*From the mid-16th-century the region came under the increasing influence of European colonial powers, with Maldives becoming a '''British protectorate''' in 1887. In 1558, the Portuguese established a small garrison which they administered from their main colony in Goa. Fifteen years later Muslims drove the Portuguese out of Maldives. | |||
*In the mid-17th century, the '''Dutch''', who had replaced the Portuguese as the dominant power in Ceylon, established hegemony over Maldivian affairs' | |||
