First thing to note: the Americas include all the land where countries like Canada, the United States (mistakenly known as "America"), Mexico, Argentina or Brazil are located.
Nowadays, Portugal no longer claims any land on the Americas; it used to own present-day Brazil but such country became independent from Portugal in September 7, 1822.
Mexico has land in the Americas, but current claims against other countries just include clear boundary demarcation.
