1. Arrival at Guam

    · Guam, Mariana Islands, United States

    After crossing the Pacific, Magellan reached Guam; he ordered a retaliatory raid after Chamorro people took the flagship's boat and other items. The directly described action by Magellan occurred the day after the 6 March arrival; month precision avoids assigning an inferred day to his landing-party action. Coordinates represent Guam generally.
