The difference between the trading-post empire of the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean and the colonies in the New World is:

The outpost in the Indian Ocean were small outposts while the New World was the one where the Portuguese controlled large territories.

<h3>What was the New World?</h3>

This refers to the colonization of the Western Hemisphere by early explorers.

With this in mind, we can see that the Portuguese explorers established small outposts in the Indian Ocean which they discovered, which was different from their control of large territories in the New World.
