Littered with UNESCO World Heritage sites and graced by one of Europe's most relaxed and attractive capitals, it also remains refreshingly affordable. Savouring life slowly is a Portuguese passion, and much of the best is humble - traditional folk festivals; simple, honest food drowning in olive oil; music that pulls at the heart strings, recalling past love and glories; and markets overflowing with fish, fruit and flowers.

    Portugal was governed for two years by a leftist military junta led by members of the Movimento das Forcas Armadas , the instigators of the revolution, while civilian politicians re-emerged and crystallised around the Socialist and Communist Parties and the right-wing Partido Popular Democratico . Under the constitution adopted in 1976, Portugal was nominally committed to a path of socialist development, but the country has since followed a standard Western European model of political pluralism. Portugal has been a member of NATO since its inception in 1949 and a member of the EC, now the EU, since 1986. The Government of Anibal Cavaco Silva which took office in 1987 concentrated on bridging the economic gap between Portugal and its richer fellow Community members. With average annual growth of around 5 per cent in the last four years, the Government was broadly successful on the economic front.

As elsewhere in Western Europe, the far right has been gaining ground in Portugal, although its historical background means that the PPD often seems more interested in rekindling ancient rivalries between Portugal and Spain than in pursuing the customary ultra-right themes of race, immigration and crime. Barroso was appointed as President of the European Commission in Brussels and Pedro Santana Lopes was elected as Portugal's Prime Minster in 2004.

      History
      [edit this] [Upload image] The history of Portugal can be divided into seven broad periods. The first begins in the Paleolithic period and extends to the formation of Portugal as an independent monarchy. During this period 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 second broad period of Portuguese history runs from the founding of the monarchy in 1128 until the disappearance of the House of Burgundy Portugal's first dynasty in 1383. During this period the monarchy was established and expanded by reconquering territory from the Muslims and populating those lands with Christian settlers. Consolidation and economic development were furthered by policies designed to increase agricultural productivity. The third period begins with the founding of the House of Avis Portugal's second ruling dynasty. During this period Portugal experienced a dynastic struggle that brought the House of Avis to the throne a series of wars with Castile that threatened the independence of the new kingdom a social revolution a second dynastic struggle and the assertion of royal supremacy over the nobility.

      Early History
      There is little direct filiation between the Portuguese of today and the early tribes who inhabited this region, although the Portuguese long considered themselves descendants of the Lusitanians, a Celtic people who came to the area after 1,000 B.C. The Lusitanians had their stronghold in the Serra da Estrela. Under Viriatus (2d cent. B.C. ) and under Sertorius (1st cent. B.C. ), they stoutly resisted the Romans (see Lusitania ). Other tribes, such as the Conii in Algarve, submitted more readily. Julius Caesar and Augustus completed the Roman conquest of the area, and the province of Lusitania thrived. Roman ways were adopted, and it is from Latin that the Portuguese language is derived. At the beginning of the 5th cent. A.D. , the whole Iberian Peninsula was overrun by Germanic invaders; the Visigoths eventually established their rule, but in the north the Suevi established a kingdom that endured until late in the 6th cent., when they were absorbed by the Visigoths. Present-day Algarve was part of the Byzantine Empire during the 6th and 7th cent. In 711 the Visigoths were defeated by the

    Portugal Travel Book - Every month a new town is visited by me and a new collection is released on-line. Portugal Book - Photos, Pictures, Photographs, Images, On-line. Portugal Travel Book History: The part of Iberia which is now Portugal was occupied by a people known as the Lusitanos who are thought to be direct ancestors of the Portuguese people. The region was invaded and occupied by the Romans and later the Moors; it remained under the latter's control until the 11th century, when Ferdinand, ruler of the Kingdom of Leon and Castilla (in what is now Spain) conquered much of the territory. Over the next 200 years, the remaining Moors were driven out and the boundaries of Portugal fixed; and it was during this period (in 1143) that Portugal first became recognised as an independent entity under the rule of King Afonso Henriques. The Castilians were themselves expelled in 1385 after defeat at the hands of João of Aviz (who became King João I) at the Battle of Aljubarotta. From this point, the Portuguese went on to build a colonial empire in Africa, Latin America, India and the Far East. One of the most famous figures during this period was Prince Henry the Navigator, amongst whose acquisitions were the Azores and Madeira. One of the best-known visitors to Madeira was Christopher Columbus, who married a daughter of one of the island's governors and lived for some time on Porto Santo. The island survived a brief invasion by a French pirate in 1566, but in 1580, along with the rest of Portugal, came under Spanish domination.
