Thomas Cavendish

From One Piece Encyclopedia

Sir Thomas Cavendish (or Candish) (19 September 1560, Trimley St. Martin, Suffolk, England died c. May 1592, in the North Atlantic) was known as "the Navigator" because he was the first who deliberately set out to circumnavigate the globe. While members of 's, 's, 's, and 's expeditions had preceded Cavendish in circumnavigating the globe, it had not been their intent at the outset. After his first circumnavigation, which made him rich from Spanish gold, he set out for a second but was not as fortunate and died a young man of 32 at sea.

[edit] One Piece

He has not been referenced in One Piece, but was brought up in an SBS question from a fan on the basis for Bege's name. However, Bege's name is based on Al Capone, a notorious American mobster, befitting Bege's mafia theme.
