Concerning comments about the Castillian and Frankish Kingdoms in the fifteenth century: in fact, Portuguese King, D. Manuel I and thus the Portuguese Kingdom, were THE richest man and richest Kingdom of Europe.

[@yashsandhu8366]

The Muslim texts mentioned as sources come across as outright racist i.e describing other people as filth ,dogs etc . & Secondly same old jihadi mindset !

[@andrefjbernardo]

Seb Parry he was rescued to India by An Indian Trader from an island. Check Vasco Da Gama's diary. History should be rewritten.

[@dedemelo781]

...if it wasn't the brave portuguese sailors followed afterwards by the britisch navy , India was until today ruled by persians and turcs or rumes ...for this fact the action of the honorable man of war D.Afonso de Albuquerque cannot be forgotten !!!.....

[@harir3628]

Really he comes to India with its 300 million people and well developed civilization with Sanskrit et all and says he discovered India. For whom himself? It is like to come to America and say wow I discovered it. dumb statement Seb. I hope it was a joke or you would be one.
