Historical notes:
Baía de Todos os Santos or Bahía de Todos os Santos (All Saints' Bay) is the largest bay in the state of Bahía, Brazil. The city of São Salvador da Bahía de Todos os Santos, or Salvador is located on its peninsula and was the first formally established Spanish settlement in Brazil. The bay was discovered by Amerigo Vespucci on November 1, 1501.Admiral de Gennes had two purposes in this voyage supported by Louis XIV --to create trouble for Spain and to take booty. Six ships sailed ostensibly to establish a colony at the Strait of Magellan. They stopped on the African coast where they raided a fort, taking slaves and goods that were then sold by one of the ships in the Antilles. The other ships continued on to Rio de Janeiro and down the South American coast to the Strait of Magellan, but they had to turn back due to a shortage of food. They returned to La Rochelle in April 1697.
