    Extractions: An independent kingdom since 1143, Portugal established its continental frontiers in 1297 and is one of the oldest nations in Europe. The former world power during the 15th and 16th centuries, lost much of its wealth and status with the destruction of Lisbon in a 1755 earthquake, the occupation during the Napoleonic Wars, and the independence in 1822 of Brazil as a colony. A 1910 revolution deposed the monarchy; for most of the next six decades repressive governments ran the country.

    Extractions: History The revolution eventually played itself out. Many of its feared consequences, such as a communist takeover or a civil war, did not occur. Moreover, many of the actions, for example, nationalizations and collectivizations that were implemented during the revolution, had been reversed to a great extent by early 1993, and the serious damage done to the overall economy was gradually being repaired. The economy grew rapidly in the second half of the 1980s and continued to show respectable growth rates in the early 1990s. As another indication of improving economic health, Portugal's currency, the escudo, was strong enough to be placed in the exchange rate mechanism of the European Monetary System (see Glossary) in April 1992. The revolution's legacy also had a positive side, however, and nearly two decades after the sequence of events that began in April 1974, some remarkable achievements could be seen. After centuries of isolation and backwardness, Portugal had become an fully integral part of Western Europe through its membership in the European Community (EC). In the first half of 1992, Portugal assumed the presidency of the EC and fulfilled the obligations of this office in a professional manner. Even more significant, perhaps, were the establishment and consolidation of a system of parliamentary democracy. After a troubled start, this democracy, watched a had given the country a strong and competent government able to bring about peaceful change.

    Extractions: Country Info Portugal Introduction Portugal General Data Portugal Maps Portugal Culture ... Portugal Time and Date Portugal History Back to Top The History of Portugal can be separated into seven broad times. The first begins in the Paleolithic time and extends to the formation of Portugal as an independent monarchy. During this time, Lusitania, that portion of the western Iberian Peninsula known today as Portugal, experienced many waves of conquest and settlement by Iberos, Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Swabians, Visigoths, and Muslims. Of these successive waves of people, the Romans left the greatest imprint on present Portuguese society. The sixth, the time of constitutional monarchy, begins with the liberal revolution of 1820, which accomplished in Portugal for the first time a written constitution. This time includes a civil war in which constitutionalists triumphed over absolutists, the winning of freedom by Brazil, and the exploration of Portugal's African possessions. It ends with the collapse of rotativismo in the early twentieth century. The final time begins in 1910 with the downfall of the monarchy and the establishment of the First Republic. This time includes the corporative republic of António de Oliveira Salazar; the collapse of that regime on April 25, 1974; and the establishment of Portugal's present democratic regime, the Second Republic.

Although the country is struggling to become a 21st century economic power, Portugal's best side is found in historic buildings, a warm, friendly culture, and a beautiful countryside. Portugal history is of significance due to the country's role as a naval power; however an earthquake in 1751 destroyed much of the country's grand architecture that was the result of its conquests. From a practical point of view, Portugal does not possess as many world class attractions as its neighbors but the country itself is world class, offering great food, pleasant scenery and a slow, enjoyable pace of living.

Many scouting associations appeared. However, only two of them made it through: Unido dos Adueiros de Portugal (which became extinct in 1930) and The Associacion dos Escoteiros de Portugal (AEP), still operational. CNE is another Scouting organization that is active today. The Catholic Church is the sponsor of this association In 1922. The International Eucharistic Congress was taking place in Rome, Italy. Taking part of it, was the Braga Archbishop, D. Manuel Vieira de Matos with Dr. Avelino Gonzalves, his Secretary. The Italian Catholic Scouts did a great job serving in the Congress and giving it a youthful touch. The Archbishop was so impressed, that he asked his Secretary: "Can't we have them here, too?" As soon as they got back to Braga, the work started, and on 27 May 1923, the Braga Local Authorities approved the "Corpo de Scouts Catolicos Portugueses". The next November the Portuguese Government ratifies the movement and approves the Statutes. The Corpo Nacional de Escutas had been founded, the name was changed later.

In spite of all these mixtures, Portugal is one of the oldest nations in Europe. In the 12th century, the country gained its independence from the other kingdoms in the Iberian Peninsula thanks to Count Afonso Henriques, who was our first king at his own wish. A century later, with the conquest of the Algarve, Portugal was to
