And Portugal has the most profound and long-lasting colonial history among all the existing European countries. Also, the colonial history of Portugal has lasted for a very long time for more than 600 years from the beginning to now.
Moreover, the official language of Portugal is the Portuguese, which is the sixth largest language which is widely spread and used in the world. However, with the independence of Brazil—one of the largest colony of Portugal, Portugal has gradually faded since the early 19th century. After that, on 5th, October, 1910, the Portuguese revolution overthrew the Portuguese royal family and then established the unstable democratic regime—the first Republic of Portugal. However, this newly-built regime was also overthrown by the military coup led by conservative officers, and then the new regime was also called the second Republic of Portugal. Also, Portugal has already ended its colony wars in 1974 and then became the country with the freedom and democracy once again.
