Portuguese Colonization
The most striking aspect of the Portuguese seaborne empire was its extreme dispersion in chains of forts along various continental coastlines and islands. By the time of Prince Henry's death in 1460, the Portuguese had reached Sierra Leone, which was 1,500 miles down the west African coast. There they established fortified trading posts, feitorias, close to the sea, guarded by caravels bearing canons. This style of settlement, which the Portuguese later introduced into Asia, required few settlers and was designed to facilitate trade.

exclusively commercial nature of colonization / colonies
As feitorias (alemão Faktorei, inglês factory, francês Factorerie o Factorie) eram colónias de carácter exclusivamente comercial no estrangeiro, onde os soberanos estabeleciam casas para tratarem dos seus negócios e interesses dos seus súditos.
Na Antiguidade fez-se sob a forma de feitorias a colonização dos Fenícios e dos Gregos na orla mediterrânica; nos tempos modernos, as feitorias dos Europeus espalharam-se por todo o Oriente, tendo a primeira sido estabelecida pelos portugueses em África: o Castelo de São Jorge da Mina, em 1482. Destacou-se, ainda, a Feitoria de Ajudá, dedicada ao tráfico de escravos.

: how would this differentiate between the Spanish and Portuguese-type colonisation though? Both were very different./ That is exactly my point, the Portuguese one was based on "trading posts".

I think we are talking about the Portuguese colonization here, not the Spanish colonization...Why are you resending your comment?
