Question

Stories about Malacca wealth reached as far as Europe and tempted the Portuguese, who were making technological advances in navigation, to sail to this part of the world to have more influence on the global spice trade network (and which would make their profits higher). In 1511 Malacca was conquered by a Portuguese fleet under the leadership of general Alfonso de Albuquerque this conquest, however, had far-reaching consequences for the trade routes. Malacca, once a wealthy port, quickly perished under the rule of the portuguese who never succeeded in monopolizing Asian trade. After the conquest, traders immediately started to avoid Malacca and went to take their business to several other ports instead. Aceh (Sumatra),  Banten (Java), and Johor (Malaysia) were states that began to dominate spice trade due to the shift in trade routes after Malacca had fallen in Portuguese hands.

A. Invites the people of Malacca to convert to christianity
B. Controlloed the spice trade and occupied Malacca
C. Expand territory
