Bartolomeu Dias did not claim any of the land he explored during his expeditions. His main goal as a Portuguese explorer was to find a trade route to India by sailing around the southern tip of Africa, which he achieved in 1488. His discoveries were significant in paving the way for future European exploration and colonization of Africa.
