Portugal officially converted to Christianity during the early Middle Ages, with significant influence from the spread of Christianity in the Iberian Peninsula around the 5th century. The region saw the establishment of Christian kingdoms, notably the County of Portugal, which emerged in the 12th century. The formal recognition of Portugal as a kingdom in 1139 under Afonso I further solidified its Christian identity. By this time, the Catholic Church played a central role in the country's political and social life.
