Bartholomeu Dias aspired the route to India when he sailed around the Cape of Good Hope, at the southern tip of Africa in 1487. Eventually, King Manuel I of Portugal asked Da Gama to continue Dias’ explorations in 1497.  With the order from his king, Da Gama sailed from Lisbon on July 8, 1497 with four ships and about 170 men.
