从1484年起,葡萄牙就是西欧最先兴起的海上强国。自1498年瓦斯科·达·伽马率领舰队到达印度南部卡利卡特后,亚洲史上的“瓦斯科·达·伽马时代”开始了。当1509年战胜了土耳其、阿拉伯和印度的联合舰队后,就势如破竹地向东扩展,占领了果阿、马六甲以及南洋群岛等许多地方,并于1517年起开始与中国沿海接触。因1535年市舶司移设澳门,葡商得以混迹于此,而澳门也随之很快成为国际商埠。通过国际贸易,澳门促进了祖国经济的发展。澳门自由港的氛围在客观上为中国政治思想的发展和中西文化的交流提供了某些方便
Since 1484, Portugal was the first maritime power to rise in Western Europe. After Vasco da Gama led the fleet to Calicut in southern India in 1498, the “Vasco da Gama era” in Asian history began. When it defeated the combined fleet of Turkey, Arabia and India in 1509, it expanded eastward in many ways, occupying many places such as Goa, Malacca and the South Pacific Islands and began to engage with the Chinese coast in 1517. Because of the relocation of the City Department of Shipping to Macao in 1535, the Portuguese businessmen got mixed here and Macau soon became an international commercial port. Through international trade, Macao has promoted the economic development of the motherland. The atmosphere of Macao’s free port objectively provides some convenience to the development of Chinese political thought and the exchange of Chinese and Western cultures
