    06 SEPTEMBER 1522 - NAO VICTORIA SAILS INTO SEVILLE AFTER A HISTORIC
    JOURNEY: After three years, 42,000 miles, and the first circumnavigation
    of the world, the Nao Victoria sails back into her Spanish home port.
    Of the original five ships and more than 200 sailors that started
    Magellan's expedition, only the Victoria and 18 men have returned from
    the globe-spanning voyage.

    Nao Victoria was a carrack and the first ship to successfully
    circumnavigate the world. Victoria was part of the Spanish expedition
    to the Moluccas commanded by the explorer Ferdinand Magellan until his
    death in the Philippines in 1521.
