And the Portuguese king had no interest in finding the western route. In 1517, Magellan went to Spain and proposed to King Charles The 5th to find this western route to the coast of South America.

  4. What the results of Magellan's voyage were. The results of Magellan’s voyage proved that the world was round and you would not fall off of the edge of the earth if you sailed to far. The trip also gave mapmakers a true indication of the size of the world.
