      The sphere on our national flag is the armillary sphere. It was first introduced by John VI of Portugal (João VI of Portugal). This sphere was to represent the Union with Brazil. When Napoleon invaded Portugal, Portuguese royal family moved to Brazil and made Rio de janeiro as it's capital. The sphere itself was firstly introduced by the Templars and Henry the navigator did too. This symbol is used to represent the Age of Discoveries, which was one of Portugal's golden age.

    Back in the 70s, when I was stationed with the US Air Force in Germany, I was on vacation in Spain, and thought of taking a short jaunt over to Portugal, but I was tired, it had been a long trip, so I decided to go back to base instead. On THAT day, Portugal had the coup that overthrew Salazar.

    The Spanish city of Ceuta also has that coat of arms, because it was part of Portugal (in fact, it was the first place that Portugal conquered outside the Iberian Peninsula), but in 1640, when Spain and Portugal splat up again, it remained with Spain, and has been part of it ever since.

    Some additional corrections which I also posted to the main video:
    4:03 - it's "Bom Jesus do Monte", not "Com Jesus do Monte" (as a Bracarense, that one really stood out).
    10:35 - it's "mirandês" or "mirandés". "Mirandese" is the English name of the language so it should have been pronounced as an English word (i.e. the same way as "Portuguese")
    13:05 - the Associação Académica de Coimbra was founded, obviously, in Coimbra - not in Porto!
    Also, as a fan of espresso, Paul - how come you didn't mention it in the episode? We Portuguese take our coffee pretty seriously, as I'm sure you had the chance to taste yourself when you visited ;)

    Eventually we will make them learn: Slovenian uses postalveolar consonants, which makes anyone not used to them confused. For example the "sh" sound is written as "š", "ch" sound as "č" and so forth. "Gašper" in this instance is pronounced as "GA-SH-PER". Could use more examples, but at that point we are training you not to bite your tongues while speaking West Balkan stuff.

    the word arigato does not originate from Portuguese. But glass in Japanese is a Portuguese word. we say "vidro", Japanese says something similar like "vitro" and also the word cake in Portuguese is "bolo" which is very similar to the Japanese word for cake. We were also the first to arrive japan and founded the city of Nagasaki. We are the oldest and truest nation-state. And yes with have a friendly rivalry with Spain, however our biggest enemies during the empire days were the dutch which stole a lot of our colonies during the Iberian union. This is one of the reasons why we fought the independence against Spain. We only lost our independence once during our existence, for 60 years, to the Iberian union. You guys at geography now actually did a good job explaining some stuff. But again nothing is better than to visit the country and enjoy your time with the locals if you really want to know more.

      So it makes sense to have a reference to the Asturian cross.
      But having the flag of your greatest rival in history, after fighting so many wars to maintain sovereignity while they slowly took over the rest of Iberia... Seems a bit insulting to the pride don't you think?

    Barbs: please make sure that when you hold a flag of Puerto Rico (also the flag of Cuba, because they are pretty much the same except for the inverted colors) you hold the flag right side up meaning that the star needs to be "standing". A star has five points so two of those points will make the legs the other two will make the arms and the one point will make the head so if you put just the one point down it means it's upside down. If you look at the US flag all 50 states or Stars are standing.

Napoleon launched a continental blockade order, where no european country could negotiate with the United Kingdom, in order to make it weaker and so Napoleon could invade UK way easier. But Portugal refuse that order because of both countries being so strong allies. So Napoleon got mad and tried to invade and occupy Portugal three times, and he failed all of them, which led him to give up Portugal and go attack Russia, which also refuse that order. (something that also went horribly wrong).

    Hi. First time i am commenting here. Awesome "show". I am waiting almost two years you come to S like sLOVEnia :D.
    And yes, Luka Sulič from 2cellos is Slovenian, dont belive to Croats :P. Luka Dončič too, Melania Trump too, etc, etc....
    We may be tiny country but we rule the world Mwahahahah
    (p.s. jokes apart, great show and if you want to know more about us, i will be glad to help you out)
    p.s. 2 you might search on TH-cam for "America first, slovenia second". Its ironic but mostly very, very true....
