Vasco da Gama holding a navigation tool right of value above map, all inside decorated ring interrupted by the legend.

Vasco da Gama, 1st Count of Vidigueira (c. 1460s–1524), was a Portuguese explorer and the first European to reach India by sea. His initial voyage to India (1497–1499) was the first to link Europe and Asia by an ocean route, connecting the Atlantic and the Indian oceans and therefore, the West and the Orient. Da Gama's discovery of the sea route to India was significant and opened the way for an age of global imperialism and for the Portuguese to establish a long-lasting colonial empire in Asia.
