Spanish people were the first Europeans to colonize the Americas, setting the precedent for the violence and discrimination which has continued for the last 500 years.
The longest lasting Fascist country in Europe was Spain, which was fascist from 1939-1975.
I bet the 1975 Spaniards remembered the 1974 Portuguese.
But also, when I told a neighbor I was honeymooning in Portugal I was asked “Where is that? Is it part of Spain?”
So yeah, it’s a lot of folks out there who don’t remember Portugal.
Two things people forget:
Portugal’s fascist regime lasted from 1933 to 1974. It was 5 years longer than Spain’s.
Huh? I didn’t know they won their independence from Brazil. Good for them I guess.
fucking spit all over my kb
Yea but tbf no one remembers Portugal.
Portuguese are just confused Spaniards in the same way that Belgians are confused Frenchies.
I thought Belgians are confused Germans?
No, those are Austrians.
