Columbus discovered the American continent, while on a voyage to reach India by the western route!
It was in his attempt to find a sea route to India that the Portuguese navigator, Bartholomew Diaz discovered the Cape Of Good Hope (South Africa).
It was the attempt of Magellan to reach India, by sailing further westwards from America that resulted in the discovery of the Philippines.
