Damn, the Netherlands did that!

Most of the Dutch empire was build upon the remains of the Portuguese one.

what would you buy if you were super rich in those days?

Make more money, ask painter to paint you, buy a house in the center of amsterdam near a canal and expensive clothing
that kind of stuff

Then I'm sorry for you,because we only had tradeposts in east asia.You still didn't get a foothold in china like we had with Macau and in India like Goa and you never converted people into your religion

Yeah because you eventually lost it to the british like the fucking pussies you are while we still had goa and diu

>you never converted people into your religion
That wasn't our goal, we were very accepting of other religions, which is why people like Spinoza's family fled to the Netherlands before he was born

And when you were cucked of everything in west India except Goa?

We still influenced their cuisine and language and culture more

Influencing uncivilised peoples is easy.
The Dutch influenced the whole world with the VOC and capitalism

The things is that your influences benefited the world more than you,the British tookover your business and colonial model and perfected it,the glorious revolution was the worst thing the dutch could have done.

what about east india company run by brits

The height of the portuguese empire came in the XVIII century when we had huge amounts of brazillian gold coming to our coffers every year.The problem with gold is that it increases inflation

I am British.
The Portuguese deserve fair dues for the age of discovery too though

it was a ponzi scheme based on absolutely nothing

My point was that a lot of Dutch tradeposts were formerly Portuguese since the Republic didn’t dare to attack Britain, France or Spain and instead focused on the one country smaller than them.
In turn the bigger countries canibalized us afterwards

That is true.We wouldn't have been at war anyway if we weren't in the iberian union.
Maybe we would have helped you get spanish colonies

More gold in circulation means the gold worth decreases dumb criminal

What exactly is this map supposed to show because it certainly isn't an accurate depiction of the Portugese 'Empire'.
