Portugal is like a tourist who goes everywhere. No matter whose history you research. If they existed in the 1500s you can bet portugal was there

[Zantides]

The Ottoman's forgot to turn off "fire at will" during the assault.

[ZergleJerk]

The Portuguese always seem to amaze me the more I learn. They're basically the underdogs every time and still win like, half the time.

I am of Tamil-Portuguese Ancestry. My ancestors fought the Battle of Diu alongside our Portuguese allies. We are a sea faring people and settled predominantly today around the coasts of Tamil Nadu & Sri Lanka.

The time when Spices were the Oil of their century...

[schoolofgrowthhacking]

Portugal is such a tiny country with limited manpower. It's amazing that they could create an overseas empire like this!

[CivilWarWeekByWeek]

So Portugal fought the Ottomans in India. Colonial wars are fun!

Grandes portugueses, fizeram de um país minúsculo, um império espalhado por todo o planeta, graças ao dom da navegação .
Um abraço do Brasil.

I'm Brazilian, very connected to the Portuguese, and I have to admit that the Portuguese were very brave to fight with ottoman empire at its peak. Many respects for my irmãos. ✝️🇵🇹

[al-muwaffaq]

Nothing is stopping the Portuguese from their spices, not even the Ottomans

[oyku]

[ralphmachado]

I live in India in a town named VASAI ( called BASSIEN by the Portugese), my town was also captured by the Portuguese Admiral Nuno Da cuna and we also have Portuguese era Forts and churches in my town. Portuguese ruled in my town for 250 Years until the Marathas liberated it in 18th century.

"Im in the empire business"
- Portugal

[kaliltannuri]

As a Brazilian, everything that I learned in school about the Portuguese Empire was related to Brazil only. It is funny to know that at the same time, they were fighting countless battles and colonizing places all around the world

[NapoleonBonaparde]

I love how the Portuguese casually had 400 ships in India in 1538 lol

Really, what impresses me most is that only 40 men remained able to fight in Diu at the end, yet the Portuguese managed to trick the numerically superior Ottomans to abandon the siege altogether. De Silviera was truly a master of warfare by deceit.

VIVA PORTUGAL 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
I'm proud that we share the Iberian Peninsula with the Portuguese

Saludos de España🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦
