The Infante D. Henrique, the major driver of the Portuguese discoveries, was one of the most illustrious figures in human history, responsible for the Portuguese maritime expansion.
The Portuguese discoveries were a set of maritime voyages and explorations made by the Portuguese between 1415 and 1543, which gave a fundamental contribution to shape a map of the world, advances in technology and nautical science, cartography and astronomy, and the development of the first ships to navigate safely at sea, which generated the discovery of a new world.
