Portugal was not discovered. Portugal was pioneer in The Discoveries!
Portugal was not discovered ... Portugal is an European country and as such it had advanced civilizations for millenniums living there . The term "discovered" only applies to more isolated countries and continents like Oceania and America not European countries that were the center of western advanced civilization.
