Portuguese Colonization (1521-1602)[edit | edit source]
Bahrain was seized by the Portuguese in the mid-16th century. The Portuguese ruled the islands by largely indirect rule for eighty years. Portugal remained in control until they were driven out of the island in 1602, when a popular uprising led by Rukn ed-Din took control of the Bahrain Fort.[1]
