1526.-Six days after going into the vastness of the Pacific Ocean on June 2, the squad found another storm that broke García Jofre de Loaísa expedition to conquer Molucas.
After some months and many hardships, the expedition arrives in a land that only appears in the imagination of some scientists. The so called terra australis incognita (in fact is New Zealand, but I want give it a "new name", you know, more bombastically than New Zealand) The land was found depopulated.
Some years later, fear of a British base in the Pacific would make Spain to create a colony in the islands (a most successful attempt than the Salomon Islands, of course)



The question is: is all plausible? what would be the next step?
