      Infelizmente há muitos brasileiros que só olham para a parte da escravatura... É verdade, mas naquela época a escravatura era praticada por todos os países com maior poder... Independentemente disso, Portugal foi dos 2 primeiros países a abolir a escravatura! Há muito para além da escravatura... Portugal tirou com uma mão, mas deu com outra... Muitos missionários a trazerem a língua, cultura, sabedoria, religião, etc aos nativos. Hoje nenhum português se orgulha de ter praticado escravatura, mas temos orgulho em ter contribuído para o desenvolvimento do Brasil e tê-lo como um país que nos é muito querido 🙂

      If you like a more low key and relaxing vacation, check out St. Michael (or any of the Azores Islands). Especially if you are an American... the islands are closer to the US and English is widely spoken (everyone there has family in the US, so they really like Americans). The scenery is beautiful - semi-tropical and volcanic, with a rugged coastline and fields that remind me of Ireland. If you go in May, the Hydrangeas are amazing - they form massive hedgerows diving fields and they just go on for miles.

      J C G I do not agree with you. The anglo-portuguese treaty or alliance is much more important that a stricktly militar alliance - it is a trade alliance and a kingdom's alliance. And it has been good for both parts: the portuguese and the english. Nowadays it has helped to boost the portuguese economy. In the past it helped Portugal to survive as a nation and as an empire. The portuguese empire would surely last for quite shortlier if there was not the anglo-portuguese alliance. Remember the threats which could have resulted in the loss of portuguese independence: 1385 at Aljubarrota against the castilians 1639 at Montes Claros against the spaniards, over the years in the 17th century, against the dutch at Guararapes and at Luanda, the peninsular war (1807-1812) against the french and on November the 25th of 1975 against the russian communists. All the above threats were put off, thanks to this alliance (the last stated threat was also venquished under the protection of NATO and Portugal's american allies).

    Nice video, but just one clarification. Portugal was never made a province of Spain. The terms in 1580 allowed the empires to be managed separatily. Administrators of the Portuguese empire were Portuguese. of course, Portugal lost many elements of sovereignity, but not all, not by a long shot. Felipe I was a fair king, but his descendants started tearing the arrangement of 1580.

    Flores, from Portuguese which means "flower" is an island in the administrative area of ​​the Province of East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The name Flores comes from the Portuguese language "cabo de flores" which means "Cape of flowers". The name was originally given by S.M. Cabot to refer to the eastern region of the island of Flores. Finally used officially since 1636 by the Governor of the Dutch East Indies Hendrik Brouwer. A quite in-depth study by Orinbao (1969) revealed that the real name of the island of Flores was Nusa Nipa (snake island) which, from an anthropological perspective, was more useful because it contained various philosophical, cultural, and ritual traditions of the Flores people.

    Portugal was only called Portugal and officially established as an independent country in 1143. Before that, it was called Condado Portucalense (roughly translats to Portucalian County), which was still technically under the rule of Leon-Castilla.

      Templars were taken by King Denis of Portugal and changed their name into Order of Christ. Prince Henry the Navigator was the leader of the Order of Christ, hence, the portuguese Kingdom was in fact a Templar Kingdom in secret! A lot of secrets about foreign lands, maps, routes, etc that once were in Jerusalem were brought to Portugal.
