Novas Conquistas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Novas Conquistas are a group of seven administrative districts or Consuelhos of mainland Goa which were added onto Goa at a comparatively later date than the original three consuelhos that make up the Velhas Conquistas.
In writing postal addresses, this is abbreviated N.C.
The seven consulhos of the Novas Conquistas are Pernem, Bicholim, Satari, Ponda (or Antruz), Sanguem, Quepem and Canacona. They form the interior or outer (hinterland) portion of Goa.
