Portuguese support when fighting the Muslims at Adal. INDIAN OCEAN STATES – Portuguese captured the
Indian port of Goa in 1510, Malacca in 1511, and set up a trading post in Macao in Southern China in 1557. Never gained complete control of the Indian Ocean but did
dominate it enough to control it and break the Italian monopoly on PEPPER.
