This occurred parts of the Konkan region that were annexed into the Portuguese East Indies, with the capital (metropole) at Velha Goa & Bombay (Bom Bahia) was the largest territory (province) of Portuguese India. They retain some of the ethno-social values and customs of their ancestors, and most of them exhibit a noticeable hybrid Latino-Concanic culture.[12][13]
