Henry the navigator the King of Portugal? no no no... Prince Henry the navigator. Not even the heir to the throne... not even second heir... he was the third prince.
Abulhasan Al Masudi This amazing historian and geographer was born in Baghdad (in 895 CE) and travelled to East Africa, the Middle East, Persia, Russia, China and the Indian Subcontinent. He died in Cairo in 957 CE. His famous work of world history “Meadows of Gold” has been translated into English. He produced many more books and even encyclopaedias about world history and combined cultural and social matters with politics. Al Masudi would on his travels speak to locals and use their accounts. His interest of the world would include non-Muslim lands like Scandinavia and their peoples
before the arrival of the Portuguese , the Indian ocean region was an Islamic domain for many hundreds of years. but within only a century the Portuguese empire ended it for the Muslims. all the other Europeans who came afterwards had the luxury of not having to deal with any real Muslim super powers in that region, thanks to all the dirty work the Portuguese did the century before
The king of Portugal was João I (John I). Henrique o Navegador was a the third prince, and he was not even the heir. He founded the Escola de Sagres to study all details of ocean navigation. He was one of the sons of the king and of his wife: Filipa de Lancaster, John of Gaunt (duke of Lancaster)'daughter, and great daughter of King Edward III of England
1st the Portuguese bring the commerce in Africa, the Portuguese where traders, and we brought slaves, sadly, after that Portugal started the slavery, but it wasn’t only Portugal, all the countries in Europe have done that, even before the Portuguese empire the enemy’s capture where slaves, in Europe and out of Europe, in Africa, Americans Ásia. So Portugal didn’t stared slavery.

They keep "hiding" the importance of Spain (even Portugal) in European History... since the Iberians, Romans...Celts, Vikings, Goths, Visigoths (so many Visigoths kings!!) The Jew community, the art influence , the influence of the people from the Iberian Peninsula (as the Greeks baptized it) in the Roman Empire... the opening of the path to the "New Continent" that started the History of so many new countries as USA, Canada, and the rest of all countries of this new discovered continent (new in 1492, of course, and new for the Europeans, of course too), and etc etc etc etc... It's their " revenge forever". Spain was a huge empire for too long, and the biggest rival for the rest of Europe, specifically for England, they will never forget or forgive it. They love to do like the Spaniards didn't even exist, it gives them pleasure to manipulate History to look like "they" were always the Heroes, the good guys... it's almost a sexual pleasure for them. They even made possible that today, in 2022, almost nobody in USA know where Spain is...or why so many native Americans speak Spanish (in Spain is Castilian you know) crazy right?, they know very well WHY everybody speaks English and where English came from....but "Spanish"? they think it's the original language from "Mexicans and all these brownish people", they don't even know or get that "these people" are native Americans, or mixed native Americans with some European blood. It is pretty sad...but that's what happens when the same people controls the media.

the Spanish empire got kick started mostly out of pure chance and good luck. they were very fortunate to have many things go their way in a short period of time. were as the Portuguese on the other hand, had a clear objective from the very beginning that they achieved through hard work, determination and many lost lives. it was the Portuguese, not the Spanish, who innovated almost every major technological advancement in maritime exploration almost a century before Columbus first set sail.
