🏝️ Exploring the Pacific: Magellan's Mistake - Ferdinand Magellan has made a very, very big mistake. Determined to circumnavigate the world, and cross the ocean Balboa had sighted in 1513, he’d just finished a perilous four-month journey-rounding South America and making it all the way to a previously unknown series of islands: the Philippines. He’d gotten involved in local politics, converting a ruler and his kingdom to the Catholic faith. But to keep their new conquest secure, they must crush a rival sub-chieftain, Lapulapu, who would not submit to Catholicism. Magellan tells his local allies to stay on the ship-he will take forty-nine men and overawe Lapulapu’s men with muskets and crossbows. They wade into knee-deep water, firing muskets, but to little effect. The Mactan warriors are unafraid of their weapons. Magellan has come a long way to die in the surf.

Fun fact: Magellan was actually portuguese. His name was Fernão de Magalhães, but due to some circumstances he fled Portugal and went to Spain. There he naturalized as a Spanish and thus he had his name change to Fernando de Magallanes

As the guy who was conquered by them i can confirm.....

@juanantoniogragasin1685 4 года назад

0:28 As a Filipino myself I would like to correct this. It actually wasn't because Lapu-Lapu would not submit to Catholicism it's because the Rajah (chieftain) of Cebu known as Humabon was Rival to Lapu-Lapu and because Lapu-Lapu would not submit to Humabon. Here's the story: The Rajah (Chieftain) of Cebu was the most powerful and influential of all the Rajah's (Chieftains) in the Visayas (the second group of islands in The Philippines). When Magellan came to Cebu Humabon called all the Rajah's to a gathering and they decided to see what the Spanish had to offer. Humabon was amazed of the technology and armoury that Magellan had to offer and decided to ally with them but Lapu-Lapu was not impressed and refused to submit to Humabon's decision to ally Spain. (Humabon most likely saw this as a direct challenge to his authority) and so he struck a deal with Magellan. Magellan would secure the allegiance of Humabon to Spain through converting him to Catholicism while Humabon would have Magellan to go with him and conquer Lapu-Lapu to make him submit. And then Magellan told the Rajah's to sit back and watch them get killed....... That's basically it or at least that's how my history teacher and our books taught us. I'm sorry if your sick of seeing Filipinos in every Philippine relate video but i couldn't help myself 😁. Hope ya guy's learned something☺️.

@JohnnyElRed 4 года назад

Magellan thinking he could defeat Lapu Lapu's tribe with only 49 men, and no help from his native allies, was definetly a mistake Cortéz in Mexico didn't made. Many seem to forget that the only reason those conquests were so sucessful, was because the Spanish knew how to make native allies of their own to topple the more powerful tribes and city states on the region. Except Magellan. He made the mistake of believing his own hype. But Magellan's and Elcano's circumnavigation of the world needs its own series. Specially, because in 2 years it will be 5 centuries exactly since they sucessfully returned to Spain.

I doubt they can. Filipino historians can't even do that due to the lack of reliable and available sources.

The reasons behind his philosophy explains why Spanish-era history is so complicated and hazy.

4:17 This part regarding your statement regarding the amalmagation of Austronesian, Spanish, and Mexican culture as attributes of the collective identity of Filipinos is unexpected. I am surprised you pointed that out because some, if not most people, including Filipinos don't know that or at least rejects certain aspects of it specially those rooted from colonial rule because they think it's "colonial mentality." They see The Philippines as purely Asian or Asian with a bit of Hispanic which I'd argue is an oversimplification. It is also interesting that the Manila-Acapulco Galleon Trade spread Filipino culture to other nations such as Guam, Mexico, and Spain. Mantón de Manila, used in Flamenco and other dances has its roots from pre-colonial Filipinas where they dress with shawls over their shoulders. Even the traje de mestiza (Filipiniana or Maria Clara dress), which reached certain parts of the Spanish East Indies. There's also a theory that the guayabera has its origin from the Filipino Baroñg Tagaló as a result of the Galleon Trade. Same goes with the Manga de Manila, the pith helmet originating from pre-colonial salakot (salacot in Spanish and French), tuba in certain parta of Mexico, language influences etc.

Okay i have a suggestion for the Extra Credits team: I think the Extra History episodes are getting very undetailed. You only skim the topics because that you try to throw a lot of stories into one episode. Perhaps you should try to revisit one of your older series like the one on Khosrau, Suleiman or Justinian. These episodes spends a whole series to focus on one person or at least one person’s sorroundings. I, personally, learned more from each episode back then.

Okay, unless I missed it, how did the spanish go that damn long in the pacific and not hit hawaii first? Is it because they had contact, but it is ignored or seen as untenable like the marquis Islands, or did they just manage to miss it, or are there just no written records of this? Cause it seems like the Spanish should have hit the islands first, not england. Also I never realized that the spanish trade was like that, I figured they went around africa and India theough the straight of Malacca like the Portugese and British, but this was interesting to learn. Great episode.

@aquila4460 4 года назад

Because Hawaii sits between two major current/wind systems, one going west the other east, but neither really hits it. So if you are only following the winds... you are probably not going to hit Hawaii.

@AuChoco 4 года назад

It's because of the trade winds. They didn't have the Panama Canal back then so they had to sail all the way to the tip of South America and through the Strait of Magellan (hence the name) and sail back north and ride the eastward current of the equator to the East Indies. Since Hawaii was farther north of that current, and the current flowed away from it, they totally missed it, leaving it for James Cooke to come in contact with it centuries later when navigation technology was more advanced

@xXxSkyViperxXx 4 года назад

@AuChoco 4 года назад

As for the way the Spanish traded, they had a rivalry with the Portuguese on trade routes so they contacted the Pope like any sensible Iberian would do at the time and they literally made a treaty splitting the world in two parts for them to colonize individually called the Treaty of Tordesillas. They drew a demarcation line that they believed was just off the coast of the Americas. Everything east of the line was Portuguese, everything west of the line was Spanish, so the Spanish had to sail all the way to the west to reach the far east instead of passing through the Cape of Good Hope in Africa. That line is also why most of the Americas speak Spanish. Another quirk of that line was that unbeknownst to the people who created it, it actually cut off a tiny bit of coast from South America for Portugal, which later became the Portuguese territory of Brazil

Magellan Forces used Intimidation. Is not very effective... Edit: I have a theory of why the Mactan warriors were unafraid against the spanish muskets: My theory is that gunpowder wasn't new for them. The Phillipines served as refuge for several chinese and japanese pirates, called Wokou, and they carried cannons and primitive rockets on their ships (just for comparison, the oldest "handgun" invented in China dates from 1288). The relationship between the local kingdoms and the Wokou varied from region to region, with some of them fighting against the pirates, and others helping the bandits.

@Master_Pogi 4 года назад

Another fun fact: John Moses Browning designed and developed the M1911 semiautomatic pistol to replace the US military standard issue Colt .38 revolvers. The revolver rounds lacked the stopping power the Americans needed against Filipino guerillas during the Filipino-American war.

@johnyricco1220 4 года назад

Yes they traded regularly with the Chinese. They knew about gunpowder and how slow muzzleloading guns worked. They had iron weapons and some tribes even learned to make chain mail, probably from the Arabs so they knew how to defeat armor.

@@johnyricco1220 I agree, especially on the information given by the Arabs. It was believed that early Filipinos were Muslim.

@AngryKittens 4 года назад

"Theory"? Of course gunpowder wasn't new to them. Native Southeast Asian Austronesian ships have CANNONS. The Philippines unlike the Americas or Oceania have long-standing trade relations with India, China, Japan, Srivijaya/Majapahit, Champa, and Martaban (Burma). They've seen white people before, as well as armor. And they have metallurgy.

@gollolocura 3 года назад

Dear Extra Credits, I love your content and your history series in particular and I believe I have noticed a little mistake, which I'd like to point out not as a negative judgement to you but for the mere sake of clarity and historical precision. At 1:38 you state that Magellan rounded Cape Horn, when he did not. He crossed through the passage that today bears his name (which, curiously enough, he himself gave the name of the "Strait of the Patagons", yet history disregarded his bautism in favor of the expeditionist's name) which is some 150 miles north of the cape. Cape Horn is named after the dutch expedition that rounded it some 100 years after Magellan's circunnavigation.

Datu Lapu-Lapu is depicted with a sword and shield in his monument in Mactan. But some legends say that his weapon of choice was "alho" - a kind of pestle about the size of a man used by the natives to remove shells of grain. It is made of a strong wood most likely 'tugas' or 'bayong' which were common at that time. Previously, the Lapu-Lapu Monument was wielding a bow and arrow pointed directly at the City Hall's entrance, and 2 mayors at that time mysteriously died prompting the locals to tale urban legends and subsequently altered the monument altogether.

Not sure but I think I read in a book that part of the reason for Magellan's defeat was that it was low tide so the ships couldn't support the troops. The humid climate did not help keep the powder dry for the muskets. Magellan is often portrayed as an early example of a foreign invader to Filipino s school children though it is also mentioned that it was at the behest of Lapu-Lapu's rival.
