  • Presentation of Portugal's history and contribution to Western defense and the Atlantic Community.
    "Introducing Portugal" is part of a series originally designed as "Know your Allies", and finally titled "the Atlantic Community Series".
    Its objectives were to familiarize public opinion in each of the member country with the other Alliance members and to emphasize the national contributions to Western culture and political traditions, economic reconstruction and allied defense in the framework of NATO.
    The series was produced between 1954 and 1956 and financed by the US government in the context of the Marshall Plan with the cooperation of the Information Service of NATO, and distributed by NATO. The films in the Atlantic Community Series received large non-theatrical distribution and, in some cases, were shown in cinemas and on TV. Language versions were made and distributed with the help of the national governments.
    “My country and NATO” tells the story of each one of NATO’s members, using a selection of unique archival materials to take you back in time.

    Genetically speaking, the vast majority of the native Portuguese population are Celts. The amount of Greek and Phoenicians genes is negible. So people could have it, the vast majority don’t have that background, this is based in genetic studies carried out the population in the last 20 years.

      Yeah, the amount of Greek and Phoenician genes is negligible. The original inhabitants, know today simply as the Bell Beaker Culture, go back to 3000 BC. And the culture at the time of the Roman invasion, the Lusitanians, were also pre-Celts, although there was some intermixing with them. Then came the Romans and people from all over the Empire including a significant numbers of Jews. Then several tribes of barbarians from the region of the Black Sea and the Caucasus, then North African Moors, then we started mixing with large numbers of sub-Saharan Africans and people from South America, India and East Asia. We're probably one of the most intermixed people in the world, the "natives" so to speak contributed with just a tiny core to the present day gene pool of modern Portuguese, like the grain of sand at the heart of a pearl.

    Thank you for posting this video. It is obvious that it is an old video, although still relevant and informative, to a large extent
    However, as a Portuguese citizen, I need to point out a very important fact.
    Salazar was a dictator. He was a Jesuit. Initially, his regime brought about positive change. But, as in many such cases, through out world history, his regime changed into a dictatorship. There was mass oppression of the populace with baning of freedom eg the Freemasons were banned and there is no know record. My grandfather was a member of an independent Masonic Lodge. I have researched and not been able to find anything meaningful, except their Lodge title.... The reason being that the lodge were anti Salazar.
    Another fact is that there was a secret police, Pede, that was instrumental in implementing Salazar's policy. They were brutal, not unlike any other secret police in other countries.
    This contributed to the peaceful revolution of 1975. It was known as the Carnation Revolution... Why? The military that helped to overthrow the dictatorship, placed a carnation in their rifles.
    Portugal is beautiful with a long history. The people are warm and welcoming with lovely traditions. I am truly proud to be Portuguese 🇵🇹

      @@br3menPT On the matter of elections, I personally think they were free (Not necessarily fair and there were many accusations of fraud.). The Portuguese system had two basis; elections of a military President (Salazar stunted the military's political power so it is odd calling them a military dictatorship or indeed fascist, he was not.) and National Assembly who were mostly of his own party (The party however was barely utilised beyond the ratification of the 1930 Constitution. It and the youth thing were not an effective political force.). The former frequently threatened Salazar and he had to personally campaign as there was a real possibility that a new President (Who according to the Constitution had all the power.) would oust Salazar (However I do think he later made it so that the National Assembly voted for the President.). The National Assembly was a genuine vote (Salazar allowed Independent M.P.s, like Indalencio Pascoal Froilano de Mello, to sit but not for that long I suspect.) and they had some real power (He wrote a weird constitution.) as they overturned unanimously the Portuguese Colonial Act (1930). The corporatist aspect of the legislature was under-utilised however.

    So much propaganda here. 13:20 No, there was no 'talk of politics' or free elections. Talking about politics could land you in prison. The economy was a mess and many people were living in slums in the cities. Free speech and a free press were non-existent. In the countryside, the land was owned by a tiny number of people and the peasants who worked there were barely surviving. Not until the fascist regime was toppled in the 70s would Portugal really blossom into the great country it is today.

    • @johnnotrealname8168
      @johnnotrealname8168 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I would write they were free but not fair elections. I do agree here though especially later in the regime repression ramped up. I disagree on the economy, he radically improved the economy of the country and growth rates were reaching Asian levels however slums did exist like they did in most cities at that stage (Unfortunate as that is and perhaps he should take some responsibility there.). Salazar unfortunately was unable to break up the rural oligarchies however support for his regime remained in the peasants. His regime was not fascist, most historians agree on that (There was little to no self-promotion and he was a surprisingly humble man.). Portugal blossomed but it was rickety, the subsequent years had censorship and torture even but that went away soon afterwards and the economy...well it had it's problems. Even his opponents agree that he never did it for himself, looting the country like others have done.

      "The economy was a mess" the regime was a dictatorship and fascism, no question about that. But one thing for sure is, the economy wasnt a mess. What the regime did and was justified for, was to fix the economy. There are alot of myths about the regime, this is other. Other myth is "the Regime wanted people to be ignorant on purpose, so they didnt send no one to school". They should have made more, that is true, but its just another myth, the Estado Novo regime created more schools and universties then any other portuguese regime.
      Still a dictatorship, its not a good thing, but damn, so many arguments and myths, that doesnt make sense.
