Portugal / India: Afonso de Albuquerque, Duke of Goa ( c. 145316 December 1515) (also spelled Aphonso or Alfonso), Portuguese general, statesman, and empire builder. After 1545, National Museum of Ancient Art, Lisbon
Afonso de Albuquerque (14531515) was a Portuguese admiral whose military and administrative accomplishments as second governor of Portuguese India established the Portuguese colonial empire in the Indian Ocean. He is generally considered a military genius.
Albuquerque attempted to close all Indian Ocean naval routes to the Atlantic, Red Sea, Persian Gulf, and to the Pacific, and was responsible for building numerous fortresses to defend key strategic positions and establishing a net of diplomatic relations.
Shortly before his death he was awarded viceroy and 'Duke of Goa' by king Manuel I of Portugal, becoming the first Portuguese duke not from the royal family, and the first Portuguese title landed overseas. He was known as The Terrible, The Great, The Caesar of the East, Lion of the Seas and The Portuguese Mars.
There is no doubting Albuquerques ruthless ambition. He suggested diverting the course of the Nile River to render Egypt barren. And he even planned to steal the body of the Prophet Muhammad, and hold it for ransom until all Muslims had left the Holy Land.
