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
Good chance some Dutch were also right around the corner.
Dutch replaced Portuguese tourists in 1600s.
well ...i think every city or area called 'Natal' in the world means the Portuguese have been there
@@michaelhuber8581 true
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 Ottoman's forgot to turn off "fire at will" during the assault.
Lmao
hahahaaa
FUCK I just canister shot my own general, well gg I guess.
I made the same mistake when playing my Skaven campaign 😩
Empire campaign lol
Portugal is such a tiny country with limited manpower. It's amazing that they could create an overseas empire like this!
The feitorias system and a powerfull navy was cleary the key here. In the case of ship building, Portugal was ahead of on the vanguard, due to it's experience in open sea travels, before Spain and other nations of it's time.
Plundering of South America though
@@JoDoSa Very true. 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.
@@nirupamakumar3917 more like settling and developing what would become Brazil.
they had a decent manpower at their time, what happened is most of them immigrated to the colonies, the vast majority to Brazil.
Now we have a population of 200 million (with about 25% portuguese genetical heritage I d say, making it the biggest genetical mark on the country)
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.

it's a beautiful video. as a Turk, I admire Portugal and the Portuguese 🇹🇷🤝🇵🇹
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.

@@saint_matthias point and laugh at that statement.
Portugal maritime power was the most influential in India until the Dutch and British arrived.
Portugal more influence in India then in Europe, as India was ages from having the naval and gun "tech" that the Portuguese had, only with ottoman weaponry could they balance the scales, even so they used outdated tactics in siege warfare.
2 reasons why we never ventured inwards india:
- Not enough manpower
- With the naval supremacy in Indian waters we had, all we needed was to have strategic forts near the sea and bomb the army sieged those.
Any word you say of the Portuguese Navy being overrated is completely shattered when you search the war of the League. Where Portugal went total war defending against Indian and Indonesian forces with Ottoman support and still won, mostly bcz of its navy supremacy, by putting its resources and manpower where it needed and killing off the supplies of the sieging army.
and business is booming :)

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

What's funny is that Brazil wasn't important to the Portuguese until the late 17th century, when they lost the monopoly of the Spice Trade. Only after that, they focused on building up Brazil
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.

Portuguese response to Ottoman surrender demand
"Oh ho ho, so you're approaching me instead of running away."
It's funny because the response was quite harsh and sassy to the ottomans, I was hoping it would be mentioned but oh well, it might be because of the antisemitism in it
@Ahmet Sakızcı it went a little like this, also pacha was an eunuch appearently, or de Silveira took him for one, hence the answer: "Very honored Captain Pasha, I saw the words in your letter. If the knights who are here in this corral had been in Rhodes you may believe that you would not have taken it. Find out that here Portuguese people are used to killing many Moors and have Captain António da Silveira, who has a pair of tomatoes stronger than the bullets in your cannons and that all Portuguese here have tomatoes and don't fear anyone who doesn't have them!"
@Ahmet Sakızcı by the way this is only part of the response, the least offensive part
@Ahmet Sakızcı true, but this is just Silveira trying to show his men were more powerful than any army the ottomans had ever faced
@Ahmet Sakızcı in a way to make the ottomans give up on the siege
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.

In Brazil we hardly learn about Portugal amazing exploits during the Age of Discovery, save for Cabral's discovery of the Brazilian lands and sometimes Vasco da Gama's voyage. We should learn more about Portugal's rich history!
Lol then you wonder why you have such a skewed view of the country. HIstory is written by the victors. No Brazilian politician would benefit from giving brazilians information that made Portuguese look good or powerful or enterprising..
To be honest, neither we Portuguese know about most of our military prowesses. The victory of Aljubarrota is very well known here , but it's an exception. Portugal's history school program is more politically than militarily oriented
Infelizmente o fim da monarquia brasileira levou a uma tendência política que dura até hoje, ano 2021, e que sempre procurou hostilizar a herança portuguesa através de um nacionalismo muito ativo que levou a uma manipulação do ensino da história. Esta manipulação fez crescer uma completamente contra-natura aversão a Portugal.

Since 1182 AD in África ops; first global army...from Lisbon to Nagasaki. Salute

The Portuguese put their Priority on the Trading Posts and Fortresses on the High Sea.

*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.
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.
@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.
@Вхламинго still ottomans won most of their battles against venice
@@AdamNoizer Great explanation. Most peoples really thinks galleys always useless against galleons. This is really common myth.
Вхламинго
Not true. Countries with long and shallow coastlines used updated versions of galleys as late as the 18th century as far away as the Baltics.

We have a story/legend from this siege. It was said that when the part of the wall fell, 5 men jumped to fill the gap and held the line against 300-400 ottoman soldiers. 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.
Good evening. Never heard anyone implying it is just legends, it was against 500 however. Besides, their names are recorded. One of these died, although I can’t recall which one at the moment:
- Sebastiam de Sá;
- António Pessanha;
- Bento Barbosa;
- Bartolomeu Corrêa;
- Master Joam, surgeon of Diu.

The Portuguese attack of Diu in 1509 wasnt planned.
That attack occurred when the joint Mamluk-Gujarat navy attack Cochin in 1508 and killed Lourenço de Almeida, the son of Francisco de Almeida the 1st Viceroy of India.
For 3 days he mourned the death of his son, when he approach his men he said:
"He who ate the chick must also eat the rooster or pay for it".
Refusing to accept the orders of his King by giving the position of Viceroy to Afonso de Albuquerque, due to Francisco's hate for him as Afonso was responsible to intercept any Muslim fleet coming out of the Red Sea and die to the fact that Francisco wanted to personally destroy the Mamluk fleet.
Before moving his navy to Diu he wrote a letter to the captain of Diu, Malik Ayyaz:
"I the Viceroy say to you, honored Meliqueaz captain of Diu, that I go with my knights to this city of yours, to take the people who were welcomed there, who in Chaul fought my people and killed a man who was called my son, and I come with hope in God of Heaven to take revenge on them and on those who assist them, and if I don't find them I will take your city, to pay for everything, and you, for the help you have done at Chaul. This I tell you, so that you are well aware that I go, as I am now on this island of Bombay, as he will tell you the one who carries this letter."
P. S. : Don't underestimate the love of a father for his son.
@@ustanik9921 Francisco de Almeida died in 1509 or 1510 so no...
The Battle of Diu 1509 was a Portuguese counterattack of the Mamluk-Gujarat attack in Chaul in 1508.
The 2nd siege of Diu (in 1546), Diu was in Portuguese hands since 1536, the first siege was in 1538.
Gujarat, with Ottoman support, had an army of 10.000 soldiers vs the Portuguese 440 men, receiving reinforcements, near the end of the siege, of 3.000 soldiers including Indian (hindu) militias. As soon the fleet arrived they bombarded the enemy and they had to retreat.
The Portuguese always had cities like Goa and Diu bcz those cities were basically islands extremely defensable by using cannons of the ships to disperse the enemy.
Why sultan of gujrat lost ......
The reason was Bahadur shah of Gujrat was facing hardships. He went on war with mewar, malwa sultanate, Deccan sultanate ,Mughals and kept on expanding his kingdom. Bahadur shah went to deal with Potugese was assasinated and thus sultanate falling end started .Many years before Mahmud Begada defeated Portugese with the iron hand known as battle of chaul.
As Francisco de Almeida watched the city burn, he said "no torch was lit on your funeral. Today, I lit up this city for you, my son"
@@Luzitanium Agree, a movie realized by Riddley Scott on this subject would be epic.
We are getting closer to the much coveted Adal-Abysynian War 🤩🤩🤩

Really!!!! That would be awesome
What an incredible subject! Portugal has a rich history of conquests in the Orient.
El Imperio portugués sobre todo defendía factorías y puertos para efectuar la compra de especies y la trata de esclavos.
No colonizaron ni exploraron grandes territorios en sus viajes.
Excepto Brasil la costa y Angola y Mozambique capturando y comprando negros para llevar a América o venderlos a los ingleses y holandeses mayoritariamente.
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.
Fate
Thanks for your work.
As a Portuguese, it's really cool to see such quality vídeos about my country's history.
As a Portuguese I enjoy this new series! But I will cry in the last episode
Interesting. I don't believe I've ever heard much about the direct Ottoman involvement in India.
My god, that is a heroic defence. What absolute legends.
Foi graças à bravura dos Portugueses nestas Batalhas do Oceano Indico e que conseguimos derrotar os Otomanos, que impedimos o avanço dos Muçulmanos e em caso de derrota, hoje o Brasil não existiria como é, certamente as mulheres teriam de andar de rosto tapado e teriam que Rezar virados para Meca...Um Abraço de Portugal a todos os falantes da linda Língua de Camões.
Abraço para o Brasil!

Portugal is a country of heroes and warriors that could very well be a saga of movies 🇵🇹
Yeah!! Another video about Portuguese history! Thank you kings and generals for this, I know me and my fellow Portuguese always appreciate having our history told. Would love to see more about Portuguese adventures in Ethiopia!
Another great battle I'd like to see you guys cover is the siege of Cochin, that battle is one of my favorites in all of history simply because of the characters and just the drama of it all. But still thank you for this video.
Portugal exists? Nice!
As a Portuguese I felt left out until now!
já tens o teu amigo Chega!
Tenho milhares de conhecidos, meia dúzia de amigos, e nenhum deles se chama “chega”.
Que comentário estranho...
the secret of Portugal's success in the Ottoman confrontation was already having closed-back firearms. These cannons were very powerful. They fired five shots and with another kilometer longer in distance (one detail - 300 years later the Battle of Waterloo still used front loading cannons)
Portuguese in Japan, India, China, Brazil, Cape Verde, Mozambique, OMG.
And SriLanka, Indonesia, South Africa, Angola, Persian Golf, Guinea, Molucas....
and Australia, US, Canada...
When I see these kinds of videos about Portuguese history, it just strikes me as absolute lunacy, who the hell fights wars half a world away in the 16th century?? And mind you, this won't even be the last one, they were so many...
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.
They basically had to become a trade power to maintain their independence. It was a Hobbsian world of dog eat dog back then.
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.
@@knightheaven8992 I have to disagree with you. First of all yes it was pure greed. The Portuguese wanted to have a monopoly on the spice trade in the indian ocean. This would make them rich. They didn't do it to bring prosperity to Europe. They didn't do it to better the lives of western europeans, or even the typical Portuguese serf; and even if they did that doesn't make it ok. "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. They just had to fight and plunder half way across the world. They needed it to become prosperous." Give me a fucking break. They don't have a right to attack others, to gain prosperity. 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. All factions that did this, including the Portuguese, were immoral and unjust. It is not just to conquer and plunder.
@@beninwarrior4579 it is not so simple. portugal at first wanted to just trade, no war. but the muslim merchants didn't want competition. so war started. I value open markets and no protectionism. moreover, 500 years have past and who knows whose country started hostilities??
@@beninwarrior4579 ""Oh spices are so expensive for the poor europeans. They just had to go half way around the World and fight and plunder."" Dude it was inevitable that would happen. In the moment Vasco Da Gama discovered a way around to India, and beyond, that changed the game for good. It was Portugal, it could had been anyone else given the chance.
It is wrong only in the eyes of modern XXI century man eyes morals. At the time the context was different, your making a mistake of morally judging history of the people who lived in a context of a medieval world. More then half a millennia ago. Its ridiculous.
"All factions that did this, including the Portuguese, were immoral and unjust." Everyone was doing it, it was a matter of survival. Including the Indian kingdoms and so on. You fucking naive, might as well say that the medieval, and feudal world was immoral and unjust while you are at it. While ignoring its context of all this, people at the time lived trough different rules, and different morals, and different paradigm. That is the point.
What it might be seen immoral today, back then was the day to day of human societies and civilization.
And yes you are resuming this things to only greed, and that is a very narrow minded to begin with, that is all im saying.
Yes it was about prosperity, unknowingly or not, that is what happened, the global maritime trade at the time was a game changer. And obviously benefited those who could exploit it, Portugal in the beginning, for a long time, but then others as well. The others who weren't doing it, only because they couldn't yet.
This was the response letter to Pasha's letter proposing the surrender:
"I have seen the words in your letter, and that of the captain which you have imprisoned through lie and betrayal of your word, signed under your name; which you have done because you are no man, for you have no balls, you are like a lying woman and a fool. How do you intend to pact with me, if you committed betrayal and falsity right before my eyes?... Be assured that here are Portuguese accustomed to killing many moors, and they have as captain António da Silveira, who has a pair of balls stronger than the cannonballs of your basilisks, that there's no reason to fear someone who has no balls, no honor and lies..."
The BM is real
🤣🤣🤣
This was certainly, without a doubt, written by a portuguese. I wish he included the letter response in the video, because it's hilarious
If the letter don t have written "caralho, mouro filho da puta", it´s a fake...

Sorry if i made typos i AM lerning english
@@admontblanc No. Those were pirates and imitators
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.
It is fascinating. I look forward to more.
So Portugal defeated Ottam Empire. Nice!
@Naruto six path No, the portuguese Kicked the shit out of the ottomans several times, and outnumbered. Don't try to revise History.
Accept it, it's less painfull
@Naruto six path yeah man I believe that but you should see too that many ones on the Europe tried to envade Portugal always outnumbered we always kicked them out. Not to talk that Portugal had the most advanced navy tech at the time and bota fogo too which is in the assassins creed game black flag. It's amazing to. Play with that comparasing to Edward's ship
@Naruto six path Under mughal protection ahahahah you need to tell me ONLY ONE battle that the mughals helped the portuguese, lets talk about the battle of diu 1509? one of the most if not the most heavy defeat in muslim history , or maybe about ethiopian wars? where portugal sucessfuly expeled ottoman influence from it you want more? sieges of mallaca , Battle of hormuz and more and more....
Great video!
I was actually expecting the 1509 battle when I saw Diu in the title. Due to the events that led to the battle, the battle itself and the repercusions in the geopolitics of the time after the battle I believe it's a much more interesting and important one in History knowledge.
Also Afonso de Albuquerque deserves it's own video. The things he did were just wild and wicked!
A recommendation: Please don't occupy the subtitles space to show movements of battles, it can be annoying for those who don't know english as much as others.
Thanks! And long live K&G!
Miguel Quezada I use full screen in such cases it works for me the subs does not get in the way
Legend says that the ottoman commander was a eunuch and that when he wrote the letter to Captain Silveira. The Portuguese captain replied. " Most honourable commander Pacha. May you know that behind these walls there are men with balls bigger than your cannonballs and they do not fear those who don't have them".
There is also the story of a Dutch priest that says that a portuguese soldier who ran out of bullets started shooting his own teeth
He said all my men got balls and wont listen to a man without balls. Because the pasha was a eunuch. So the Pasha got angry and attacked but got his ass kicked. The Portuguese actually wanted to kick him in the balls, but kicked his ass instead coz he had none.
Yes. He was eunuch. "Hadım" is actually his nickname, which means eunuch in Turkish. His full name is Hadım Süleyman Paşa (Suleiman "Eunuch" Pasha)
@@jaif7327 No. Servant is hizmetçi/hizmetli. Hadım means eunuch. Hadım etmek means to castrate someone.
As a Gujarati thank you for not using anglicised 'Cambay'. The correct name is Khambhat.
Does anyone actually even say Cambay anymore? I've only ever heard it as Khambhat. But it feels bad when people say "Broach" instead of "Bhrigukachchha" or "Seringapatam"instead of "Srirangapatnam"
@@tentathesane8032 They do. People who are not as well informed about the vernacular or indigenous names use anglicised names. Like the Ganges instead of Ganga, etc.
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.

Outstanding content and informative as always. Thank you
Funny as I was in Diu early this year before the Great Plague ravaged our lives. Still some Portuguese influence and a fort left there.
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!!!
but you suffered crushing defeat on the battle of three kings in Marroco (Alcácer Quibir) on 1578, even your king perished
@@dianlaksmanaanindita9576 and your point is...?
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.
Thank you fot all these video's on Ottoman history! There is so much to learn about the Empire's activities that we have to learn thanks to you (rather than Turkish sources).
