A very interesting YT video on the intrigues and circumstances involved in the Portuguese conquest of Malacca.
Very interesting to Goans who have fleetingly come across the Malacca Straits name in Portuguese history, St Francis Xavier’s travels and the string of jewels that decorated the Empire of old that included Goa, Hormuz, Aden and their African territories. https://youtu.be/dtrSqo0Giqg?si=4I9Fl1cI2wYrdfKp Roland Toronto.
