Sic Parvis Magna

Sic Pacvis Magna

"Greatness from small beginnings"

Sebuah motto hidup dari Sir Francis Drake yang terkena dikalangan bangsawan Inggris saat masanya karena teah diberi gelar 'Sir' serta juga terkena dikalangan para gamer Uncharted oleh harta karun yang ia pendam di berbagai tempat dengan berbagai puzzle yang ia siapkan :hammer: namun ia benar-benar ada.

At age twenty-three, Drake made his first voyage to the New World, sailing with his second cousin, Sir John Hawkins, on one of a fleet of ships owned by his relatives, the Hawkins family of Plymouth. In 1568 Drake was again with the Hawkins fleet when it was trapped by the Spaniards in the Mexican port of San Juan de Ulúa. He escaped along with Hawkins.
Following the defeat at San Juan de Ulúa, Drake vowed revenge. He made two voyages to the West Indies, in 1570 and 1571, of which little is known.
In 1572, he embarked on his first major independent enterprise. He planned an attack on the Isthmus of Panama, known to the Spanish as Tierra Firme and the English as the Spanish Main. This was the point at which the silver and gold treasure of Peru had to be landed and sent overland to the Caribbean Sea, where galleons from Spain would pick it up at the town of Nombre de Dios. Drake left Plymouth on May 24, 1572, with a crew of 73 men in two small vessels, the Pascha (70 tons) and the Swan (25 tons), to capture Nombre de Dios.
His first raid was late in July 1572. Drake and his men captured the town and its treasure. When his men noticed that Drake was bleeding profusely from a wound, they insisted on withdrawing to save his life and left the treasure. Drake stayed in the area for almost a year, raiding Spanish shipping and attempting to capture a treasure shipment.
In 1573, he joined Guillaume Le Testu, a French buccaneer, in an attack on a richly laden mule train. Drake and his party found that they had captured around 20 tons of silver and gold. They buried much of the treasure, as it was too much for their party to carry. (An account of this may have given rise to subsequent stories of pirates and buried treasure). Wounded, Le Testu was captured and later beheaded. The small band of adventurers dragged as much gold and silver as they could carry back across some 18 miles of jungle-covered mountains to where they had left the raiding boats. When they got to the coast, the boats were gone. Drake and his men, downhearted, exhausted and hungry, had nowhere to go and the Spanish were not far behind.
At this point Drake rallied his men, buried the treasure on the beach, and built a raft to sail with two volunteers ten miles along the surf-lashed coast to where they had left the flagship. When Drake finally reached its deck, his men were alarmed at his bedraggled appearance. Fearing the worst, they asked him how the raid had gone. Drake could not resist a joke and teased them by looking downhearted. Then he laughed, pulled a necklace of Spanish gold from around his neck and said "Our voyage is made, lads!" By August 9, 1573, he had returned to Plymouth.

Kira-kira seperti itulah sejarah singkatnya, silahkan di translate jika tidak mengerti atau search di wikipedia Indonesia Sir Francis Drake

Apa yang mau gw bahas disini? gw bukan mau membahas orangnya soalnya gw bener-bener ngak tau, gw bakal ngebahas tentang Motto yang ia ciptakan pada sebuah cincin peraknya (Kalo di game :hammer:) Sic Parvis Magna

Mungkin kalau diartikan dalam bahasa Indonesia jadinya seperti ini, Semua kehebatan atau kebesaran semuanya diawali dari permualaan yang kecil.

Itu semua sangat benar! tidak ada segala hal yang besar langsung datang begitu saja dan juga tidak mungkin kesempatan untuk menjadi besar tidak diawali oleh permualaan yang kecil. Dan juga semua itu diawali dengan adanya kemauan, lalu kita niat untuk melakukan hal kecil tersebut, dan juga kita selalu berjuang serta tidak pernah mengeluh melakukan hal yang kecil tersebut.
