In 1735, Bertrand-François Mahé de La Bourdonnais arrived as governor of the French colony of Île de France and transformed a sleepy port into a strategic naval hub. This episode explores how Labourdonnais turned Port Louis into a shipbuilding and trade centre, using enslaved labour and free artisans from India and Africa. We discuss the construction of the first stone buildings, the dredging of the harbour, and the creation of the Compagnie des Indes' supply lines. Labourdonnais' vision laid the foundation for Mauritius' role in the Indian Ocean economy. We also touch on his later dispute with Dupleix and his imprisonment in the Bastille. This story reveals how one man's ambition shaped an island's destiny. #History #FexingoHistory #Mauritius #MahédeLabourdonnais #PortLouis #ÎledeFrance #18thCentury #ColonialHistory #IndianOcean #Shipbuilding #Slavery #CompagnieDesIndes #EastAfrica #FrenchColonialEmpire #LabourHistory #UrbanPlanning #MauritianHistory #NavalHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
