Esto es rigurosamente falso. Juan Sebastián Elcano era el comandante de la nao Victoria en la circunnavegación porque los hombres le nombraron capitán, a pesar de que inició la expedición como maestre de la Concepción. Magallanes nunca fue comandante, era el capitán general. [Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL(6-0-1) Author

He was effectively the first commander to circumnavigate the globe. [Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL(2-0-0) Author

The thread gives credit where it is not due. Beyond quibbling over whether Elcano was “expedition commander” or not, after the first circumnavigation there was even a SECOND one with Urdaneta and Loayza, rendering Drake’s trip pretty irrelevant. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(1-0-0) Author
