Actually Portugal had a loose alliance with Tidore sultanate in their rivalry against Ternate. But since Portugal started to christianize the islands, Portugal ended up being hated by both sultanates. The vacuum was eventually filled by other colonial powers, Spain backed the Tidore sultanate against their rival Ternate, which was actually backed by the Dutch. It didn't go too well for Spain obviously, since the Dutch was the one who eventually came to dominate the East Indies. Unlike their Iberian counterpart, the Dutch actually didn't try too hard to convert the locals. That's why only Moluccas and eastern Indonesia was Christian, while the western part of the islands retain their muslim faith. The fact that there existed the strong Malacca sultanate and the Ottoman-backed Aceh Sultanate in the west also didn't help the christianisation cause. Not to mention that the Dutch VOC was mostly profit-motivated. They had no strong desire to "civilize" the colonies.

It is important to highlight 2 things in regards to the refusal of João II to accept Columbus proposal. First Portuguese sailors had actually already known about Newfoundland in modern day Canada, and upon returning from their searches for India, once they cross the cape of good hope back into the Atlantic, the winds blew their ships in the direction of South America, coming very close to Brazil. While they didn't actually landed in Brazil until 1500, seagulls were seen coming to the boats, which meant land was near. Portugal had the strong idea that there would be a land mass between them and India, and so decided to bet on the safe route around Africa.

As a Portuguese I have to congratulate you on your research. Not many people know that Portugal demanded the line between both empires to be moved, so that Brazil would be part of the Portuguese Empire. Portugal already knew about Brazil before the Treaty, but Spain didn't so they happily obliged to this demand. I would just like that people would refer to Fernão de Magalhães by his real name and not by Ferdinand Magellan. He is Portuguese and has a Portuguese name: Fernão de Magalhães

This has been a most informative video (like all of your other ones as well). I particularly like this one because I read many books about this history over the years and it inspired me to not only know more but actually set out on my own journey of exploration, coincidentally I was also born in 1951, five hundred years after Columbus in 1451. As a Dutch Australian I flew to USA and bought an old VW campervan and drove it solo to the top of Alaska and then to the bottom of South America, visiting as many sites as possible relating to your topic of The Treaty of Tordesillas. I visited many colonial forts and historical towns and cities along the way and found the architecture and the history most fascinating. I continued this journey by transporting my VW van across the Atlantic on a car carrier and travelling all over Europe. Unfortunately this journey came to an end (after three years of spectacular adventures) in Seville Spain, where I had my van parked overlooking the Guadalquivir River on the Avenida d'Oro (where the Spanish ships embarked for the New World). After wandering around the cobble stone streets of old Seville at night, enjoying the evening ambience of what this city represented, I came back to find my 'home on wheels' stolen!! I was devastated! Of course! And this action changed my life completely. So watching this video brought back lots of memories of my travels through these lands. Actually, as a result of the theft of my VW campervan I ended up marrying a Mexican and having a son to her. He is a Dutch Australian Mexican! And now I am married to a lady from the Philippines who is also part of the amazing history of the connection between the Philippines and the Spanish colonial empire. I remain connected therefore!

Australia was formerly known as New Holland. You definitely have been "out and about"! I lived in what was formerly called Van Diemens Land and I am sure you know of Abel Tasman and his adventures If the World had not been divided into two halves and "awarded" to Spain and Portugal, there would have been no Spanish Armada, and no incentive for the Dutch take up the sword! Malacca is a "pinch point" controlling the Spice trade. I once visited the Dutch East Indies graveyard in Malacca. Colonial histories are a great geopolitical jigsaw puzzle, bring understanding of consequences ---> consequences of consequences!

Great job guys, just like I remembered it in class only much better with the visuals and of course Devin!

Thank you for making a video about this

The importance of events at fifteenth and sixteen centuries are to such degree that it can be felt to modern times. Rise of Ottomans and then Hapsburgs, turning Iran from Sunni Islam to Shi'a by Safavids, rise of Mughals and their advance in India, rise and fall of Mings, the Warring state period in Japan and rise of people like Oda Nobunaga and Takeda Shingen, The civil war at Europe between Catholics and Protestants which showed itself in England more than any other nation at the time in Europe. And then discovery of America which later created the infamous Atlantic slave trade and started the age of colonization.

@@manuellopes6913 Think it this way. After James IV of Scotland became king of England and Ireland (and took the new name James I 😂), many new protestants in England in protest to his coronation due to him being related to Catholic monarchs, left their land for the new world which is known today as British colonisation of America and is a turning point in human history (personally I believe this is one of the main reason different governments in United States and United Kingdom or Great Britain had close relationship through 19th and 20th century despite the wars they waged against each other, as the core of the elite people in both military and political domain in USA had British ancestry).

Just to add a bit, early in the video it is mentioned that Portugal claimed Columbus' discoveries based on "earlier treaties". This would be the Treaty of Alcáçovas, which, among other things, gave Portugal a complete monopoly on lands South of the Canary Islands (so it was predecessor of the kind of Tordesillas-like division, except with a line based on Latitude rather than Longitude). The treaty was a result of a war between Spain and Portugal a couple of decades earlier in which the Portuguese navy won a decisive victory over the Spanish in the Gulf of Guinea.

Thank you, I was expecting someone to say this. Also expected to see the limit you mention as Cape Bojador. After Alcá¢ovas then it's normal that the Pope sanctions what is an expansion that is going to happen anyway, and the 2 actors at the moment and the ones which had the advantage in the «Race for the Indias» were Castile-Aragon and Portugal. Then it's simple to understand how it happened, and if «patriotisms» feel concerned that the world was divided by the «evil» Pope for two countries only and ignoring the rest of «legitime share» for others (France, England, Sweden, whatever) that this Treaty was a temporal solution, as the previous were, just setting the rule for as long as it could hold, and so they can put to rest any grugde or concern about this historical situation. IMO ☺ Well, it's late and I'm rambling ...

“Isabella was clear, too, that these new lands belonged to her and Castile alone, rather than to her husband’s Aragonese kingdoms. ‘The discovery and conquest was paid for by these kingdoms of mine and their people,’ she wrote at the end of her life. ‘And that is why the profit from them is something to be dealt with and negotiated in my kingdoms of Castile and León and why everything that comes from them must be brought here, both from the lands that have been discovered so far and from those to be discovered in the future.’” -Giles Tremlett Most people cannot comprehend that Isabella of Castile is more important and instead depict Ferdinand of Aragon when discussing 15th century Spain. Castile was thrice larger and five times more populous than Aragon or Portugal. Simply put, Isabella and her kingdom dominated Iberian politics. Portugal was superior at sea, but in land it did not dare to go against neighboring Castile. Aragon’s interests lay in southern Italy, but even then it was Castilian troops that secured those lands for Ferdinand.

@WillyWeiss-HH

3 жыл бұрын

Where I come from, Ferdinand is barely mentioned in comparison with Isabel la Católica, even though he was of outmost significance for the empire's future, even before Charles the 1st (5th of the Holly ROman Empire), since he provided the importance of kingdoms and duchies such as Cataonia, Valencia, areas in the south of France and northern Italy. Isabel would have never achieved what she did alone, she would probably not have been even queen- Castille was torn in internal wars and conflicts, entirely, and Isabel was not the natural heiress to the crown, there was her brother (the late King)'s daughter , Juana, who at first had the loyalty of most Castilians. Both Isabelle and Ferdinand were Trastamara, so it doesn't really matter, but Aragon was highly important because of the territories it covered, without it there wouldn't have been a Spanish empire and Spain wouldn't have existet as it does today. But still you just hear about Isabel la Católica, many children here don't even know the name of "her husband". Feminism for idiots. Your analysis is completely incorrect. PD some of the people who financed Columbus were Aragon Jews.

Great Video! However It would be cool if people made a video of the actual beggining of the great navegations, following Portugal during the 15th century. Its quite irritating to see people skipping to Columbus and Magalhães. Its is like talking about the space race and going strait to the Apollo missions.

I know it's a fringe theory, but the weird stuff Colombus did in the voyage back to Spain could be explained by a theory that gained steam here in Portugal in recent years, that Columbus was actually a Portuguese agent, sent to get Spain on a wild diversion, away from the "around Africa" route Portugal was exploring, and he was actually reporting on his mission to his real master. I know, wild theory, but there is a significant pile of (circumstantial) evidence that he was not Italy, but someone of, if not Portuguese, otherwise peninsular origin. I particularly like the theory that Columbus is a fake name, and his real name is that of a noble, born in a little Portuguese town called... Cuba.
