      The Portuguese were the first Europeans to visit Ayutthaya (Siam) in the early 1500s. They brought with them some dessert recipes which are still used today, and the Thai word for "bread" is derived from Portuguese. Most notably, though, they brought with them some spicy plants from South America, called chili peppers, which caught on rather well.

      The forgotten buff in Civilization and other games.
      *Made with Goat Horn* (portuguese expression to express hardiness and stubborness. "Feito em corno de cabra") : In desperate conditions, portuguese forces grow furious and stubborn to no end. Increase all attack by 25% and all resistances and damage reduction to 50%. Morale immunity, skirmish tactics and hiding come to effect.

Although the portuguese influence was on the downward trend by mid eighteenth century and Britishers were the real rising power, had it not been for the earthquake of 1755 in Lisbon which completely destroyed the city, Portuguese would still have given the other European powers a run for their money and probably would've had significant footprint in Asia and North America.

    • @wolraadtuis8909
      @wolraadtuis8909 3 роки тому +23

      I admire them too. Years ago as a loudmouth no back-down youngster. I once helped a Portuguese guy get his old jalopy going after he stopped for me hiking on the road. We pulled away in his VW beetle and it stalled and wouldn't start. My oldman was a avid fan of VW Beetles and we owned six through the years. He was a part-time mechanic and taught me well. I just set the points and we were off. About 4 months later I was in a town away from home and picked up shit with 2 bullies but I pounded them both. Walking back to my friends house I saw them in 2 cars in a group of 8 getting out behind me and charging I laid out the first but the 2nd and 3rd bashed me too much and before the others got too close I gapped it across traffic with all these punks chasing me. Then I saw my Portuguese buddy and a friend driving by in the opposite direction with his eyes wide open looking at me. I couldnt stop because the ones chasing me were just like 7-8 m away. But my buddy turned the vw around and they came by shouting at me to get in. I jumped in and we got away but my buddy decided to turn back. As they were getting back in their cars we stopped by them, My buddy said wait here but I didnt. I got out with them and the 3 of us Pounded the CRAP out of 7 of them. 1 managed to get away with my buddy hot on his tail but he still got away. They helped me because I fixed his car with a screwdriver. We are still friends and even the guy who got away, we became friends later. He ended up marrying my sisters friend. A cute chick which I had an interest in but she had none for me. Good because I married a beautiful girl 4 years later with whom I have 4 children. She and I have till today not once argued about anything. I met her at another Portuguese friend of mine's house. She was his chick's best friend. I became an admirer of the Portuguese because many of them are upright no nonsense helpful friendly true friends and I love their history. I just love their amazing alone against the world history.

    *Fun fact:* The Ottoman’s inability to consistently maintain a large fleet of galleons in the Indian Ocean meant that Admiral Sefer Reis would often counter the larger Portuguese galleons by timing his rowed galley attacks against them so that they would be forced to sail against the wind. Thus separating one galleon from the rest of the fleet and defeating them in detail. Often his strategy would prove incredibly effective due to his ability to hug the coastline and evade the open sea.

    • @AdamNoizer
      @AdamNoizer 4 роки тому +69

      Вхламинго Whilst you are correct that the more heavily armed galleons were far more durable in open sea, the idea that galleys were no match for them at all is a common myth. Contrastingly, the tactics employed by galley captains adjusted accordingly to deal with them. The strategy of Admiral Sefer Reis in the Indian Ocean during the 16th century is a testament to this.
      Would recommend reading The Ottoman Age of Exploration by Giancarlo Casale. Specifically page 112 where he elucidates upon this further.

    • @AdamNoizer
      @AdamNoizer 4 роки тому +45

      @Вхламинго It is true that overall, large sailing ships proved more effective and durable in the long run, however Ottoman galleys definitely weren't powerless against Venetian galleons during the 16th century, and vice versa. The result of such engagements often varied depending on the amount of ships of either side, distance from the shore, wind strength and direction, and most importantly, the skill of each admiral to take advantage of these factors.

In Terms of Trade, too, he had aims to bring the spice trade to Portugal via the Mediterranean Sea and North Africa. These goals could no longer be achieved after the emergence of the Ottomans as the successor to the Mameluks. The Priority of the Turks was the Land and the Security of the Red Sea & Aden.

The narrow passage was enough for them to hold the line while being wounded, this ended up giving the rest of the men a morale boost to keep fighting. Another story tells of 2 other artillery soldiers who held part of the wall alone with their spears killing several ottoman soldiers. Fun legends we managed to pull from the writtings of that time.

    The 24 Portuguese ships that sent the Ottomans into a hasty retreat happened to be there by a happy accident. A storm had blown one Ottoman ship of course and it ended up at the port of Honnavar, where the Portuguese had a factory, and was promptly captured. After dispatching a messenger to Goa, the commander of the Portuguese fleet in Honnavar left for Diu without waiting for orders from Goa. This was the fleet the Ottomans mistook to be the main fleet from Goa.

    Great video. This is an area of history I know little about. I generally knew that the Portuguese had altered the trade routes of Asia away from the Arab world, and that it was a major reason for the long decline of the Ottoman Empire. This also caused a major shift in wealth to Europe. However, I have no idea of the people involved, the battles, and the process by which it was done.

    My ancestors were absolutely crazy mad, had to be... It's like, if those fleets and armies were damaged/destroyed they had to be replenished by sending more ships and troops from Portugal, in those days it took almost a year to send word back to Lisbon, a few months to assemble a new fleet and another year to get there, and you have to expect to lose like half the ships during the voyage, due to sinking, stopping to repairs, turned back, redirected to other places, etc, not until much later would they have some significant ship building capabilities in the area, but still, sustaining these kinds of operations... there's a saying in my country that the salt of the sea is made out of all the tears for the lost ships and sailors from those days.
    It leaves me in a difficult mix of emotions, for one side is kinda hard to not to root for my country, even knowing all the bad things they did there, for a lot of reasons, mostly greed and religion, they also did it for the adventure I guess, if you want to romanticize it, but still, it's also astonishing how such a small country even managed to pull some of these things.

      You can call it greed, but we cant be this naive, to call it just that. The monopoly of the spice trade, gave prosperity to Portugal, and Europe.
      Before that spices, silks, and other exotic wares, were extremely expensive to western Europe since they had to go trough a lot of intermediaries, and lots of predatory taxes mainly by Muslim hostile nations at the time, with the Exception of Venice. This gave rise to the predominance of a Bourgeoisie class, or a middle class of sorts, in western Europe, due to its prosperity. There was a lot at stake beyond mere greed. Its a complex issue.
      Also i fail to understand why would you feel bad for what the Portuguese did. Its what everyone was doing, and what anyone would have done given the chance. It was different times, it is ridiculous to judge it by morals today.
      If we didn't control trade, the Mamluks/ottomans would, as they did before us. I find it peculiar that we are very quick to condemn Portuguese actions ( because they are westerns), but we have nothing to say, when its the ottomans interference, or the Mughals later on who would ended up conquer most of India. Anyway different times different contexts.

"Oh spices are so expensive for the poor europeans. They just had to go half way around the World and fight and plunder." " Oh those poor europeans.

If I mug you is it ok? I mean, I need you money for my prosperity. Therefore in your eyes I am justified in mugging you. I agree that conquest was something everyone did back then. So it doesn't make sense to judge one specific group for conquering and plundering. But that doesn't mean their action were justified. They weren't justified.

    with a smaller population and less resources, they sailed longer distances and waged war on powerful Muslim empires in which the Portuguese were victorious the majority of the time. were as the Spanish, with a bigger population and more resources , sailed shorter distances and subjugated weaker Native American empires who had no resistance to European pathogens. case in point, Brazil. when confronted with more or less the same people as the Spanish, look at how tiny Portugal managed to carve out such a massive piece of real estate in South America.

    Greetings. It’s a little bit inappropriate to imply there are «some sources suggesting a group of female soldiers saw active duty» in this conflict when the same documentation offers detail regarding these women, including references to their names. There’s more that we know about these women than the presentation proposes, a few of their husbands’ names are mentioned, as well as a few of their children’s. For instance, the leader of these females was Dona Izabel de Veiga.
    My favorite among them is possibly Ana Fernandes, who, when present in one of the bastions, saw her boy fall during the skirmish. What’s lovely about this woman is she managed to keep herself, continuing the struggle, only after the end of the skirmish dropping arms for mourning and burial. Not many sons can say they had their mothers’ fighting beside them - one might joke, all in good humor, that though it’s not easy to get away from mothers, it’s even less so if they happen to be Portuguese.
    It wasn’t an isolated event however. During the siege of Mazagão in 1562 - today named El Jadida (Morocco) -, a well known Portuguese knight’s mother received a correspondence from the Queen Regent, Dona Catarina, offering her condolences for his passing. The knight’s name was Jorge Nunes de Leão, the mother’s name was Isabel de Avelar. She replied back to the Queen, while still under siege - correspondence was possible given the fortress was under attack solely from land, having its back to the sea free of any up & arms offenses. I’ll attempt translating it appropriately:
    «I have already lost 4 children in the wars in India, thus the loss of this 5th pains me even more so.
    Though I still have a 6th, and I’m raising him so he can end this siege just as honorably!»
    There’s more information about such other episodes, whole books in fact.
    Regardless, I felt it appropriate to offer a more thorough approach regarding this one.
    With my regards.

      @Alfarr Ragnarsson Good evening. You’re partly correct. The ‘Z’ is no longer used by the Portuguese in a few names, such as Sousa (Souza), Lopes (Lopez) and Dinis (Diniz), just to offer some examples, but it was until around the late 19th century, without an exact date. Sort of like Manuel is no longer spelled with an ‘O’: Manoel.
      In other Portuguese-speaking countries its usage can still be found however. It'd depend on the timeline we’re speaking of, given spelling changes within every language and its respective dialects over the centuries.
      I always find it curious, when reading older chronicles, to come across names spelled differently over the centuries. If you read English from the 16th century for instance, you’ll encounter interesting differences as well.
      In both Portuguese and Castilian - the latter being what is usually known as Spanish - Isabel/Izabel at times used to be spelled with an ‘Y’ as well, during the 15th century: Yzabel/Ysabel. The ‘Y’ is no longer used by the Portuguese whatsoever, though it was prevalent until the early 20th century.
      Best regards.

    As a Portuguese I was absolutely thrilled to watch this video!
    Though at first I thought it was going to be about the Naval Battle of Diu from 1509. Long story short, the first Portuguese viceroy of India, D. Francisco de Almeida, had his son killed in the Battle of Chaul by Gujarati forces, his body never recovered. Swearing revenge, he even disobeyed orders from King D. Manuel I himself, by imprisoning D. Afonso de Albuquerque, his apointed successor as viceroy, and leaving for Diu to descend his wrath upon the Sultan. Enraged as he was, he even sent a letter to the Sultan warning him: I am coming for your city!
    18 mixed type Portuguese ships, against some 150 or more enemy vessels; 30 dead, against some 1700 on the other side, and horrible punishments after the battle. This battle led, as described in the video, to the very end of the Egiptian Sultanate, and the unstoppable rise of the Portuguese Empire in the Indian Ocean. Diu itself would remain under Portuguese rule up until 1961.
    The Siege of Diu makes me remember of that mad bravery from my Portuguese ancestors against overwhelming odds - from 600 combatents, 40 survived, inflicting 3 thousand casualties on a 19 thousand strong army, and maintaining control of the city. That's epic, unadulterated, badassery. And that's one amongst such battles as 1385 Battle of Aljubarrota, where amidst a 5 to 1 disavantage Portuguese soldiers held our independence against French heavy cavalry and a Castillian massive hoard, or the 1562 Great Siege of _Mazagão_ , where a force of over 120 thousand strong was defeated, in which for the 117 Portuguese dead some 25 thousand enemy soldiers followed them.
    And of course, PORTUGAL, CARALHO!!!

      Portugal suffered several defeats for sure, as any other great civilization, I suppose. And you couldn't point out the worst example possible, since all three rulers engaged at _Alcácer_ _Quibir_ perished or, in the case of the Portuguese King D. Sebastião, disappeared - his body was never recovered, and the remains buried at _Mosteiro_ _dos_ _Jerónimos_ in Lisbon are a hoax promoted by Phillip II of Spain, to eliminate any hope of Portuguese independence restoration.
      So, crushing defeat, in a battle nobody even won? Hardly. Consequences of losing a king that had no offspring were disastrous, sure, but the battle itself was a mess for all parts. Last but not least, Portugal participated at the request of one of the Moroccan rulers.

    I remember a few points, the beginning of the battle of Diu came because they killed the son of a Portuguese, and the father wrote a letter to the caliphate to warn of what he intended, and the letter says..."" You killed the chicken, now you're going to eat the rooster.... I'm going to kill all your people and destroy everything, and thus make sure that everyone involved in my son's death was killed "".....

    The naval battle of Diu is easily one of the five most important battles in human history!!! Not just the history of Portugal or Europe! This battle totally changed the world, geopolitically, economically and religiously! Very radical changes! At that time, Muslims were on the verge of world domination, having almost complete control of all maritime trade in Southeast Asia and the ports of these heavily populated eastern nations. In Diu, Muslim pretensions to become a global empire, sunk forever! The Islamic world was ripped in half by the viceroy of Portugal and his daring armada. This battle opened the doors of Southeast Asia to all the great European empires. Dutch, French, Spanish, British Empire etc, later even the United States of America benefited from this great Portuguese feat. I would say that even the Russian Empire benefited! Because this Portuguese pressure in the western and eastern Mediterranean and in all the seas that stretched from Arabia to the Philippines, passing through Japan, Australia, etc., drew the attention of the Ottoman Empire to the south of the planet, leaving the Russians practically free to attack the Ottoman territories south of Moscow and expand eastward into Alaska. The most amazing thing is that the battle of Diu is almost unknown in the western world and even among many Portuguese speakers. The Portuguese generations of the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries were incredibly brave people! Great Admirals of the Christian faith!!! Great protectors of the western world!!! Great Browsers. I am from the Lima family on my mother's side, and from the Sousa family on my father's side. I am Brazilian and I have deep respect for my Portuguese ancestors.
    A batalha naval de Diu, é facilmente uma das cinco batalhas mais importantes da história humana!!! Não apenas da história de Portugal ou da Europa!
    Essa batalha mudou o mundo totalmente, no âmbito geopolítico, econômico e religioso! Mudanças muito radicais! Nessa época os mulçumanos estavam prestes a dominar o mundo, tendo o controle quase que total de todo o comércio marítimo do sudeste asiático e dos portos dessas nações orientais de população muito numerosa. Em Diu, as pretensões mulçumanas de se tornarem um império global, afundou pra sempre! O mundo islâmico foi rasgado ao meio pelo vice-rei de Portugal e sua ousada armada.
    Essa batalha abriu as portas do sudeste asiático para todos os grandes impérios europeus. Império Holandês, Francês, Espanhol, Britânico etc, posteriormente até os Estados Unidos da América se beneficiaram deste grandíssimo feito português. Diria que até o Império Russo se beneficiou! Pois essa pressão portuguesa no mediterrâneo ocidental, oriental e em todos os mares que se estendiam da Arábia até as Filipinas, passando por Japão, Austrália etc, chamou muito a atenção do Império Otomano para o sul do planeta, deixando os russos praticamente livres para atacar os territórios otomanos ao sul de Moscou e se expandirem para o leste até o Alaska.
    O mais incrível é que a batalha de Diu é quase desconhecida no mundo ocidental e até mesmo entre muitos falantes de língua portuguesa.
    As gerações portuguesas do século XV, XVI e XVII, foram pessoas incrivelmente valorosas! Grandes Almirantes da fé cristã!!! Grandes protetores do mundo ocidental!!! Grandes Navegadores.
