Définition(s)

  • Vasco da Gama was a Portuguese navigator and explorer and the first European who succeeded in reaching India after circumnavigating the African continent. He thus opened the way for new sea routes for trade and laid the foundations for the Portuguese Empire in Eastern Africa, India, and Indonesia, making his homeland for a period the main commercial leader in Europe.
