Vasco da Gama. Portuguese ships had unmatched powerful
cannons allowing them to gain control of the Indian Ocean and spice trade.
Afonso de Albuquerque was able to gain favor with portions of Southern India.
Goa: major military and commercial base for Portugal off the coast of India.
Port Malacca: outpost in the East Indies.Outposts: distant areas under Portuguese
control.

Spain Seizes the Philippines
Foothold in the Philippines: Filipinos were not united making it easier for Spain to gain control.
Spanish shipped silver mined in Mexico and Peru across the Pacific to the Philippines. They used the silver to buy goods in China. Large quantities of American silver flowed into the economies of East Asian nations.

Mughal India and European Traders
Mughals: largest, richest, most powerful kingdom in Europe.
Mughals allowed Dutch, Portuguese, French, and British traders to set up coastal ports, warehouses in Indian coastal towns.
Religious conflict between Hindu and Muslim princes rekindled and civil war depleted resources.
British and French established allegiances and organized company’s of sepoys: Indian troops.
Power-Shift: the infighting, corruption, and conflict lead to British and Frances power. Britain and France then begin engaging in conflict and competition.
