Answer:
On May 20, 1498, sailing for the Portuguese crown, Vasco da Gama reached Calicut, what is now Kozhikode, India. He successfully sailed around the southern tip of Africa and pioneered a sea route from Europe to Asia that bypassed the Muslim nations that controlled the overland spice trade.
Da Gama was the first European to reach the lucrative trade centers of India by sea. Portugal and other European empires had been trading with communities in India and throughout Southeast Asia for centuries.
