1 jan 1500 ano - Portuguese seized an Arab merchant ship from Jeddah
Descrição:
in 1500 the Portuguese seized an Arab merchant ship from Jeddah, which was carrying a cargo of spices, and sent this cargo to Calcutta, claiming that the cargo rightfully belongs to them, since the ruler of Calcutta gave them priority in the spice market. This incident resulted in a real battle between the Arab merchants and the Portuguese, during which dozens of Portuguese were killed. In response, the Portuguese burned Arab merchant ships and bombarded Calcutta.
