Of late I have seen many rancourous exchanges on how good Portugal is. Goa's colonization by Portugal is now a matter for the History books and cannot be changed.
I was just wondering whether or not Portugal really did a whole lot for all of its
colonies. I had read that Angola and Mozambique were resourcefully richer
than Goa. Except for Goa and Macau, most other major Portuguese colonies
have hardly progressed.
Perhaps Goa and Macau were the only two, that progressed as they had
fairly advanced civilizations that were older than the occupying power itself.
Some history buff can perhaps dwell into this issue.
