I mean, if you had the opportunity to eat a new kind of meat taken right from the enemy you just fought to assert total dominance over them, why wouldn’t you?
Sopa de elefante, uma delícia
I dont want to be that Guy, but we too Fought Barry.
Please count us in
I don’t know about war elephant, but during the siege of Paris in 1870 we ate the whole fucking zoo
why would you waste a perfectly good elephant. What are you gonna do, bury it? Fuck all that extra work, just fire up the bbq
When was this? I didnt get my pachyderm share…
Sorry, but Hannibal crossed Hispania with elephants so It should be yellow.
I would not be surprised if we faced war elephants in Asia.
The Tuga Empire fight elefantes in Índia, but in the conquer of Malaca a fight againt elefantes became famous.
F..k. how pathetic we are..
Like we just have a Cristiano Ronaldo in live, so we have also a Afonso de Albuquerque in life
I mean, you guys in the south kinda exterminated the European and north African elephants before we ever got the notion that there was anything worth stealing in the south.
You didn’t need to kill them off so quickly man…
People from Portugal love African meat in their mouth? Or is it Indian?
Once again, Portuguese people viewing this post be like:
They really wasted all those elephant meats huh
Elephants are trade, not food. Just like spices
sorry I know this is a job for Hans but… ” didn’t eat”
Judging by this map I guess I’d rather go to war against elephants than against emus.
Seems we cornered the trade in elephants as well at some point. The Dutch East Indies Company (VOC) had an elephant on the coat of arms of its Ceylon division, because it was its most famous export from that island. Elephants yielded up to 7,000 Guilders, a fortune in that era. The VOC even had a special quay constructed to facilitate loading and unloading elephants, which it sold all over South Asia.
Didnt travel much? Bitch we explored more, its true you got a head start but we had an entire continent and 2 oceans to explore, fair enough getting to japan firat.
Portuguese right after the battle.
Pretty sure the French ate a whole zoo once.
This sub might be the most entertaining source for historical facts. Love it
Bro… wdym didn’t travel much? We stole your map and took over your shit

When Hannibal crossed the Alps with his elephants, where do you think he started from?
The fact you see something and feel the urge to eat it only proves your own food lacks any kind of appeal.
