Explanation

Goa was a Portuguese colony (option A) for approximately 450 years, from 1510 until 1961, when it was annexed by India. Portugal was the last European colonial power to leave the Indian subcontinent. Spain, France, and the USA never colonized Goa, though France did have other colonies in India (Pondicherry, Chandernagore, etc.).
