"Goa, History of an Encounter". In Goa, nothing is simple, everything is complex. How do you explain the charm of this land? What happened in Goa was an encounter, between Indian and Portuguese, that lasted for 451 years. The Portuguese colonisation of Goa was, too, atypical. Some have called the result "mixed race in a spiritual way". A gathering and experience of friction between two cultures, with the Goans being forced to compromise between resistance and surrendering every day, that had serious consequences. Today, Goans say they are different. They are. The question remaining is how and why.
