Portuguese is spoken in the cities of Portugal, to which country the language is native. From Portugal, the language was spread in the 15th and 16th centuries by Portuguese navigators and colonizers to Africa, the Americas, and Asia. All of the former colonies have become independent. But Portuguese still is spoken in cities in Angola; Brazil; Cape Verde Islands; Goa and other former areas of Portuguese India; East Timor; Guinea-Bissau; Macau; Mozambique; and Sao Tome and Principe. Additionally, contact with former colonies has encouraged Portuguese language use in cities in such neighboring African countries as Equatorial Guinea, Mauritius, Morocco, Namibia, Senegal, and South Africa. Contact also has encouraged its spread through Latin America to cities in such countries as Argentina; Bolivia; the island nations of Aruba, Barbados, Bermuda, Bonaire, and Curacao; Paraguay; Suriname; The Co-operative Republic of Guyana; Uruguay; and Venezuela. Particularly educational and employment opportunities have led to the spread of Portuguese language use into cities in Australia; in the North American countries of Canada and the United States of America; and to other countries in Europe such as Andorra, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, and specifically, research opportunities have led to Portuguese language use in scattered scientific communities on Antarctica. And Portuguese is spoken in cities throughout the world where native speakers live, with their families and friends, to teach Portuguese culture, geography, history, language and culture. And it also is spoken in cities throughout the world where individuals represent their respective Portuguese speaking governments through diplomatic service.
