In 1505, a Portuguese fleet under Lourenço de Almeida was blown off course and stumbled upon the island of Ceylon, modern-day Sri Lanka. This episode explores how Portugal's Estado da Índia moved from accidental discovery to a brutal war of conquest for cinnamon monopolies. We follow the campaigns of Dom Jerónimo de Azevedo, the Kotte kingdom's Rajasinha I's guerrilla resistance, the rise of the Portuguese fort at Colombo, and the eventual transition of power to the Dutch in 1656. The story is one of shifting alliances, scorched-earth tactics, and the high price of controlling the world's most valuable spice. #Ceylon #SriLanka #PortugueseEmpire #SpiceTrade #Cinnamon #LourençodeAlmeida #RajasinhaI #KotteKingdom #ColomboFort #EstadoDaÍndia #DomJerónimodeAzevedo #Sinhalese #KandyanKingdom #DutchEastIndiaCompany #ColonialWar #SpiceMonopoly #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
