Vasco da Gama, born at Sines, a small seaport of Portugal, of a noble family, discovered the route to the East Indies by sea — a discovery of the greatest importance, not only in regard to commerce, but to the civilization and political relations or Europe, and which laid the foundation of the commercial power of Portugal in the Indian seas.
