1535 CE Maritime South Asia

Bahadur Shah, while on board the galleon St. Mattheus, had signed the Treaty of Bassein on December 23, 1534.

Based on the terms of the agreement, the Portuguese Empire gained control of the city of Bassein (Vasai), as well as its territories, islands, and seas.

Gujarat is occupied around 1535 by the Mughals, and Bahadur Shah is forced to conclude an alliance with the Portuguese to regain the country, conceding Daman and Diu, Mumbai, and Vasai to the Portuguese.
