Portuguese relations have brought about changes in our economic and cultural spheres

Explanation:

• The Portuguese were the very first Europeans to come by sea to India, securing a monopoly on maritime trade between Asia and Europe for a century before the English, the French, & the Dutch in the region arrived.
• The commercial interests of the Portuguese were motivated by the possibility of producing and purchasing several valuable goods at cheap prices. Sugar, captives and exotic skin and spices are among these. There was also a desire to locate new gold reserves. The arrival at the coast of Malabar in 1498 Vasco da Gama opened a new age for relations between Europe and Asia in South India.
• The "discovery" of the maritime road to India by Vasco da Gama inaugurated an era of colonization that brought about radical economic , cultural & political shifts in most of Asia.
• The Portuguese started to develop their commercial, political and cultural activities from Goa, the first archdiocese established in Asia in the contemporary times
• The Portuguese had introduced new agricultural methods in India, opened up new industries, created new customs, taught a new religion, supported an intermarriage policy amongst themselves & the indigenous people. Each of these spheres of Portuguese activity  are still manifesting today in India.
• India has incorporated the Portuguese culture by means of its names, societies, churches, languages and way of life  automatically by way of the history's evolutionary nature. The Portuguese visited Bengal for a short time in the sixteenth century. It was an important period in the political , social, religious , and economic histories of Bengal, in many respects.
• The Portuguese were the first to establish Christianity in Bengal and in all the settlements the missionaries of various orders were involved. The most prominent and lasting memorials of Portuguese presence are now Christian churches & settlements in Bengal.

There are many Portuguese words, related to business, or to the christian religion or names of common uses articles imported from Europe, in present Indian languages.
