What are you trying to say? If you are trying to say that you sailed to the Pacific Ocean from France, I would write it:
From France, I sailed to the Pacific Ocean.
If you are trying to say that you sailed the Pacific Ocean to France, it would be incorrect. You would not sail the Pacific Ocean to get to France. You would sail the Atlantic Ocean to get to France. If this is so, I would write it:
Through the Atlantic Ocean, I sailed to France.

The spoils system reached a height during the presidency of Andrew Jackson, and this created tensions in the political class.
For this reason, Congress adopted the Pendleton Act in 1883. This act determined that civil servants should be appointed based on merit. It even led to the creation of entry-exams for government officials. Finally, it also prohibited the demotion of government officials because of political reasons.
