In real history there are no good guys nor bad guys. Everybody is sometimes good and sometimes bad. We Portuguese did both good and bad things. One good thing was the opportunity of having Goans and othe peoples from India living in Portugal alongside us, helping us to shape the Portugal of the future, softening our culture and civilization. Without Vasco da Gama it wouldn't have happened...Was he a bastard? Maybe...
