Which european nation conquered malacca in 1511?
a. england
b. portugal
c. france
d. the netherlands

The correct answer is B. In 1511, Malacca was conquered by Portugal.

Explanation:

The news about the riches of Malacca attracted the attention of Manuel I, king of Portugal, who sent Admiral Diogo Lopes de Sequeira to find Malacca and make a commercial pact with his ruler as representative of Portugal. Sequeira arrived in Malacca in 1509, becoming the first European to arrive in Southeast Asia.

Sequeira was well received by Sultan Mahmud Shah, however, a group of Muslims from Goa (then held by the Ottoman Empire) came before the Sultan's court convincing him that the Portuguese were a serious threat. Mahmud then decided to capture several of Sequeira's men, killed others and tried to attack the four Portuguese ships, which however managed to escape. After this incident, the Portuguese were convinced that the conquest was the only way to be able to settle in Malacca.

In April 1511, Afonso de Albuquerque sailed from Goa to Malacca with a force of about 1,200 men and seventeen ships. He made a series of demands to the Sultan, among them he requested permission to build a fortress near the city. Obviously, all the demands were rejected and the conflict broke out: after forty days of fighting, Malaca fell to the Portuguese on 24 August.

Albuquerque, preventing future counterattacks by Mahmud, designed and built a fortress on the former site of the Sultan's palace and remained in Malacca until November 1511, preparing its defenses. Sultan Mahmud Shah was forced to flee from Malacca.

explanation:

take five to 10 minutes to warm up and cool down properly.

plan to start slowly and boost your activity level gradually unless you are already exercising frequently and vigorously.

be aware that training too hard or too often can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles, and inflamed tendons and ligaments. sports prompting repetitive wear and tear on certain parts of your body — such as swimming (shoulders), jogging (knees, ankles, and feet), tennis (elbows) — are often overuse culprits, too. a mix of different kinds of activities and sufficient rest is safer.

listen to your body. hold off on exercise when you're sick or feeling very fatigued. cut back if you cannot finish an exercise session, feel faint after exercise or fatigued during the day, or suffer persistent aches and pains in joints after exercising.

if you stop exercising for a while, drop back to a lower level of exercise initially. if you're doing strength training, for example, lift lighter weights or do fewer reps or sets.

for most people, simply drinking plenty of water is sufficient. but if you're working out especially hard or doing a marathon or triathlon, choose drinks that replace fluids plus essential electrolytes.

choose clothes and shoes designed for your type of exercise. replace shoes every six months as cushioning wears out.

for strength training, good form is essential. initially use no weight, or very light weights, when learning the exercises. never sacrifice good form by hurrying to finish reps or sets, or struggling to lift heavier weights.

exercising vigorously in hot, humid conditions can lead to serious overheating and dehydration. slow your pace when the temperature rises above 70°f. on days when the thermometer is expected to reach 80°f, exercise during cooler morning or evening hours or at an air-conditioned gym. watch for signs of overheating, such as headache, dizziness, nausea, faintness, cramps, or palpitations.

dress properly for cold-weather workouts to avoid hypothermia. depending on the temperature, wear layers you can peel off as you warm up. don't forget gloves.
