@braga boyz44 just don't call the indigenous tribes "Brazilians", Brazil only exists because of portuguese colonisation. And colonisation has been practiced by all peoples. After such a huge mistake you are in no position to lecture someone about ignorance.

Hey! Feitorias wasn't factories! Feitorias was outposts in which Portuguese assure the territorial domains and trade with the local communities. And the first mass celebrated here was in Cabralia, now in Bahia State, at 1500, april 26th, 4 days later of the Cabral's landing, at april, 22nd
Absolutely amazing. It is so clear and precise. Having watched two episodes, I wish I could have had access to such a wonderful thing when I was a kid. If I had time, I would write a book on Albuquerque. Thank you, thank you!
Excellent video. Just a point I hadn't seen mentioned in the comments, one of the major motivations for Portuguese exploration was to continue the Crusade against Muslims and find the legendary Prester John who would aid them in their fight against the Moors. As expressed in Vasco Da Gama's famous response to the question of what the Portuguese were in India for; " Christians and spices".
You do understand that was a propaganda document... You always have to put these things in context. The "Prester John" claim is laughable, the crusading motivation is something to consider. Nonetheless the main motivation was commercial.
@@pikeshotBattles Thanks for responding! The reason I shared that point on Prester John and crusading is because it is cited in numerous history books I've read on the matter, not my own judgement. In fact, the reason I was watching your videos is because I'm in the middle of a reading binge on the subject! Here are my references; "The Portuguese were looking to establish an anti-Muslim alliance with Prester John, a mythical Christian King who according to medieval legend was living among the Heathens"- pg 40, The Portuguese, A Modern History, by Barry Hatton "From a mixture of motives, he(Prince Henry) turned his countrymen southwards... Perhaps too, there was a possibilty of finding an ally here to take the Ottomans in the flank, the legendary Prester John. Certainly there were converts , glory and land to be won for the Cross"- pg 521, The Penguin History of the World "On his(John II) accession he embarked on an intense five-year period of state-funded exploration in which he hoped to fulfill two objectives; find a route to the Indies and reach the fabled Kingdom of Prester John"- pg 18, Conquerors, How Portugal Forged the First Global Empire. In fact, this book mentions Prester John as a motivation numerous times from different sources. Fitting because it is specifically a history of the first journeys to India and not a summary. Henry the Navigator was a member of the Knights Templar and then the Military Order of Christ, reputedly going to grave as a virgin due to his piety. The Portuguese identity was very much linked to the successful Reconquista, and the catalyst for the exploration boom was the attack on Ceuta which was a direct continuation of the Moorish war. So it seems to me that the Portuguese venture did have a strong faith-based motive, at least relative to Spain and certainly compared to the English and the Dutch whose motivation was purely commercial. Please correct me if I am mistaken and thank you for the great videos!
@@Daxcheese555 Yes, I know all these references. But the thing to keep in mind is that people back then were just as intelligent as we are, and possibly much less superstitious than we are today(!). It is always one thing that the government wants and another thing what they communicate to the outside world. But this should be clear in these troubled times, I shouldn't even be explaining this. Maybe in the revamped version I will include this quest for Prester John as a >stated< goal.

There shouldn't be an omission of the kidnapping and human-trafficking at the fortresses and ports established by the Portuguese off the coast of Sub-Saharan Africa. With regards to the facts, trades in India were considered economically feasible and tilted in favor of the Portuguese. The resourcing that was of free labor is attributed to Sub-Saharan Africans who became the unofficial forms of human capital begotten by these seafaring merchants throughout the years of transacting in unjust ways; namely, those which involved bribery and extortion.
I cant believe the influence such a small country had.....I wish Portugal was alot larger and more populated with the Portuguese...I think they could have accomplished much more.
what influence🤡? It was Spain who started the Age of Discoveries, discovered America, opened up the trade routes, built Universities in their Viceroyalties. Portugal *killed* every native or black person wherever they set foot - lucky ones were sold as Slaves via the Slave Trade they strated in 1444
I use these to inspire me to play EU4. It does a good job of representing geography's role in empire building. But these would also make great teaching material.
At around 1:20 it says "in 1434 portugese explorers managed to sail basque(?) bohador(?), previously thought unnavigable".. What is basque(?) bohador(?)?

Thank you very much love your channel. I use it as a reference for my class discussion especially this topic and the spanish empire. It really help a lots.
I love how they started off referencing Columbus discovering America. Like the Vikings were not here 300 years prior? And there's even evidence the Phoenicians back from the bronze age made it here. There's evidence of them making it to the Sargasso Sea. (And the copper in their bronze weapons only match the Great lakes.)
So, basically...everyone wanted to do direct business with kingdoms in India.... That's amazing... Hope India's economic glory will not be a history...
I am so glad that the Portuguese came to Goa to civilize and Christianize us Goans. We are still the wealthiest part of the Indian Subcontinent (GDP per Capita), thanks to them.

Feitoria does not translate to factory! Fabrica translates to factory!... Although I am a very experienced interpreter and I struggle with it! 😂 , I think it comes from the word feito which means something that has been done, or a deed, so I think a feitoria is a place where you get things done, like a supply/logistics hub with an administration component, paperwork, licences etc. 🏫
These days the Portuguese Armada may be of little consequence, but it still covers the world's 10th largest economic exclusive zone. The Portuguese Armada was created over 700 years ago, in 1317 (funnily enough with a Genovese Admiral as they were the best sailors at the time). This makes the Armada the world’s oldest continually serving navy. They had specialised ships, weaponry and tactics at the time, not yet relying on their Marines, which were first formed in 1618, during the dustup with the Dutch. When you look at it like this, anyone at the time that Vasco da Gama sailed out to give someone a bloody nose would have gotten one. Incidentally in the late 50s, most of the Portuguese Armada was converted from the blue water navy to a brown water force as the country fought a debilitating 13 year war across various countries in Africa. These conflicts were overshadowed by the Vietnam War, so most people wouldn't have heard of them. John. P. Cann, Research Fellow and retired Professor of National Security Studies at Marine Corps University wrote a series of books and Brown Waters of Africa, covers this topic
These guys were the original mobsters 😂 "You don't wanna give us exclusive trading rights? Frankie! Bombard their port! We'll see how he likes his Arabs then."
0:30 uhh, wait.. first, (1/3) the north of today's *Portugal* was granted with his own domain separated from the kingdom of *Asturias* , the reconquest in that part was made by the kingdoms of *Asturias* and *León* , then the kingdom of Portugal was created in the "granted" territories by those two. So hold on when talking about the reconquista because of that, (2/3) because of the fact that the hardcore of *Al-Andalus* was in the territories reconquered by Castile, León and Aragon, and (3/3) because the reconquest of the territories south of the recently created kingdom of *Portugal* was made by Portugal with the active help of *León* and *Castile* .
@@jacintovski you still what? I men that the way he present that fact is kind of misleading, as the well as the later assertion of portugal being the first global empire.
@@jacintovski the fact of the end of the reconquista in Portugal is not "goddam" as you said, because it is not that clear when it's compare to Spain, as I explain above. And to control (on that date) few key ports thus trade routes in the Indian Ocean is not being an empire, imho.

In Goa the Portuguese ended the Hindu practice of sati, the burning to death of a widow on her husband's funeral pyre. Indeed, the practice is outlawed and illegal in today's India, yet it occurs up to the present day and is still regarded by some Hindus as the ultimate form of womanly devotion and sacrifice. The Hindu women of Goa did not enjoy equal status with men. They were denied a number of rights such as those of education, inheritance, choice of their life partners, and so on. The lack of education kept the women in ignorance and they were exploited by the male dominated society. They were married off before they attained puberty. If a woman’s husband died while she was still young, she was not permitted to marry a second time but was forced to immolate herself on her husband’s funeral pyre. It was a fact that when the relatives knew that the victim would desist from undergoing sati, they generally threw her into the blazing flames, adding wood, oil and butter. But occasionally, she would jump out from the pyre before the fire could engulf her. To avoid any such incidence, the Hindu pundits made circular pits into which the widow was made to jump while the fire burnt high. If she refused to jump into the pyre or jumped out of it, she was considered unfaithful to her husband and was looked down upon by the society as a symbol of disgrace and humiliation. The satis were remembered by erecting sati-stones and placing lighted lamps where they committed sati. It is difficult to imagine the plight of the innocent child widows. It only reminds us of the stranglehold of religion on the Indian society. The Europeans were appalled by the abomination and took stern action against the custom. But the Hindu pandits deliberately dubbed them as anti-Indians and whipped up an anti-European hysteria in the country. It was Afonso de Albuquerque who banned sati in the Island of Goa as early as 1510. It is difficult to imagine the plight of the innocent child widows. It only reminds us of the stranglehold of religion on the Indian society. The Europeans were appalled by the abomination and took stern action against the custom. But the Hindu pandits deliberately dubbed them as anti-Indians and whipped up an anti-European hysteria in the country.

Hey! Feitorias wasn't factories! Feitorias was outposts in which Portuguese assure the territorial domains and trade with the local communities. And the first mass celebrated here was in Cabralia, now in Bahia State, at 1500, april 26th, 4 days later of the Cabral's landing, at april, 22nd

Excellent video. Just a point I hadn't seen mentioned in the comments, one of the major motivations for Portuguese exploration was to continue the Crusade against Muslims and find the legendary Prester John who would aid them in their fight against the Moors. As expressed in Vasco Da Gama's famous response to the question of what the Portuguese were in India for; " Christians and spices".
You do understand that was a propaganda document... You always have to put these things in context. The "Prester John" claim is laughable, the crusading motivation is something to consider. Nonetheless the main motivation was commercial.
@@pikeshotBattles Thanks for responding! The reason I shared that point on Prester John and crusading is because it is cited in numerous history books I've read on the matter, not my own judgement. In fact, the reason I was watching your videos is because I'm in the middle of a reading binge on the subject! Here are my references;
"The Portuguese were looking to establish an anti-Muslim alliance with Prester John, a mythical Christian King who according to medieval legend was living among the Heathens"- pg 40, The Portuguese, A Modern History, by Barry Hatton
"From a mixture of motives, he(Prince Henry) turned his countrymen southwards... Perhaps too, there was a possibilty of finding an ally here to take the Ottomans in the flank, the legendary Prester John. Certainly there were converts , glory and land to be won for the Cross"- pg 521, The Penguin History of the World
"On his(John II) accession he embarked on an intense five-year period of state-funded exploration in which he hoped to fulfill two objectives; find a route to the Indies and reach the fabled Kingdom of Prester John"- pg 18, Conquerors, How Portugal Forged the First Global Empire. In fact, this book mentions Prester John as a motivation numerous times from different sources. Fitting because it is specifically a history of the first journeys to India and not a summary.
Henry the Navigator was a member of the Knights Templar and then the Military Order of Christ, reputedly going to grave as a virgin due to his piety. The Portuguese identity was very much linked to the successful Reconquista, and the catalyst for the exploration boom was the attack on Ceuta which was a direct continuation of the Moorish war. So it seems to me that the Portuguese venture did have a strong faith-based motive, at least relative to Spain and certainly compared to the English and the Dutch whose motivation was purely commercial. Please correct me if I am mistaken and thank you for the great videos!
@@Daxcheese555 Yes, I know all these references. But the thing to keep in mind is that people back then were just as intelligent as we are, and possibly much less superstitious than we are today(!). It is always one thing that the government wants and another thing what they communicate to the outside world. But this should be clear in these troubled times, I shouldn't even be explaining this. Maybe in the revamped version I will include this quest for Prester John as a >stated< goal.
@@pikeshotBattles You forget that Portugese Colonised Goa was 400 yrs. During that time Christian missionaries were unleashing huge attrocities to convert people. Thousands Temples were destroyed. Countless Hindus fled the Colonised lands. Also those who converted were not allowed to follow any native culture. Hindus were looted and converted ones were given that money so their greed would stop them from converting back to original culture

The portuguese traded the slaves, but the slavery itself, were the African tribes that "created"..
After all, slavery is as old as human history, from, at least, the Egyptian times..
Still, trading slaves was as bad as "creating" them, so...
The slaves were literally bought from their own tribes. Portuguese didn't kidnap them, it was the africans that sold their people

Sometimes you need a Transylvanian medical student to explain the history of a country without bias and a romanticized view of it.

There shouldn't be an omission of the kidnapping and human-trafficking at the fortresses and ports established by the Portuguese off the coast of Sub-Saharan Africa. With regards to the facts, trades in India were considered economically feasible and tilted in favor of the Portuguese. The resourcing that was of free labor is attributed to Sub-Saharan Africans who became the unofficial forms of human capital begotten by these seafaring merchants throughout the years of transacting in unjust ways; namely, those which involved bribery and extortion.
Who started the slavery??? Yeah, Africans... They were the 1st ones to capture their own people to sell them...
Why what is there interesting about this
I cant believe the influence such a small country had.....I wish Portugal was alot larger and more populated with the Portuguese...I think they could have accomplished much more.
what influence🤡? It was Spain who started the Age of Discoveries, discovered America, opened up the trade routes, built Universities in their Viceroyalties. Portugal *killed* every native or black person wherever they set foot - lucky ones were sold as Slaves via the Slave Trade they strated in 1444

Feitoria does not translate to factory! Fabrica translates to factory!...

These days the Portuguese Armada may be of little consequence, but it still covers the world's 10th largest economic exclusive zone.
The Portuguese Armada was created over 700 years ago, in 1317 (funnily enough with a Genovese Admiral as they were the best sailors at the time). This makes the Armada the world’s oldest continually serving navy. They had specialised ships, weaponry and tactics at the time, not yet relying on their Marines, which were first formed in 1618, during the dustup with the Dutch.
When you look at it like this, anyone at the time that Vasco da Gama sailed out to give someone a bloody nose would have gotten one.
Incidentally in the late 50s, most of the Portuguese Armada was converted from the blue water navy to a brown water force as the country fought a debilitating 13 year war across various countries in Africa. These conflicts were overshadowed by the Vietnam War, so most people wouldn't have heard of them. John. P. Cann, Research Fellow and retired Professor of National Security Studies at Marine Corps University wrote a series of books and Brown Waters of Africa, covers this topic

So hold on when talking about the reconquista because of that, (2/3) because of the fact that the hardcore of *Al-Andalus* was in the territories reconquered by Castile, León and Aragon, and (3/3) because the reconquest of the territories south of the recently created kingdom of *Portugal* was made by Portugal with the active help of *León* and *Castile* .

Letter from a Mexican resident of Barcelona “Thank you, Spain, for making Mexico”:
“Thank you, Spain, for our faith, for our little God, our Virgin of Guadalupe, our processions, our brotherhoods, all with Spanish names.
Thank you, Spain, for our missionaries, our friars and Jesuits who came from Spain to educate our bodies and our souls; for the first mass in Cozumel, for the 12 Franciscans Friars Martín de Valencia, Motolinía, Andrés de Olmos, Bernardino de Sahagún, Gerónimo de Mendieta, Antonio de Roa, Juan de Zumárraga; for the blessed martyrs of Tlaxcala, Christian Indians murdered in 1527 for confessing Christ; by blessed Sebastián de Aparicio, he of the carts; and for San Felipe de Jesús, Mexican martyr in Japan at the age of 24 in 1597; for San Pedro de San José, for the Jesuit martyrs expanders of Mexico; and by Brother Antonio Margil the one with the winged feet; and to San Junípero Serra, the missionary from the north.
Thank you, Spain, for being above your time and England or Holland, and subordinating the mercantilist objectives of the Conquest to “the preaching of the Gospel” and the rise of civilization, as Philip II established in his Ordinances of 1573.
Thank you, Spain, for our kings, who gave us the Laws of the Indies to order viceroys, presidents, audiences, governors and royal justices, archbishops and ecclesiastical prelates “not to receive any wrong in our persons and property, and to be fairly treated.” while in the 13 English colonies the Indians were massacred.
Thank you, Spain, for the exaggerated Bartolomé de Las Casas and the just Francisco de Vitoria.
Thank you, Spain, for our race, for mixing your blood with ours, from Martín Cortés, son of Conquistador and Doña Marina, who received the habit of Santiago from the king to the viceroy José Sarmiento, count of Moctezuma; for rejecting the extermination and xenophobia practiced by the Anglo-Saxons in the north.
Thank you, Spain, for freeing us from the tyrant Moctezuma who enslaved 371 Mexican towns and subjected them to the anthropophagous idol Huitzilopochtli / Huichilobos, to which he sacrificed 20,000 human hearts every year.
Thank you, Spain, for giving us our heroic founder, Hernán Cortés, who conquered Tenochtitlán with barely 900 men against 150,000, and who considered himself worthless because “such a great work was finished by the weakest and most useless means that could be found.” , because it was an attribute only to God.”
Thank you, Spain, for our Royal University of Mexico of 1551 that you copied from Salamanca, and that of Mérida, and that of Guadalajara, and the colleges and schools where our people were formed.
Thank you, Spain, for bringing us the first printing press in America, a branch of the Sevillian printing press of Cromberger, and the first American book, 'The Spiritual Scale' by San Juan Clímaco.
Thank you, Spain, for our authors of the Golden Age, for our historian Fernando de Alva Ixtlilxochitl -son of the kings of Acolhuacán and Tenochtitlán-, who collected the history of our indigenous peoples by order of the viceroy; for our Ruiz de Alarcón born in Taxco, comparable in so many things to Lope de Vega and Tirso de Molina; and by Bernardino de Sahagún, who compiled our ethnography in Nahuatl in the 16th century itself.
Thank you, Spain, for our Sessé and Mociño, who cataloged more than 1,000 plant species for us.
Thank you, Spain, for the School of Mining, the Astronomical Observatory, the Museum of Natural History and others, which made Alexander von Humboldt say that “no city on this continent, without exception of those in the United States, has such large scientific establishments.” and solid like those of the capital of Mexico.”
Thank you, Spain, for our convents and bell towers, for the rectangular cities, with their main square, for Chihuahua, Guanajuato, Mexico, Veracruz, Mérida or Acapulco, for the magnificent Casa de Cortés in Cuernavaca, inspired by the Piedras Albas palace in Trujillo, or the beautiful Andalusian-style town hall of Tlaxcala, for the neighborhoods, for the shield temples, for the convents of Acolman, Ixmiquilpan, Actopan, Zacualpan, Atlizco or Huejotzingo; for the cathedral of Puebla, which is like that of Valladolid, or the Herrerian cathedral of Mexico, and that of Guadalajara, Oaxaca and Mérida, so similar to that of Jaén.

Thank you, Spain, for our mestizo gastronomy, which combines indigenous cuisine with Spanish-style stews, roasts, pork and dried meat.
Thank you, Spain, for our clothes, because we gathered the wool and cotton from the maguey fiber on the Spanish spinning wheels, and we put on hats, and we carried striped blankets on our shoulders like Spanish saddlebags, and we used your leather in shoes and atlases.

In Goa the Portuguese ended the Hindu practice of sati, the burning to death of a widow on her husband's funeral pyre. Indeed, the practice is outlawed and illegal in today's India, yet it occurs up to the present day and is still regarded by some Hindus as the ultimate form of womanly devotion and sacrifice.
The Hindu women of Goa did not enjoy equal status with men. They were denied a number of rights such as those of education, inheritance, choice of their life partners, and so on. The lack of education kept the women in ignorance and they were exploited by the male dominated society. They were married off before they attained puberty.
If a woman’s husband died while she was still young, she was not permitted to marry a second time but was forced to immolate herself on her husband’s funeral pyre.
It was a fact that when the relatives knew that the victim would desist from undergoing sati, they generally threw her into the blazing flames, adding wood, oil and butter. But occasionally, she would jump out from the pyre before the fire could engulf her. To avoid any such incidence, the Hindu pundits made circular pits into which the widow was made to jump while the fire burnt high. If she refused to jump into the pyre or jumped out of it, she was considered unfaithful to her husband and was looked down upon by the society as a symbol of disgrace and humiliation.
The satis were remembered by erecting sati-stones and placing lighted lamps where they committed sati. It is difficult to imagine the plight of the innocent child widows. It only reminds us of the stranglehold of religion on the Indian society. The Europeans were appalled by the abomination and took stern action against the custom. But the Hindu pandits deliberately dubbed them as anti-Indians and whipped up an anti-European hysteria in the country.
It was Afonso de Albuquerque who banned sati in the Island of Goa as early as 1510.

In return of this favour, Portuguese destroyed so many temples which had several men art and hardwork. abolishing sati was done by rajaram mohan roy
@@gokultr1290 centuries after the portuguese had taught some european human values to society, off course they became more educated demanding more respect. Respect is very important to be a man or woman with full potential!!! Sure there were bad actor in the portuguese side, but where isn't that the case? Ram Mohan was as great king and very educated, he rose to power against the brutalities of the arab and british colonialism. different times where the portuguese had already left a positive influence in Goa, Calcuta and others.
@@buteos8632 no sir, human values are always better in india than europe. those times india was rich in culture and education. you must read bhagvatgita.
@@gokultr1290 My wife is a hindu, so even though I haven't read the Bhagavad Gita, the "divine song" or the words of Krishna to Prince Arjun regarding the eternal rule/dharma of life, the good against evil and the necessity to take up arms against evil, even if it takes one to fight his own family, I am aware of it's philosophical lessons and my wife has narrated to me some passages, very similar to european culture in fact, not surprisingly! The events relate to the Mahabharata battle of succession and are believed to have happened around 1500BC and was partially written around 500BC, so...those days were long gone and 3000 years later the portuguese outlawed the burning of widows in Goa and other provinces. These are the known facts, you may romanticize and fantasize all you want but when I come to watch this video I'm looking for the facts not your opinions! Have a nice day. :)
@@buteos8632 agree to disagree
I am Vietnamese and I LOVE Portugal and her beautiful warm people.
VIVA PORTUGAL!
VIVA VIETNAM!
Amen.
you must be a misinformed Vietnamese because the rest of us know Portugal as the demon country that destroyed native African cultures and sold them off as Slaves in the Americas
@@HienNguyen-py5bz Mongolia and Japan did FAR FAR worse to Vietnam than Portugal ever did
@@HienNguyen-py5bz You probably think Europeans just ripped Africans out of their homes. LOL no. Africans sold rival tribes to Europeans. Also, there were white slaves in Africa as well.
Vocês têm muita influência em sua escrita graças aos portugueses 👍😎
@@pjlikesmusic Are you stupid? When did I ever say Portugal did bad things to Vietnam?
The most important power of one country in history is confirmed without any doubt, by how many people in all planet Earth speak that language nowadays. So we need to check what languages are most spoken in the world and the answer won`t be given in fake manipulated explanations, achieved thanks to paid propaganda in pop media channels or fanatic tv channels! With approximately 215 to 220 million native speakers and 50 million L2 speakers, Portuguese has approximately 270 million total speakers. It is listed as the sixth in the World and the third European in terms of native speakers.
Enjoying your animation while narrating your version of Portuguese maritime events...

Portugueses sempre a falar de falsos acontecimentos históricos no youtube

Awesome.
Tratado de Tordesilhas, did not divided the new found continent in two, but the world in two. when you make this videos, please do with the correct information. this is a major error.
The Treaty of Tordesillas divided the New World into Spanish and Portuguese spheres of influence. The treaty amended papal bulls issued by Pope Alexander VI in 1493.
This is the very detailed video on this topic. Subscribe :)
um dos meus peidos é mais forte do que Portugal fraco 👎
sadly portugal is now the poorest country in europe and the laughing stock as well 🤣
Sadly your mother never been born!
I'm afraid all western countries currently are a laughing stock mainly thanks to people like you that hate their own culture and vote in socialism!!! Hope you're enjoying your misery ;).
That's a bit of a blunt pessimistic statement to make about a country that changed so much in history. But yeah, to each its own.
Dill o Brasil também é o país mais anedota não da América ,mas do mundo. Não há quem não se ria do Bolsonaro, do país dos assassinatos das balas perdidas da polícia ,da corrupção ,da Amazônia a arder , a ser saqueada, o Brasil do povo que tem que assaltar camiões de ossos para matar a fome, dos milhões de indigentes, das mafias religiosas, da matança de índios , do turismo sexual, das violações...... Chega- te? Ou queres mais???🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😝😝😝😝😝🔥🔥🔥🤡🤡🤡🤡💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣
sadly Europe has 50 countries and Portugal is far away of being the poorest 🤣🤣
Abdul Majid was the pilot that led Gama to India .

Calicut is not on the eastern side of India.. the city you refer to is Cochin
Calicut or Kozhikode as it’s known now is in the south Western coast of India.(Malabar coast). 200 Km from cochin
Portugal finished its Reconquista earlier, yet they have twice the amount of Moorish admixture than Spaniards lol.
That’s what happens when you don’t take limpieza de sangre seriously
¡Viva España! 🇪🇸
thank you

The idea of a “reconquest” is beyond stupid
Stupid is your pedo prophet
