Kolonialisme Portugis di Indonesia

Summary

The video details the Portuguese presence in the Indonesian archipelago, focusing on their arrival in Malacca in 1511 under Alfonso de Albuquerque. Following their conquest of Malacca, the Portuguese expanded their maritime trade influence across Southeast Asia, including strategic alliances with the Hindu Pajajaran Kingdom. However, the rise of the Muslim Demak Sultanate led to conflict, with Demak expelling the Portuguese from Sunda Kelapa in 1527. Despite this setback, the Portuguese established new footholds in the Spice Islands, particularly Ternate, where they were eventually defeated by Sultan Baabullah in 1575 and later supplanted by the Dutch in 1599.
