Why did the world let India annex Goa? (Short Animated Documentary)
In 1961 the Indian army marched into Portuguese Goa and after two days of fighting formally annexed it into the country. Given that the world largely believed that conquering foreign lands hadn't been cool since the end of the WW2 why was it allowed to stand? Why did the world let India annex Goa? To find out why watch this short and simple animated history documentary.

"The children born before 1961 (including my dad) were never given an indian passport," I guess this is only becuase they were holding Portugese passports. As per Indian law, you cannot have dual citizenship. So people refused to surrender Portugese citizenship were denied Indian passports. Thats all.

Many people from Goa wrongly think that the Portuguese weren't as cruel to Indians as the British were. Portugal occupied Indian territory 2 centuries before Britain did and carried out a horrific program called "the Goa Inquisition" for centuries. But by the 1900s, the Portuguese realized that they had very little control over the people of Goa because the rest of the country was strongly revolting against British rule and the Portuguese knew that they would face the same in Goa if they tried to assert their control over the people.

I'd disagree. I'm from vasai, also a Portuguese colony with Goa in Mumbai. I've heard from my grandparents, who know it from theirs, that Portuguese were the people who actually helped us. Yes they converted because they thought it was the right religion for the people. But it wasn't forced here, my family was a Hindu at first but most of vasai was converted voluntarily. After the Portuguese were driven out till late 1960s, a certain descendant of Shivaji came here and looted. Well, it was always like this but the Portuguese were helping us. The Marathi king had sent his men over here who looted from us our own lands and made us work in those fields just for us to pay taxes on the crops grown and what not. I'm not making any of this up nor I want to spread hate, just saying what I heard from my grandparents who were actually alive at the time.
It's a rare episode that ends like this with "and then everybody got over it and went on with their lives." Edit: LOKI'S DARTS, I'VE NEVER GOTTEN THIS MANY LIKES BEFORE

I am from Goa. Goa was a colonized territory and was under the oppression of the Portuguese. There were several revolts within Goa which were later supported by people from all over India. Goa had been part of the Indian subcontinent and hence Indian govt liberated Goa. Later the Portuguese sent Army back to Goa to recapture it, but our good friend Egypt closed the Suez canal and blocked their entry into the eastern oceans

I'm Goan and my grandfather was a freedom fighter who fought for Goa liberation so that it could join India. The brutalities and disgusting stories of conversions has left deep impact on the people. Infact the indo-portugal relations were sour until few years ago which was because of the fact the Portugal considered Goa to be their own territory. The forced conversions and looting led to a dark phase in Goan history. To give a historical background, Goa was majorly populated my Hindus. When the Portugese destruction was beyond humanity, the Hindus took their idols of lords and moved to Mangalore(city in neighbouring state)to protect themselves from forced conversions and in the process they left everything else behind. The Portuguese imposed heavy taxes and made their own people flee away. My cousin once told me that one day there were 100+ conversions done overnight where the newly wed Hindu grooms were killed and their brides were forced to remarry a catholic. Goa has always been a part of India even before British, Dutch and the Portugese invasion. It was just a matter of time and anger of goans that It would be reunited with India again. Edit: To this day, 19 December is celebrated every year as 'Goa Liberation Day'.

During the internment of the Portuguese prisoners of war at various camps around Goa, the prisoners were visited by large numbers of Goans-described by Captain Azeredo as "Goan friends, acquaintances, or simply anonymous persons"-who offered the internees cigarettes, biscuits, tea, medicines and money. This surprised the Indian military authorities, who first limited the visits to twice a week, and then only to representatives of the Red Cross.

Apparently they had blood relations. The one bad aspect of imperial colonisation.
Goa is one of the reasons Argentina was sure the international community would force the UK to the negotiation table over the Falklands.
Worth noting that the response to the invasion of Goa is one of the things that leads to the Falkkands war, because the Argentinian government sees this as evidence that governments would not intervene in situations like this. Of course, the situations were very different. Britain had a large, navy, Argentina was a much weaker country than India, and it was clear to everyone from the start that the population wanted to be British, but Argentina did not realize how serious these differences were until it was too late.

Also Because Portugal conducted genocides in Goa slaughtered Hindus destroyed temples, Raped and tortured women for centuries just because they were Hindus. Portuguese Christian missionaries and their evil Saint Xavier introduced this concept. Read about the famous goa inquisition holocaust It's horrific and the worst part is europeans knew about it...they let it happen.
The reason why NATO didn't respond, btw, isn't just that no one cared, the members are obliged to defend each other to the death regardless of how much they care or not. It was because NATO only applies to member's territories in Europe and North Atlantic and *nowhere else*, so attacking French posessions in the Pacfic, for example, wouldn't trigger NATO Article 5 even today. The one exception to that was French Algeria which was specifically covered by NATO as NATO was drawn up when Algeria was part of France but that's all null and void now since Algerian independence.

I read somewhere that the territories need to be above the Ecuatorial Line for the treaty to take effect. For example in 1982 when the Argentines invaded the Falklands which were a core British territory the treaty couldn't take effect since it happened below the Ecuator, but when 9/11 happened the treaty took effect cuz NYC is above the Ecautor. Another little tidbit is that if Hawaii is struck by a foreign attack NATO Article 5 doesn't take effect cuz when the alliance was formed in 1949 Hawaii was a U.S. territory and below the Ecuator. EDIT:It appears I have made a mistake. For a country or territory of a member country to be under coverage of NATO article 5 they must be located in Europe and North America and above the Tropic of Cancer.

Nay, NATO sit that out because ... NATO was entirely anti-Soviet no matter what its written on the paper. India was a non-aligned nation, that was game they played so neither block wanted to throw then into the other arms (as Pakistan found out ). Decolonization was still never much in the agenda and it would been very unpopular to aid Portugal to keep a overseas territory that as far people saw it was India (funny enough the current PM of Portugal grandfather is Goan). If India was under the Soviet sphere you can bet NATO response would be different but at it stood what it seem politically as India reclaiming their lands from a colonial power and Portugal being under the Estado Novo dictatorship didnt exactly help, that why the Colonial War was a bit different as NATO looked the other way because of Soviet backed independent movements even if there were western backed.

My mom's former father-in-law was deployed to Goa, he ended up spending some half-a-year in an Indian prison. He made it out of there pretty unscathed, and even brought some curry recipes back to Portugal, so no hard feelings. Also interesting to note that Brazil heavily condemned India's actions in an act of "Lusophone solidarity", but then proceeded to back the rebels in Portugal's African colonies under the same logic. Edit: People seem to think that I am Portugal's spokesperson for some reason. When I say "no hard feelings" I am speaking about how my family doesn't have any resentment towards India due to his imprisonment, I am not implying the Portuguese nation was "wronged" by India or something.

India still wanted to go diplomatically on the Goa topic, until the Portugese opened fire on an Indian Boat and a fisherman died because of that. After that India took the initiative of the Annexation.

You missed the fact that India didn’t just simply randomly decided to use military force. India being India was using negotiations and diplomacy all the way until an Indian fishing boat/trawler was attacked/shot at by the Portuguese in Goa and Indian fishermen died.

@@chevyjd2007 Back then, seemingly no matter what, you just didn't kill heads of state. That's partly, I think, due to the fact that everyone in power knew that one disastrous war would be all it took for THEM to go to the chopping block so it was best just to settle everything with a nice cozy exile. Just in case. Also, part of the reason the Coalitions formed was because the French killed Louis XVI so there was a bit of a public image to uphold. Although nations usually don't care too much about being proven hypocrites this plus the other reason I gave probably tipped the scales. Finally, after his second defeat he was pretty much done in French politics, so even if he somehow came back, which since they put him much farther away wasn't going to happen, he wouldn't be able to rally enough support to threaten the status quo again.

That video was pretty quick.. 10 yrs of history explained in a breeze
Early history In the 3rd century BC, Goa was part of the Maurya Empire, ruled by the Buddhist emperor, Ashoka of Magadha. Buddhist monks laid the foundation of Buddhism in Goa. Between the 2nd century BC and the 6th century AD, Goa was ruled by the Bhojas of Goa. Chutus of Karwar also ruled some parts as feudatories of the Satavahanas of Kolhapur (2nd century BC to the 2nd century AD), Western Kshatrapas (around 150 AD), the Abhiras of Western Maharashtra, Bhojas of the Yadav clans of Gujarat, and the Konkan Mauryas as feudatories of the Kalachuris.[21] The rule later passed to the Chalukyas of Badami, who controlled it between 578 and 753, and later the Rashtrakutas of Malkhed from 753 to 963. From 765 to 1015, the Southern Silharas of Konkan ruled Goa as the feudatories of the Chalukyas and the Rashtrakutas.[22] Over the next few centuries, Goa was successively ruled by the Kadambas as the feudatories of the Chalukyas of Kalyani. They patronised Jainism in Goa.[23] In 1312, Goa came under the governance of the Delhi Sultanate. The kingdom's grip on the region was weak, and by 1370 it was forced to surrender it to Harihara I of the Vijayanagara Empire. The Vijayanagara monarchs held on to the territory until 1469 when it was appropriated by the Bahmani sultans of Gulbarga. After that dynasty crumbled, the area fell into the hands of the Adil Shahis of Bijapur, who established as their auxiliary capital the city known under the Portuguese as Velha Goa (or Old Goa).

The Indian (Maharashtra) government tried to change the name of Vasco Da Gama city in Goa after Sambhaji Nagar ( First son of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj whose demise led to the fall of Maratha Empire paving way to eventual rise of British Raj in India ) after portuguese were gone. But they backed from their decision inorder to respect Portuguese Integrity and Goa’s founding father The Great Vasco Da Gama. Given Vasco was the then prime city of goa (Portuguese Military Base was here because of British presence in the sub-continent) it still remains one of the few big colonial cities that still resides its name. French colony Pondicherry changed to Puducherry, Bombay to Mumbai, Calcutta to Kolkata, Madras to Chennai, Trivendram to Thiruvananthapuram, Bangalore to Bengaluru, cochin to Kochi, Vizag to Visakhapatnam, exception being Delhi ( slightly changed to New Delhi ) as a mark of respect to the British Monarchy. As Delhi was officially made the capital of India in 1911 in Delhi Durbaar that takes place every time a new king or Queen’s succession to the throne and proclaimation as Emperor or Empress of India with 1911 Imperial Delhi Durbaar being the grandest, richest, widely known event but also the last one . The next 1936 durbaar was screwed up with Edward Vlll abdicating and eventual succession of George Vl postponed the event and usually Delhi Durbaar happens after the official coronation in London. With Germany announcing world war ll in 1939 and eventually disasters unfolding every minute The Empire was busy fighting in Europe with Germany, with Japan in Asia, with African colonies revolting and fighting British and French with German Colonies. Also Indians leaders promised British leaders that they would not bring up the Independence struggle untill the war ended. We literally waited for independence in britain’s hour of need and even sending our sikh regiment soldiers to France defending the empire ( Battle of Dunkirk ) British and French soldiers escaped many with every Indian soldiers already dead defending at Netherlands and Belgium in 1940. Fought battle of Kohima against Japanese in 1942. With war ending in 1945 and we busy drawing India-Pakistan border which is again a whole bloodbath in itself. And ofcourse the great churchill in britain is a great villain in India sololy responsible for Bengal Famine. We still only respect the late Queen Elizabeth ll & Margaret Thatcher ( because of their role in not giving the British Royal Navy orders to launch any military operation against India in 1971, they indeed send their warship into Arabian Ocean not to restrict India but in solidarity to USA, because they lost their world power status to USA in 1956 Egypt’s Suez Crisis and now is the biggest ally ). So for the world and the British Empire, India indeed the Jewel of the Empire for its Sacrifices and Struggles just not its Resources and Diamonds. Again Goa much needed to be INVADED in 1961 because USA busy at “1961 cuba crisis Bay of Pigs” and its republican government got defeated by democrats and democrats are always favored India ) . We don’t want to fight Portuguese in the long run alongside Pakistan ( by now the Israeli intelligence Mossad already warned India about China’s war plans for 1962. RAW only started in 1968 ) after all the circus. Much Love to Lisbon and wisdom to World from Incredible India ❤

Goa was not invaded it was liberated as the local population was already protesting against the colonial suppression and when the Indians army was about to enter Goa PM António de Oliveira Salazar asked Manuel António Vassalo e Silva (Portuguese general in Goa) to burn down everything so India has a hollow victory but Silva loved Goa and decided to not follow orders he was court marshall and sent into exile on his return to Portugal. (Edited: I do not wish to engage in comment wars with anyone be it nationalistic my statement is simple the title Annexation is wrong Goa is a part of land mass that's called Indian subcontinent and a country that is half world away has no right to control/ govern/ colonize it, assimilate sure but calling it their territory no.

The Portuguese idea of "Pluricontinentalism" definitely was a strange one. It was an attempt by the Estado Novo regime to incorporate its overseas colonies like Angola, Mozambique, Macau, Goa, and even East Timor as "essential" parts of the nation of Portugal. This idea mostly died off with the Carnation Revolution of 1975.

@@heyabowa1871 Well, it is weird if you consider that Portugal was an colonial empire with a rather small population. And it was a far-right dictatorship. So you had all power centralised in the capital of a small country that ruled over colonies around the globe. It is far from treating all citizens equally when all the political decisions are made by a small group of people in Europe. The people in the colonies had no say in what their future would be. French Algeria was similar in that the French empire tried to forcefully assimilate the country. That’s also a huge difference if you compare it to French-Guyana. If the people in an overseas territory overwhelmingly demand to decide their own fate it would simply be subjugation. Where that’s not the case making everyone citizens is actually a step towards equality. Don’t get me wrong: I think that nowadays in most cases solutions based on compromises and autonomy are better. But when looking at that time period we’re talking about the age of decolonisation.

I think this is one of the reasons why nobody wanted to react to the invasion. Everyone knew that Goa actually belonged to India, even though they might not have admitted it for diplomatic reasons. It's similar to the international lack of support for Rhodesia when it declared independence from Britain. Most People in Europe realised that the age of colonialism was over that it was wrong to keep the land taken from the natives.

@@user-uy2dp1dh4h good question. First, nato intervened in Afghanistan as a direct result of the September 11th terrorist attacks. North America is covered under the treaty.

@@user-uy2dp1dh4h No one breaks the rules. In fact a lot of the world seems to think actions by states who happen to be members of NATO are NATO actions. They are not. The only time article 5 was invoked is after the terrorist attack on the US on Sep 11. That led to the invasion of Afghanistan and the follow up UN-endorsed mission to establish a stable democratic state in Afghanistan. (As an aside for the particular case of GOA, NATO article 5 is worded in a way that excludes colonial territories because most of the alliance was not interested in defending colonialism which was a dying remnant of the 19th century). The first Iraq War to expel Iraq from Kuwait was widely supported and included demands by the UN for Iraq to withdraw. Again, nothing to do with NATO although many NATO member states were involved. The second Iraq War also had nothing to do with NATO and this time the majority of NATO countries opposed it. This led to politics in the US which talked about the "new Europe" and the "old Europe" -- the old meaning NATO members opposed to the war and the new meaning countries (following the collapse of the USSR) seeking to join NATO for protection from Russia which the US tried to portray as the future of Europe. The new were oft motivated by proving their readiness for membership.

"Stay Gone." New phrase to convey to all exes.
Under Article 6 of the North Atlantic Treaty, Article 5 can only be invoked over attacks in Europe, North America, Turkey, or Atlantic islands north of the Tropic of Cancer. Goa is none of those, so NATO had no obligation to respond. Interestingly, the US has interpreted that as meaning that Hawaii isn't covered (this interpretation was stated in 1965, after the invasion of Goa).

Finished reading Roger Crowley's 'Conquerors: How Portugal Forged the First Global Empire' last night. It covers Afonso de Albuquerque's conquest of Goa in the early 16th century. Today I saw this video posted about the loss of Goa for Portugal. Funnily enough Albuquerque did say he wanted to build a fort on Goa to protect the island to the end of days. If they had greater knowledge of astrophysics in the Renaissance perhaps he would've said 'heat death of the Universe'.

It’s not annexation, when you retake what is yours. Or in this scenario recapture what’s yours.
Short but fairly accurate video. However, you did not add the civilian movements outside and inside Goa that finally culminated in the military intervention. Tridib Chaudhury of the RSP political party in India was a stalwart in the movement. He was several times beaten up by Goan police force under the Portuguese control. Communist Party of India, other left wing political parties, Indian National Congress and RSS volunteers entered Goa and essentially confined the Portuguese forces to their barracks or police stations.

Portugal should have learnt from French, who gave Pondicherry to India, gracefully. Although, i wonder, what would have happened if French didn't cooperate and India invaded Pondicherry. Would the response of Nato be same as in Portugal case or French and Portugal coalition would attack India? Even the timeline is similar. India gained Pondicherry in 1961(1955 French had agreed to hand it to India, delay was due to ratification by French Parliament)and Goa also in 1961.
