Best Answer

The entire Iberian peninsula was called Hispania by the Romans, the border that exists today between Portugal and Spain did not exist when the Romans ruled the peninsula. The border that did exist however, made up by the Romans that contained most, but not all, of modern day Portugal was the province they called Hispania Lusitania.

So the answer I think you are looking for is Lusitania.

Hope this helps.
