In that year, he was still in Portugal, preparing for his voyage to India.<\/p>\n<p>Option C is incorrect because Albuquerque did not acquire Goa in 1515. In that year, he was busy consolidating his control over Goa and other parts of Portuguese India.<\/p>\n<p>Option D is incorrect because Albuquerque did not acquire Goa in 1517.
