A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode of The Spice Trade, Lucas and Luna explore how pepper—the most common of spices—became the engine that drove Portuguese expansion into the Indian Ocean. They follow the story of Afonso de Albuquerque, the Portuguese governor who seized Goa, Malacca, and Hormuz in the early 1500s to control the pepper routes. They discuss the cartaz system, a pass required for all ships trading in Indian waters, and how Portugal used naval force to extort protection money from local merchants. The episode also covers the resistance of the Zamorin of Calicut, the role of the Gujarati merchants, and the eventual decline of Portuguese dominance as the Dutch and English arrived. Specific figures include Albuquerque, the Zamorin Manavikraman, and the Gujarati trader Malik Gopi. The conversation touches on the economic logic of pepper as a high-value, low-bulk commodity and the brutal tactics used to maintain a monopoly.
