Your post on this thread was likely not aimed to be a precise history lesson.

Okay, Paulo, Goa was conquered. So were Hyderabad, Travancore and a
good chunk of modern India. What do we do about it now? Do you
"unbrainwashed Goans" have any idea to remedy the situation? If not,

BC, You should shift to, at least, the AD era! Do you belong to the

the great Goan tradition of treating People Not Like Us with contempt

Goans for the past 46 years have been given to believe that 19 of Dec is the
'Liberation' Day of Goa. In 1510 Afonso de Albuquerque on the behest of my
cousins Timoja and Poi Liberated Goa from the Mouros.

What is there to be unmasked? Bernado is an Indian who prefers living and
