was the spice island.
Larita Lopez But his fleet did... His voyage did. Though he himself didn't live to see it be completed, I think what Ted-ed means is that his voyage was a success to actually circum-navigate the world
They failed to mention that the ship's log showed that they were exactly one day off from the local time and date when they returned to Spain, which drew attention from the Pope among others and which was the first solid proof of the Earth's axial rotation. Another interesting factoid is that Pigafetta's account lingered in relative obscurity and only achieved fame long after his death...
It's because if she does that, she will just be reminded all the struggles of the fallen navigators and that makes her feel hurt til this day. Not using the seasonings is her way of forgetting the horrendous and painful past.
Your mom's past life has a husband that died during the trade. Also her second husband died with the same reason. And the third and fourth... Those heartbreaks "sigh". Now your mother buys spices and burns them in your backyard.
Circumnavigation is possible in the flat earth theory. I actually don't know who is the most ignorant, the ones who truly believe in it or the ones who say its stupid without taking the time to learn about the theory (you). Saying that a Circumnavigation proves flat earthers wrong only shows that you dont know about the flat earth theory but dont hesitate to make fun of it just because it is the most popular opinion and will give you a false sense of intelligence superiority. If you have any interest in knowing how Circumnavigation is possible in a flat earth, picture a circle where the North points to it's center, choose a random point and travel West, you will do a circle and reach the starting position.
No lapu lapu didn't allow to take the body of magellan to his crews because its is the price or we call it a remembrance of his victory to the overwhellming odds

An interesting sidelight: Pigafetta was puzzled because his journal, which he so carefully and meticulously kept, was 1 day behind when he got back to Spain. Till the day he died, he searched and rechecked his journal, but he couldn't discover the error. The truth was that he should've added 1 day when he crossed the International date line in the Pacific.
During that time the international date line has not yet been drawn in their chart, more or less 200 years later that the line was recognized after the invention of the chronometer watch. Still they are genius men of steel on a wooden ship..

As a Malaysian I'm glad that you focused a lot of attention on Enrique. According to the Malaccan museum, he returned to the Philippines and thus did circumnavigate the world.
in the Philippines, i was taught that a hero named Lapu-Lapu (mentioned in this video) killed Magellan because he was invading the Philippines not because he was trying to overthrow the rebels. the teachers made it obvious that he was the enemy.
Seems like wherever you are history will be changed to your favor. Of course the west will play up Magellan as a hero who just helped out against a rebellion and died for his trouble, while we Filipinos will see him as an invader who died foolishly underestimating our ancestors. There probably is truth to both sides of the story.
The victors write history. For us, we were the victor as we fended off Spain at it's glory years. For them, it was a victory for a route to the spice islands was found.
Fun Fact: Contrary to popular belief here in the Philippines, Lapu-Lapu DID NOT kill Magellan. It was his men who succeeded to kill Magellan at the shores of Mactan. At that time, Lapu-Lapu was a community leader of old age; thus he did not take part physically in the Battle of Mactan. Edit (18-Mar-21): The comment section is a complete mess, as expected in UA-cam. Very funny. Anyways, we must take the accounts of this event with a little bit of skepticism because of the scarcity of records documenting it. As far as I know, we only have the book of Antonio Pigafetta to rely on to plus local accounts. Quarrel all you like but one thing is certain: Magellan died in the Philippines.
Magellan was born in Sabrosa - on banks of Douro river- Portugal. I think the Sailors of Spain killed Magellan because they never accepted a Portuguese captain commanding them. i think the history must be rewrite . Maybe the true history is in Vatican . I am searching the true history. I have the book written by Pegafeta but I don't believe in it.
Raul Manuel Oliveira eu também não acredito nessa história contada pelos castelhanos, foram eles que o mataram e culpam os filipinos. Realmente a história tem que ser reescrita. Não o mataram no primeiro motim, mataram no ao segundo, e também já tinham o que queriam que era chegar às ilhas das especiarias, limparam lhe o sebo.
I just want to take this moment to thank you, TED-ED for doing this. This is such good learning material for the present generation in learning History of the Philippines. I am a social science teacher and I'm teaching history and everything was just spot on. This will boost the interest of my learners and help them not to be confined to reading alone their history because this video presentation will guide them to understand the process as well as clear representation. For learning History, you really have to imagine the things you are reading and studying. So, this will lessen their difficulty. Again, thanks a bunch. :D :D
Mario Mones ..... magellan was already in the moluccas isles (*using the eastern route) prior to the westward route, so him reaching the filipins (*same longitude as the moluccas isles) using westward route gave him credit to first circumnavigate the globe
The true name is Fernando de Magalhães. In Spain is known as Magallanes and in English Ferdinand Magellan. His name was translated because the circumnavigation of the world was an important advance in knowledgement in Europe.
Ferdinand Magellan is the English version. Fernando de Magallanes is the Spanish version. Fernão de Magalhães is the Portuguese version. Magellan was born in northern Portugal region in the district of Vila Real.
You cannot say "How Magellan circumnavigated the world"? First of all, Ferdinand Magellan died in Mactan, Cebu, Philippines during the with the local chieftain Lapulapu. He never circumnavigated the world alive because of his death. So your thumbnail should not be titled he circumnavigated the world. The only person you can call to be the first man to circumnavigate the world alive is Juan Sebastian de Elcano being the captain of the last surviving ship back to Spain and that include th 19 crew who survived circumnavigated the world.
Technically, since Enrique originated in Southeast Asia and Magellan had brought him back to Spain only for him to travel back again to Southeast Asia, shouldn't he be the first to circumnavigate the globe? In Malaysian/Indonesian history, he is known as Panglima Awang, he's a native to Sumatra and lived in the Malacca Sultanate, it's a huge possibility that he's a Malay (since Malays are concentrated in the island of Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia).
well he's short of few hundred miles, thats why the video mentioned IF he made it back to his country, it needed a record , an evidence if you will. the Victoria's crew made it back its recorded with evidence.
@@Farisss92 Yes, he was born in Sumatra, but Enrique might have settled somewhere in the Philippines after Magellan voyage. He also serves under the flag of Spain, following his master Magellan who claimed the Philippines for the Kingdom of Spain. Don't forget that he was also a Christian Catholic.
Finally, Indonesia is relevant in the world history :D. PS : It's just confusing how white people nowadays claim that they don't like spicy food while they came for trade and colonization in the first place looking for spice.
Next colonization goal: Mars or other planets in another galaxy. Who knows we are going to meet locals there that eventually kill 'our guy'?! I wonder if we are able to find a tremendous amount of gold, diamond, and silver sources there, and then after a while we 'earth citizens' claim that we don't like gold anymore just like how white people claim that they don't like spice anymore once it became way too abundant.
You know that spices aren't things that make your food spicy but parts of plants that aren't leaves that you add to your food? For example licorice, which is sweet.
011azr what are you talking bout? spice still a lucrative trade up to this day... company still getting richer from spice, without them mcdonald would taste horrible...
welniok Well, according to the dictionary, spicy means "flavored with or fragrant with spice". Say whatever you want, I know what spice is and I live in a country where various spices are originated from. People here love spice so much that white people who come here often complain that they can't stand the spiciness of the food being made here. The same thing applies to other Asian countries too such as Thailand.
The comment 'Magellan was the first man to sail around the world,' never fails to amaze me. Magellan was killed in the Phillipines (Cebu) fighting the natives. His 18 original crew are NEVER mentioned. This is called historical accuracy?!
You know, it is annoying we do not learn in school this stuff. I know there is no time and we basically grab couple of bits of every decade but it would be nice to have some short of native culture information before the Spanish arrival. Anyhow, love from Spain!
His """legacy""" in the Philippines was more than 300 years of Spanish colonisation, and this legacy still manifests in our poor institutions. But at least the video never mentioned Magellan to be the one to discover the Philippines (which I do appreciate)!
@@akositatot underdevelopped nations allways put the blame on colonialism, when it's quite probable that without it you would have not developped anything at all.
@@jcg4350 No, it's precisely because of colonialism that we didn't develop. And it's because of them stealing our land and resources that they developed. The now "first world" countries wouldn't have ever been developed without us. Learn your history please
@@jcg4350 hey there! Where are your sources? A quick Google search led me to this quote by Walter Rodney (2020): “When one society finds itself forced to relinquish power to another society, THAT in itself is a form of underdevelopment.” Honestly, I tried to make sense of your argument, but I can’t. Maybe it’s your privilege talking. I’m embarrassed for you... and your spelling.
He didn't though, Magellan actually had no intention of circumnavigating the world, just to go to the Spice islands and back to Spain. It was Juan Sebastián Elcano who took the decision to circumnavigate the world and really led the expedition that did it
GREAT POINT. Spain was not going to sink miilions of dollars in todays money to just circumnavigate, but to go there and backtrack bringing spices instead. So many bullshiters in the internet. They still say all over that Magellan the great navigator "Was the first to Circumnavigated the glove" which is a big LIE.
@@emergencylowmaneuvering7350 We don't know that at all, we don't know if Magalhães would've made the decision to go back to Spain backwards or to cross Africa, he never survived to make the plans. Both Magalhães and Elcano are incredible navigators, but we have to consider that after overestimating the size of the pacific, Magalhães would've probably not make the decision to backtrack. No one would. It would be actual suicide.
@@Noctuam734 "We dont know" you posted. Well, YOU DONT KNOW, NOT ALL OF US WE. I read about the trip. He, as a Portugese didnt want to to enter the indian ocean to go back to spain that way due Portugese navy there would capture him, trial him as a spy and traitor now sailing for spain, the rival AND HANG HIM. IT WAS DELCANO WHO DECIDED not to go back the pacific ocean way and take the risk of circumnavigating instead. MAGELLAN WAS A LIAR AND A MURDERER OF GOOD CAPTAINS that demanded right navigation rules. The portugese lie about it, and fooled all about "The Great Magelan".
I have complicated feelings about this video. in one hand, I'm grateful that they confirmed spherical shape of this earth. however, their expedition somehow had opened the scary destiny for our country. years after years of war and became vassals. I hope it won't happen again in the future; where a country desires another country's wealth and killing thousands because of that.
maybe the dialect varies between some countries but as far i know it was pronounce raja.... this word came from india so it gonna need a long time and need to pass a lot of country before it reach philipines...... so some regional dialect maybe mispoken it....... (this is just only explaination that i can give)
Just a side note. My history professor told us that there is a possibility that Pigafetta overestimated the no. of people lead by Lapu-Lapu who fought against the group of Magellan, this is because of the noted (based on other accounts) population of the island of Mactan at that time and the notion that maybe it was purposefully done to at least make it more noble for the side of Magellan in a sense that Lapu-Lapu's team won because of their supposed number and that Magellan refused the help of Raja Humabon. Though Pigafetta noted the battle formations made by the locals as they prepare to engage the team of Magellan. Still worth taking note of, who knows? History.
Well, the idea was presented to us by our history prof, and the readings were more of collated by herself thus I can't give you the exact links or references of those as I don't have them anymore. But if you want to learn more and read some first-second hand accounts on the pre-hispanic history of the nation, I can refer you to the Blair and Robertson's The Philippine Islands ( which you can try in the Gutenberg project site). This is noting that not every single thing that we will read will be and should be considered the utter and only truth, pointing that we still need to be critical. I also want to share that my prof also suggested that many of the accounts written were distorted in a manner wherein it will justify the further colonization of the archipelago (no such thing as alternative truths tho). We can have a meaningful discussion on such if you want.
@@007thematrix007 whether they were outnumbered of not. they made silly mistakes like wading in water with an armor on. By the time they reached the surf line they were exhausted. Lapu Lapu's men only had on a bahag (a type of loincloth) so they could move freely.
@@meyricktablizo8471 I think I read an account where they generalized and described the people as "lazy" and other characteristics such as that. So yeah, we should be critical when reading those
In about six minutes we hear about a three year journey that must have been the single greatest success of it's time. Navigation, exploration, the hopes and open eyes of its crew members were so unimaginably wide, so grand, that we can hardly conceive it.
And meanwhile, in the 21st century with all our space exploration, technology and knowledge...some people still believe the earth is flat. Jeez Louise....
Elcano took two bunged up ships and sailed through unfamiliar waters to the spice islands, then sailed on a long, long voyage back to Spain. And yet, we are taught Magellan, Magellan, Magellan. It is like giving George McClellan full credit for the Civil War and ignoring Grant.
The expedition was originally headed by Magellan so maybe the whole voyage will be honored to his name as the kapitan heneral and chief navigator he laid already the course back to Spain that del Cano followed after his death in mactan..
that and the first few comment I saw was either "I'm gay" or "I'm not gay" I mean who gives a shit if your gay or not, it's 2017, it's perfectly ok to be either...
the only thing i heard from my philippine history teacher is that someone name magellan invaded the philippines and lapu lapu defeated him (it was 1st grade)
I'm Filipino from Philippines, and I just had my 23andme today and I learned I'm 5% Iberian (Spanish or Portugal). So Thank you Spain for sending my ancestor to Philippines, without you...me and my entire clan wouldn't be alive today.
I have two Spanish great great grandpas from both sides of my parents. My Spanish maternal great great grandpa from my maternal grandpa's side was a mayor of my mom's hometown in Ilocos Sur, while the other great great grandpa from my paternal grandmother's side was a landowner in Guimaras
This is 1522, meanwhile in 1417 before Magellans voyage the ancient king of Sulu Philippines, known by the name King Paduka Batara of Sulu Philippines (Paduka Pahala in other sources) set sail for China for a tribute mission. Accompanying him in his journey were two other Muslim leaders as well as 340 members of their delegation, including Batara’s two wives and three sons. As was the tradition during those days, the Sulu king also brought with him gifts-among them pearls, tortoiseshell, precious stones, and a “memorial inscribed on gold.” The purpose of the trip, after all, was to establish a friendship with the Ming Dynasty’s Emperor Yongle. The Chinese annals identified Batara as the “eastern king” and the most superior among the three. The two other rulers, Maharaja Kolamating and Paduka Prabhu, were described as “western king” and “cave king,” respectively. It is believed that Paduka Prabhu was Paduka Batara’s brother-in-law who most likely came from Borneo. After arriving in Chinese shores in August of 1417, the group made its way to Hangzhou where they embarked on a fleet of barges that would take them to Beijing. The Emperor was delighted with the gifts he received from the Sulu delegates, and he reciprocated it with probably the finest hospitality the group had ever experienced-silk clothing, private accommodation, and entertainment worthy of royalty
Lapu Lapu isn't a traitor to the Spanish, because he never pledge allegiance to them, he was simply the chief of a tribe in a Philippines island. What are you talking about?
As an Indonesian, we're taught about it nemerous time on the history lesson, about Magellan's journey n how they arrived in Maluku (Mollucca), and started to do the monopoly trade. And unfortunately, that's how the colonialization began😕
little do they know, Cebu already have a lot of spices, also the best lechon (o, wag masyadong seryosohin. alam ko na wala pang famous cebu lechon that time)
Those slaves were not mention in my elementary history books arrrrghhh and as far as i remember my teacher told me that Lapu-lapu is the one to blame for Magellan’s death. UA-cam is way more better than most private schools here in the philippines.
As far as my knowledge goes, you didn't miss anything. Awesome summary of the expedition! It's sad how spanish explorations are so easily forgotten. If you think about it, it definitely takes some guts (maybe some foolishness) to just take a boat and venture into the unknown...respect!
Kyoshi Kozan He missed the day difference between what the Spanish people at home and what the travellers counted. First proof that the Earth is turning around itself. :) But awesome summary, nonetheless
Wrong title, Magellan did not circumnavigated the world, the first man to circumnavigate the world was the spanish captain Juan Sebastian Elcano 1519－1521, and the second one also spanish Andres de Urdaneta in 1525－1636 who also discovered the return journey in the Pacific, posible best sailor in the Pacific.
Magallanes comenzó la vuelta al mundo,bajo la bandera de España, a Portugal no le interesaba, pues hacia la ruta por África, por eso intentó de hacer fracasar la expedición, el valiente Magallanes, murió en un enfrentamiento en Filipinas con los indígenas, siendo conseguida la primera circunnavegación del del globo, por el marino español, Juan Sebastian el Cano, Magallanes,sólo hizo la mitad de la ruta, nunca la completó
I knew most of these! Hooray! On a side note Magellan landed in Limasawa at noon THEN went to Cebu (its in a song guys cmon) they also forgot to mention that they were converting natives to Catholicism. Also people in the comments seem confused with the treatment of Lapu-Lapu, again if you mentioned that they were converting people in the first place you wouldn't have this confusion. From the perspective of Humabon and the Spaniards he was a rebel for refusing to convert to Catholicism . He refused to obey the authority of Rajah Humabon. But make no mistake that Lapu-Lapu was not a hero. Lapu-lapu IS a hero, he is a hero because he is the first person to resist foreign rule in the hundreds of years we've been colonized lapu-lapu is a reminder to us that if we won a fight against our colonizers before then we can certainly do it again. Magellan, Lapu-lapu, both of these historical figures are important in history for different reasons, and in telling a story there always has to be a bad guy, but do not forget that in real life it's not black and white. There are different sides to every story just because you're hearing one side of doesn't mean that your version is wrong. Magellan gave us proof that the world was indeed round. Lapu-lapu gave us a symbol of fighting for our right to freedom. Not one is necessarily bad and it's important to know and acknowledge all the sides of the story for a clearer picture and less misunderstanding.
Enrique was a Cebuano. He was captured in the Philippines as a young boy and sold as a slave in Malacca where Magellan bought him in an auction. Pigafetta's journal entry said that Enrique stayed behind amongst the people who spoke the language of his childhood which is Cebuano.
at 5:07 the animation does show that the dictionary compiled by pigafetta and enrique have spanish and cebuano entries and i can even make some words: si = Oo, sol = adlao. btw i am a cebuano.
He did not circumnavigate the world. He died in the Philippines after invading one of the islands. It was Sebastian Del Cano who made the whole circumnavigation. This is an integral part of our History lessons here in the Philippines.
La primera persona en dar la vuelta al mundo no fue Fernando de Magallanes, sino el marino español Juan Sebastián Elcano. :) es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Sebasti%C3%A1n_Elcano
Every time I go back to Cebu, I always remember Magellan how he never set foot on dry ground and when I do land at Mactan international airport, I know I'm going have a great, fun and safe Vacation in the Philippines.. :)
His name in portuguese is FERNÃO DE MAGALHÃES, it is dificult to pronounce for non portuguese speakers, but Magellan sound like other person...I guess it can be corrected. Thank you ;-)
We don't care. He's a COLONIZER and ENSLAVER to us. Celebrating Magellan is like celebrating Columbus brutally killing natives. It doesn't work out in this day and age.
Man, no matter how adventurous I am, I could never just basically trust a stranger and sail into the unknown; unknown seas, lands and time! Also, this is major world history and I’m surprised there hasn’t been a huge miniseries about this. I think it totally deserves one.
Fun Fact: If you go to Cebu in the Philippines, you will find a stone slab with a plaque on it, a monument to Ferdinand Magellan and his voyage. On the opposite side of the slab you will find another plaque, a monument to Lapu-Lapu, the Filipino warrior who slew Magellan. One story, two sides.
Cebuano here. Actually, if you go to Cebu you will find a slab for Magellan but only to mark the spot where he docked but we have a statue to honor Lapu Lapu. Raja Humabon used Magellan as a pawn in his war with Lapu Lapu. Magellan's eagerness to impress the Raja was his downfall.
And what the celebration from the West comes problems to the East. Hurray! Honestly, thanks for uniting "Las Islas Filipinas" from a broken cluster of kingdoms and introducing new plants here, but by removing parts of our culture and establishing a colonial base with a special prize of slaving the natives, "Filipinos" aren't proud that you have set foot on our land. Whatever, 377 years of invasion is just a short time! What could possibly go wrong in that period?
TheInfernalGrinder yeah, taking sides in a native rivalry, murdering people and invading their lands. not to be butthurt or anything.. just saying... Hahahahahaha!
This was part of our lesson in Araling Panlipunan (Philippine History). Part of our examinations are the important dates, names of the people involved in this expedition, as well as the names of the 5 ships given to Magellan for this expedition.
@@legendarytat8278 The root of proof literally comes from the mathematic proof which can't actually be epistemically proven but can only be proven with numbers
Magalhaes no dió la vuelta al mundo ya que murió en Filipinas, la expedición de Magalhaes la llevo a cabo Juan Sebastián Elcano el segundo de a bordo de Magalhaes.
By the way, the time that Magellan arrived in what is now present-day Philippines, was back then not called the Philippines. It was only until after that the Spanish then named the archipelago for King Philip.
It took 89 days For Columb to reach Caribbean. Those crazy bunch just 2 years later sailed the 3 years long journey around the world in a completely unknown world. Imagine that
As a speaker of both the Spanish and Cebuano languages, I love how you can see the Spanish translation of the Cebuano words from what Antonio Pigafetta heard back then on this video. It's so cool. Adlaw as "adlo" meaning "Sol/día" or day/sun and "oo" for "sí". It's cool!
THEE best book I ever read(twice) excellent info, killed the mutineeers but being religous. could not kill the traitor priest so he left him on an island off brazil.....
Wow, the Cebuano language (or more locally known as Sugbu-anon) was the first ever recorded Philippine language by a European Chronicler... I hope the Philippine Gov't will preserved this beautiful language and not only the tagalog one.

All our history books from Grade 1 to Highschool tell that Magellan is an invader. And never did any mention that he was just caught with some local chieftain battles. Poor guy.
Magellan was viewed as a voyager from the West, viewed as an invader in the East.

and that's the beginning of a 333-year colonization of Spain to our country, the Philippines. it all started from a mistake because Magellan thought our country was the spice island.

So Magellan did not really circumnavigate the globe.
Johnny SushiBurgerNoodles yeah the first person to do so was Juan Sebastian El Cano so the title doesn't make any sense
Johnny SushiBurgerNoodles wait why?
Shreya Singh he died before he could circumnavigate the earth
Technically, I believe no. But he found a way "around" the globe, reaching the east via west (which must have been really amazing at that time).
Larita Lopez But his fleet did... His voyage did. Though he himself didn't live to see it be completed, I think what Ted-ed means is that his voyage was a success to actually circum-navigate the world
They failed to mention that the ship's log showed that they were exactly one day off from the local time and date when they returned to Spain, which drew attention from the Pope among others and which was the first solid proof of the Earth's axial rotation. Another interesting factoid is that Pigafetta's account lingered in relative obscurity and only achieved fame long after his death...

They went thru all that trouble to get spices, and my mom still doesn't even season chicken
Spices were priced items in Europe those days.... And they were also looking for the biblical Ophir.... the islands of gold in the far east.
your mom doesn't _WHAT_
*I bet the chicken just tastes like water sprinkled on top of the chicken itself*
It's because if she does that, she will just be reminded all the struggles of the fallen navigators and that makes her feel hurt til this day. Not using the seasonings is her way of forgetting the horrendous and painful past.
Your mom's past life has a husband that died during the trade. Also her second husband died with the same reason. And the third and fourth... Those heartbreaks "sigh".
Now your mother buys spices and burns them in your backyard.

Circumnavigation is possible in the flat earth theory. I actually don't know who is the most ignorant, the ones who truly believe in it or the ones who say its stupid without taking the time to learn about the theory (you). Saying that a Circumnavigation proves flat earthers wrong only shows that you dont know about the flat earth theory but dont hesitate to make fun of it just because it is the most popular opinion and will give you a false sense of intelligence superiority.
If you have any interest in knowing how Circumnavigation is possible in a flat earth, picture a circle where the North points to it's center, choose a random point and travel West, you will do a circle and reach the starting position.
They didn't mention the best part: They packed Magellan's body into a barrel and brought it home with them.

During that time the international date line has not yet been drawn in their chart, more or less 200 years later that the line was recognized after the invention of the chronometer watch. Still they are genius men of steel on a wooden ship..

As a Malaysian I'm glad that you focused a lot of attention on Enrique. According to the Malaccan museum, he returned to the Philippines and thus did circumnavigate the world.
Hi fellow malaysian
Seconded.
Yea I doubt that
Malaccans here!
Malaysians where are you?
Please don't be rude to the narrator. Do you think you can pronounce other languages with ease? I'm a Filipino too but please, don't be so rude.

"We are all villains in someone else's story"
Thank you TED-ED for the recognition of our country as a part of history. The Philippines.
Thank you to! I pointed out that he himself was both hero and villain.
Did Magellan live long enough to see himself become a villain.
Is that quote in the video or is that just a quote in general?
that quote would imply Magellan's story, not the Philippines.
remember, the narrative nowadays is "Europeans bad, non Europeans good"
Cringe
am i the only one watching from Philippines?
Renzo Legaspi Nope! I'm watching too
me too bruh
akala ko ako lang pinoy dito
Renzo Legaspi me too watching from Shanghai
Alam nyo ba yung kanta??
in the Philippines, i was taught that a hero named Lapu-Lapu (mentioned in this video) killed Magellan because he was invading the Philippines not because he was trying to overthrow the rebels. the teachers made it obvious that he was the enemy.
Kind of stupid to try to invade a country with a few hungry sailors in the other side of their own country.
Seems like wherever you are history will be changed to your favor. Of course the west will play up Magellan as a hero who just helped out against a rebellion and died for his trouble, while we Filipinos will see him as an invader who died foolishly underestimating our ancestors. There probably is truth to both sides of the story.
The victors write history. For us, we were the victor as we fended off Spain at it's glory years. For them, it was a victory for a route to the spice islands was found.
Kyle Silva It was not sure that Lapu-Lapu killed Magellan.
Lapu lapu didn't kill Magellan
I probably need some sleep cuz' I just read the title as "How Magellan circumcised the globe"😅
How the earth lost its' foreskin is in another video.
Fun Fact: Contrary to popular belief here in the Philippines, Lapu-Lapu DID NOT kill Magellan. It was his men who succeeded to kill Magellan at the shores of Mactan. At that time, Lapu-Lapu was a community leader of old age; thus he did not take part physically in the Battle of Mactan.
Edit (18-Mar-21): The comment section is a complete mess, as expected in UA-cam. Very funny. Anyways, we must take the accounts of this event with a little bit of skepticism because of the scarcity of records documenting it. As far as I know, we only have the book of Antonio Pigafetta to rely on to plus local accounts. Quarrel all you like but one thing is certain: Magellan died in the Philippines.
Jaehaerys III Well, he might have, or at least watched from the distance. He did die from an arrow.
Without the Spaniards there will not be a country called Las Islas Filipinas!
Magellan was born in Sabrosa - on banks of Douro river- Portugal. I think the Sailors of Spain killed Magellan because they never accepted a Portuguese captain commanding them. i think the history must be rewrite . Maybe the true history is in Vatican . I am searching the true history. I have the book written by Pegafeta but I don't believe in it.
Raul Manuel Oliveira eu também não acredito nessa história contada pelos castelhanos, foram eles que o mataram e culpam os filipinos. Realmente a história tem que ser reescrita. Não o mataram no primeiro motim, mataram no ao segundo, e também já tinham o que queriam que era chegar às ilhas das especiarias, limparam lhe o sebo.
Jaehaeron yep knew that but why not one of his men would be our bayani

I just want to take this moment to thank you, TED-ED for doing this. This is such good learning material for the present generation in learning History of the Philippines. I am a social science teacher and I'm teaching history and everything was just spot on. This will boost the interest of my learners and help them not to be confined to reading alone their history because this video presentation will guide them to understand the process as well as clear representation. For learning History, you really have to imagine the things you are reading and studying. So, this will lessen their difficulty. Again, thanks a bunch. :D :D
Magellan was not killed by bamboo spears he was killed by a poisoned arrow
dodododoge doge nope he was cutted in the neck by lapu lapu
Andrew Vidal Mali ka!!!!
He just hit bamboo spears by Lapu-lapu's Army
Basta mali kayo
No he tripped over and died.
Sebastián Elcano did it, Magallanes was killed in the Philippines
Mario Mones but Magalhães have alredy been on malasia so he complete the circo navigation first
Mario Mones ..... magellan was already in the moluccas isles (*using the eastern route) prior to the westward route, so him reaching the filipins (*same longitude as the moluccas isles) using westward route gave him credit to first circumnavigate the globe

Oh my god! I'm a brazilian and I studied about Fernão de Magalhães for years and NEVER made the conexion that HE is "Magellan" >D
Wtf does you being Brazilian have to do with any of this? XD
Phillip II Von Habsburg Isn't that obvious? They speak Portuguese and therefore don't use the hispanicized version of Magellan's name.
The true name is Fernando de Magalhães. In Spain is known as Magallanes and in English Ferdinand Magellan. His name was translated because the circumnavigation of the world was an important advance in knowledgement in Europe.
Ferdinand Magellan is the English version. Fernando de Magallanes is the Spanish version. Fernão de Magalhães is the Portuguese version. Magellan was born in northern Portugal region in the district of Vila Real.
Phillip II Von Habsburg basic geography and history man lmfao
You cannot say "How Magellan circumnavigated the world"? First of all, Ferdinand Magellan died in Mactan, Cebu, Philippines during the with the local chieftain Lapulapu. He never circumnavigated the world alive because of his death. So your thumbnail should not be titled he circumnavigated the world. The only person you can call to be the first man to circumnavigate the world alive is Juan Sebastian de Elcano being the captain of the last surviving ship back to Spain and that include th 19 crew who survived circumnavigated the world.
Spaniards: *All Filipinos must convert into Christianity or else be executed"
Lapu Lapu: "hold my sinigang"
More like: Hold my poisonous spear
@Kent Guiller No its more like Hold my Tuba(bisaya coconut wine)
Lapu-Lapu never actually partaked in a battle despite to contrary belief, his men was the one that killed Magellan.
Technically, since Enrique originated in Southeast Asia and Magellan had brought him back to Spain only for him to travel back again to Southeast Asia, shouldn't he be the first to circumnavigate the globe? In Malaysian/Indonesian history, he is known as Panglima Awang, he's a native to Sumatra and lived in the Malacca Sultanate, it's a huge possibility that he's a Malay (since Malays are concentrated in the island of Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia).
Farisss92 no because their is no record of him returning to malacca, the video literally states this
well he's short of few hundred miles, thats why the video mentioned IF he made it back to his country, it needed a record , an evidence if you will. the Victoria's crew made it back its recorded with evidence.
Enrique was Filipino because he was serving under the flag and king of Spain.
@@chessonso2610 Enrique was born in Sumatra and lived in Malacca, what part of that is Filipino?
@@Farisss92 Yes, he was born in Sumatra, but Enrique might have settled somewhere in the Philippines after Magellan voyage. He also serves under the flag of Spain, following his master Magellan who claimed the Philippines for the Kingdom of Spain. Don't forget that he was also a Christian Catholic.
Finally, Indonesia is relevant in the world history :D.
PS : It's just confusing how white people nowadays claim that they don't like spicy food while they came for trade and colonization in the first place looking for spice.
Next colonization goal: Mars or other planets in another galaxy. Who knows we are going to meet locals there that eventually kill 'our guy'?! I wonder if we are able to find a tremendous amount of gold, diamond, and silver sources there, and then after a while we 'earth citizens' claim that we don't like gold anymore just like how white people claim that they don't like spice anymore once it became way too abundant.
011azr How is anything you just said make any sense? Just because my dad likes ham doesn't mean I do, So why would my ancestors tastes dictate mine?
You know that spices aren't things that make your food spicy but parts of plants that aren't leaves that you add to your food? For example licorice, which is sweet.
011azr what are you talking bout? spice still a lucrative trade up to this day... company still getting richer from spice, without them mcdonald would taste horrible...
welniok Well, according to the dictionary, spicy means "flavored with or fragrant with spice". Say whatever you want, I know what spice is and I live in a country where various spices are originated from. People here love spice so much that white people who come here often complain that they can't stand the spiciness of the food being made here. The same thing applies to other Asian countries too such as Thailand.
The comment 'Magellan was the first man to sail around the world,' never fails to amaze me.
Magellan was killed in the Phillipines (Cebu) fighting the natives.
His 18 original crew are NEVER mentioned.
This is called historical accuracy?!
The crew were Spanish. Nobody cares about the Spanish. Magellan is the "hero" because he is the one who planned everything and...he is Portuguese.
Magellan was not the first to do it, he died on some beach in the Philippines. His captain Juan Sabastion Elcano who finished it.
He was the captain and the travel had been planned by him
Magellan did the hardwork. To sail west on uncharted waters...
Elcano only had to sail back on waters already known to Europeans...
@@luispedro1668 And? If you don't finish the whole thing, you can't take credit for it.
@@guillermosanchez9989 if wasn't him the travel would never be done in the first place
As Filipino, I'd say there's a reason why Magellan is always the Antagonist in most historical movies in the Philippines 😁
You know, it is annoying we do not learn in school this stuff. I know there is no time and we basically grab couple of bits of every decade but it would be nice to have some short of native culture information before the Spanish arrival. Anyhow, love from Spain!
His """legacy""" in the Philippines was more than 300 years of Spanish colonisation, and this legacy still manifests in our poor institutions. But at least the video never mentioned Magellan to be the one to discover the Philippines (which I do appreciate)!

Maybe it’s your privilege talking. I’m embarrassed for you... and your spelling.
He didn't though, Magellan actually had no intention of circumnavigating the world, just to go to the Spice islands and back to Spain. It was Juan Sebastián Elcano who took the decision to circumnavigate the world and really led the expedition that did it
GREAT POINT. Spain was not going to sink miilions of dollars in todays money to just circumnavigate, but to go there and backtrack bringing spices instead. So many bullshiters in the internet. They still say all over that Magellan the great navigator "Was the first to Circumnavigated the glove" which is a big LIE.
@@emergencylowmaneuvering7350 We don't know that at all, we don't know if Magalhães would've made the decision to go back to Spain backwards or to cross Africa, he never survived to make the plans. Both Magalhães and Elcano are incredible navigators, but we have to consider that after overestimating the size of the pacific, Magalhães would've probably not make the decision to backtrack. No one would. It would be actual suicide.
@@Noctuam734 "We dont know" you posted. Well, YOU DONT KNOW, NOT ALL OF US WE. I read about the trip. He, as a Portugese didnt want to to enter the indian ocean to go back to spain that way due Portugese navy there would capture him, trial him as a spy and traitor now sailing for spain, the rival AND HANG HIM.
IT WAS DELCANO WHO DECIDED not to go back the pacific ocean way and take the risk of circumnavigating instead.
MAGELLAN WAS A LIAR AND A MURDERER OF GOOD CAPTAINS that demanded right navigation rules.
The portugese lie about it, and fooled all about "The Great Magelan".
As Magallan dies in Filipines it was his sucessor Juan Sebastian Elcano the one who circumnavigated the globe.

I have complicated feelings about this video. in one hand, I'm grateful that they confirmed spherical shape of this earth. however, their expedition somehow had opened the scary destiny for our country. years after years of war and became vassals. I hope it won't happen again in the future; where a country desires another country's wealth and killing thousands because of that.

yeah lol fair enough
Raja means king in my language. It's pronounced just like how it's written.
011azr where you from? Here in the Philippines raja also means king but is pronounced as raha.
maybe the dialect varies between some countries but as far i know it was pronounce raja.... this word came from india so it gonna need a long time and need to pass a lot of country before it reach philipines...... so some regional dialect maybe mispoken it....... (this is just only explaination that i can give)
Magallanes falleció en filipinas, lo cual no fué el quien completó la primera vuelta al mundo, fue juan sebastian elcano
Chile (the country where the magellan strait is) has 3 cities named after the Ships: Santiago (The capital) San Antonio (The main port) and Concepción
Just a side note. My history professor told us that there is a possibility that Pigafetta overestimated the no. of people lead by Lapu-Lapu who fought against the group of Magellan, this is because of the noted (based on other accounts) population of the island of Mactan at that time and the notion that maybe it was purposefully done to at least make it more noble for the side of Magellan in a sense that Lapu-Lapu's team won because of their supposed number and that Magellan refused the help of Raja Humabon. Though Pigafetta noted the battle formations made by the locals as they prepare to engage the team of Magellan. Still worth taking note of, who knows? History.
Cool, I'd like to read some more about PIgafetta's accounts of the actual battle. Can you give me a link?
Well, the idea was presented to us by our history prof, and the readings were more of collated by herself thus I can't give you the exact links or references of those as I don't have them anymore. But if you want to learn more and read some first-second hand accounts on the pre-hispanic history of the nation, I can refer you to the Blair and Robertson's The Philippine Islands ( which you can try in the Gutenberg project site). This is noting that not every single thing that we will read will be and should be considered the utter and only truth, pointing that we still need to be critical. I also want to share that my prof also suggested that many of the accounts written were distorted in a manner wherein it will justify the further colonization of the archipelago (no such thing as alternative truths tho). We can have a meaningful discussion on such if you want.
Meyrick Tablizo ..... doesn't matter, all that matters is that they were in unfamiliar territory, and "outnumbered"
@@007thematrix007 whether they were outnumbered of not. they made silly mistakes like wading in water with an armor on. By the time they reached the surf line they were exhausted. Lapu Lapu's men only had on a bahag (a type of loincloth) so they could move freely.
@@meyricktablizo8471 I think I read an account where they generalized and described the people as "lazy" and other characteristics such as that. So yeah, we should be critical when reading those
In about six minutes we hear about a three year journey that must have been the single greatest success of it's time. Navigation, exploration, the hopes and open eyes of its crew members were so unimaginably wide, so grand, that we can hardly conceive it.

Elcano took two bunged up ships and sailed through unfamiliar waters
to the spice islands, then sailed on a long, long voyage back to Spain.
And yet, we are taught Magellan, Magellan, Magellan.
It is like giving George McClellan full credit for the Civil War and ignoring Grant.
The expedition was originally headed by Magellan so maybe the whole voyage will be honored to his name as the kapitan heneral and chief navigator he laid already the course back to Spain that del Cano followed after his death in mactan..
if not because of Magellan the voyage will never happen. If not his strong will the first mutiny could have succeeded
@@yobcabalotrab3693No the idea was return to America and then to Spain

This is 1522, meanwhile in 1417 before Magellans voyage the ancient king of Sulu Philippines, known by the name King Paduka Batara of Sulu Philippines (Paduka Pahala in other sources) set sail for China for a tribute mission. Accompanying him in his journey were two other Muslim leaders as well as 340 members of their delegation, including Batara’s two wives and three sons.
As was the tradition during those days, the Sulu king also brought with him gifts-among them pearls, tortoiseshell, precious stones, and a “memorial inscribed on gold.” The purpose of the trip, after all, was to establish a friendship with the Ming Dynasty’s Emperor Yongle.
The Chinese annals identified Batara as the “eastern king” and the most superior among the three. The two other rulers, Maharaja Kolamating and Paduka Prabhu, were described as “western king” and “cave king,” respectively. It is believed that Paduka Prabhu was Paduka Batara’s brother-in-law who most likely came from Borneo.
After arriving in Chinese shores in August of 1417, the group made its way to Hangzhou where they embarked on a fleet of barges that would take them to Beijing. The Emperor was delighted with the gifts he received from the Sulu delegates, and he reciprocated it with probably the finest hospitality the group had ever experienced-silk clothing, private accommodation, and entertainment worthy of royalty
And then Magellan will became hero while Lapu lapu in the eyes of every Spanish is a traitor.
Lapu Lapu isn't a traitor to the Spanish, because he never pledge allegiance to them, he was simply the chief of a tribe in a Philippines island. What are you talking about?
As an Indonesian, we're taught about it nemerous time on the history lesson, about Magellan's journey n how they arrived in Maluku (Mollucca), and started to do the monopoly trade. And unfortunately, that's how the colonialization began😕

citizengiants hahaha true! Just for the hell of it!
Kyoshi Kozan He missed the day difference between what the Spanish people at home and what the travellers counted. First proof that the Earth is turning around itself. :) But awesome summary, nonetheless
LiamPhill Oh, I didn't know that actually! I see you are a man of culture as well
I wouldnt call that the first proof
Wrong title, Magellan did not circumnavigated the world, the first man to circumnavigate the world was the spanish captain Juan Sebastian Elcano 1519－1521, and the second one also spanish Andres de Urdaneta in 1525－1636 who also discovered the return journey in the Pacific, posible best sailor in the Pacific.
Magallanes comenzó la vuelta al mundo,bajo la bandera de España, a Portugal no le interesaba, pues hacia la ruta por África, por eso intentó de hacer fracasar la expedición, el valiente Magallanes, murió en un enfrentamiento en Filipinas con los indígenas, siendo conseguida la primera circunnavegación del del globo, por el marino español, Juan Sebastian el Cano, Magallanes,sólo hizo la mitad de la ruta, nunca la completó

bruh the worm fr
I knew most of these! Hooray! On a side note Magellan landed in Limasawa at noon THEN went to Cebu (its in a song guys cmon) they also forgot to mention that they were converting natives to Catholicism. Also people in the comments seem confused with the treatment of Lapu-Lapu, again if you mentioned that they were converting people in the first place you wouldn't have this confusion. From the perspective of Humabon and the Spaniards he was a rebel for refusing to convert to Catholicism . He refused to obey the authority of Rajah Humabon. But make no mistake that Lapu-Lapu was not a hero. Lapu-lapu IS a hero, he is a hero because he is the first person to resist foreign rule in the hundreds of years we've been colonized lapu-lapu is a reminder to us that if we won a fight against our colonizers before then we can certainly do it again. Magellan, Lapu-lapu, both of these historical figures are important in history for different reasons, and in telling a story there always has to be a bad guy, but do not forget that in real life it's not black and white. There are different sides to every story just because you're hearing one side of doesn't mean that your version is wrong. Magellan gave us proof that the world was indeed round. Lapu-lapu gave us a symbol of fighting for our right to freedom. Not one is necessarily bad and it's important to know and acknowledge all the sides of the story for a clearer picture and less misunderstanding.
Behold the lengths mankind will go for good-tasting food!
Enrique was a Cebuano. He was captured in the Philippines as a young boy and sold as a slave in Malacca where Magellan bought him in an auction. Pigafetta's journal entry said that Enrique stayed behind amongst the people who spoke the language of his childhood which is Cebuano.
at 5:07 the animation does show that the dictionary compiled by
pigafetta and enrique have spanish and cebuano entries and i can
even make some words: si = Oo, sol = adlao. btw i am a cebuano.

He did not circumnavigate the world. He died in the Philippines after invading one of the islands. It was Sebastian Del Cano who made the whole circumnavigation. This is an integral part of our History lessons here in the Philippines.
La primera persona en dar la vuelta al mundo no fue Fernando de Magallanes, sino el marino español Juan Sebastián Elcano. :) es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Sebasti%C3%A1n_Elcano
Greetings from "The Spicy Island" Indonesia =)) Nice vid!
Every time I go back to Cebu, I always remember Magellan how he never set foot on dry ground and when I do land at Mactan international airport, I know I'm going have a great, fun and safe Vacation in the Philippines.. :)
He did not, the remaining crew of his fleet did.
Magellan died in Cebu.
His name in portuguese is FERNÃO DE MAGALHÃES, it is dificult to pronounce for non portuguese speakers, but Magellan sound like other person...I guess it can be corrected. Thank you ;-)
We don't care. He's a COLONIZER and ENSLAVER to us. Celebrating Magellan is like celebrating Columbus brutally killing natives. It doesn't work out in this day and age.

Man, no matter how adventurous I am, I could never just basically trust a stranger and sail into the unknown; unknown seas, lands and time! Also, this is major world history and I’m surprised there hasn’t been a huge miniseries about this. I think it totally deserves one.
Fun Fact: If you go to Cebu in the Philippines, you will find a stone slab with a plaque on it, a monument to Ferdinand Magellan and his voyage. On the opposite side of the slab you will find another plaque, a monument to Lapu-Lapu, the Filipino warrior who slew Magellan.
One story, two sides.
Cebuano here. Actually, if you go to Cebu you will find a slab for Magellan but only to mark the spot where he docked but we have a statue to honor Lapu Lapu. Raja Humabon used Magellan as a pawn in his war with Lapu Lapu. Magellan's eagerness to impress the Raja was his downfall.
And what the celebration from the West comes problems to the East. Hurray!
Honestly, thanks for uniting "Las Islas Filipinas" from a broken cluster of kingdoms and introducing new plants here, but by removing parts of our culture and establishing a colonial base with a special prize of slaving the natives, "Filipinos" aren't proud that you have set foot on our land.
Whatever, 377 years of invasion is just a short time! What could possibly go wrong in that period?

This was part of our lesson in Araling Panlipunan (Philippine History). Part of our examinations are the important dates, names of the people involved in this expedition, as well as the names of the 5 ships given to Magellan for this expedition.
In short, he DID NOT circumnavigate the globe. He helped prove though that the earth is round.

Thank you for this, TED-Ed!

It took 89 days For Columb to reach Caribbean. Those crazy bunch just 2 years later sailed the 3 years long journey around the world in a completely unknown world.
Imagine that
As a speaker of both the Spanish and Cebuano languages, I love how you can see the Spanish translation of the Cebuano words from what Antonio Pigafetta heard back then on this video. It's so cool. Adlaw as "adlo" meaning "Sol/día" or day/sun and "oo" for "sí". It's cool!
One of the best books I have ever read:
"Over the Edge of the World: Magellan's Terrifying Circumnavigation of the Globe"
THEE best book I ever read(twice) excellent info, killed the mutineeers but being religous. could not kill the traitor priest so he left him on an island off brazil.....
Wow, the Cebuano language (or more locally known as Sugbu-anon) was the first ever recorded Philippine language by a European Chronicler... I hope the Philippine Gov't will preserved this beautiful language and not only the tagalog one.
Sus mao gyud nay naka apan sainyoha mga bag ong lusok nga mga bisaya, maghulat pa mo sa goberno nga ipreserba ang atong language nga pwede ra man unta kita mubuhat ana mismo. Tan-awang nga bisaya karon o mas gatudluan og eninglish ilang bata mga hilas kaayo paminawon. Kamo man mismo mupasigarbo ana. Gacringe gyud ko anang mu- ingon nga genocide ang filipino language( tagalog), iggiiiit!! Nga mismo ang mga bisaya man gapakagamay sa binisaya, ignon dayun og "kabisaya ba nimo oy", tubagon pa nako "pisti man diay ka, kay bisaya man ko. Taga tuhod ra ka nako aykog pakagamyi". Dili ra kay cebu, apil pud nang ubang phil languages diha. Ako lumad kagay-anon(CDO) pero ga take pride gyud ko anang binisaya, ako na mismo gadiskobre sa mga bisaya words nga wala nako nahibal-an kaniadto. Wala man nuoy dautan anang hawod ka sa laing pinulongan pero kinanglan kabalo ka saimong identity ba. So therefore I conclude nga kita ra mismo bisaya gabitad paubos sa atong pinulongan.
Hello from Malaysia
Hola!
they don't speak spanish there duh
I think it's safe to assume that "Hola!" could easily be identified as a greeting.
Hi neighbor. Hope your doing fine. :)
Hello there south-western neighbor
i think today for me Philippines was coincidence
doni zetta why???
all these years in the school we were taught that Magellan was the first to circumnavigate the globe.. but the truth comes out
If you're a Filipino I think you know the answer in the popular childhood question "1 plus 1" 😂
Magellan is very famous here in the Philippines, even children know who Magellan is!
Ferdinand Magellan, a great man who circumnavigated the world..
Lapu-Lapu: *lol no*
3:43 Si Lapu Lapu our first Philippine Hero, A true Filipino who refused to be colonised!
A savage Neanderthal who killed a brave voyager, yeah, smth to be proud of, u rice eating monkey.
currently living at Mactan, nice beaches with tropical weather and lot of 5 star resorts.
Sounds like half of Ted's watchers are from the Philippines ... have a nice hot and sweaty tropical day !
Its always hot and sweaty tropical here... all year. Wish we had winter.
Canadians wouldn't really agree with that.

Hey. Thank You, man. If you have time and means, please feel free to visit us. Promise, you'll like it here. Kiiara's been here recently.
All you people are from Mactan ? I can't believe it.
I wanted to visit the Philippines some years ago after South East Asia, I already had my big plans, some weeks in Thailand again, then 1 month in Palawan and Philippines, and maybe Palau or Indonesia. but this was quite expensive, as I planned to rent a car, and all these plane tickets, some dives, etc.
I think I'll remember about Mactan when I'm ready to go ;-)
Is amazing that ElCano and the surviving crew made the full voyage profitable.
thinking what would have happened if magellan actually knew where the spice island was
Nananahimik si Lapu Lapu ginulo mo yan tuloy namatay ka
HAHAHAHA! Nakipagkasunduhan pa kasi siya kay Rajah Humabon ng Cebu, yan tuloy napatay... WAHAHAHA!!!
this would make an awesome movie
Here in the Philippines, it is....
Lol is Magellan played by a philipino?
ezra cyr No
There are so many here lmfao
Magellan died
West: Shame
East: Serves him right
Good info. I didn't know that Magellan never made it back alive. Thank you for this.
thank god you helped me with my home work on history of the Philippines 😀
All our history books from Grade 1 to Highschool tell that Magellan is an invader. And never did any mention that he was just caught with some local chieftain battles. Poor guy.
