I know that Brazilians speak Portuguese but why do Spain and Portugal even have different languages? Portugal shouldn’t even be a country tbh.

It’s remember meeting a South Brazilian on holiday, my auntie was asking if she spoke Spanish and the Brazilian didn’t seem upset

A day later a Brazilian guy (this is not in Brazil btw) asks me if I can speak Arabic JFL

It happened in the 1000s (if I'm not mistaken) when a king gave that territory (Portugal) to his daughter.

Eventually the languages got different enough to be considered different languages. But there are a lot of dialects as well, for example Galician which is basically a in-between of Spanish and Portuguese.

Most of us Americans don’t even know that much about the countries that border us much less anything about Brazil

The English protected Portuguese independence from 1300s onwards. It's the worlds oldest alliance and it made sure Portugal didn't become part of Spain. For a short time when the Portuguese king died there was an Iberian union but it quickly got broken up

Portugal has always been a separate country, it formed before spain did, during the reconquista ( year 1128), Spain didn't form until the crowns of Aragon and castile unified (1479).

Around 1570 there was a brief period in which the entirety of Iberia was unified, but apart from that they have basically always been separate.

It is Americans we're talking about here. They're not renowned for their knowledge of any place out with the USA.

Yes tbh. But like Buddha said, from bad things come the good things, and we got our dear Portuguese language.
