the 1755 earthquake destroyed their capital and much of their colonial treasures to the point where they never recovered. i think thats punishment enough

Why did Japanese colonialism never leave these 'lasting scars' like the European colonialism

Most people think Portugal is an autonomous Spanish province.

>>2523938

Questioning things is bad for your health, goys.

>>2523948
That's just what the the linguicafags want you to think.

>>2523938
Koreans are still angry about Japanese rule and many Chinese about Manchuckuo

>>2523938
They do. Chinese and Korean politics is dominated with Japan bashing and riots, protesting, demands for apologies.

Just because you're ignorant of it doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

>>2523928
BUT Portugal is an irrelevant nation that's stagnating on top of the entire nation hyper centralising on Lisbon by the year.

By 2030 Portugal won't exist at all. It will be called Lisbon

>nip colonialism forded over ten mirrion times leaves behind one of the biggest economic powerhouses in east asia
>european colonialism leaves behind... africa

And besides, the rising sun flag is seen as the eqivalent of the hakenkreuz there, so I'd say they're pretty butthurt about it.

Why do the Portuguese speak Brazilian? Never understood that.

>>2524652
Because otherwise they'd be speaking Spanish

>>2524652

Because they gave the pope a crude map of South Africa, and he said the right side belongs to Portugal and the rest to Spain

Cheap way into the Eu.

Bro, all countries in the world commited things that were not good to mankind in some time of their history, all of them. Colonization is not good.
But contemporany portuguese or french, or english or spanish, dutch and other colonial power's can´t pay for some bad behaviors of their ancestors hundreds of years ago. If you analyse without bias you would see that from all the european powers - Portugal, Spain, England,France and others, portuguese colonization was not that brutal. They brough civilization and built everything there, the cities,roads,hospitals.

>>2524652
ahaha brazilians speak portuguese man.

>>2525104
It was called Tordesilhas treaty, Portugal and Spain divided the world for them in the first stages of the exploration.

>>2526826
No bro, portuguese people are european to the core. You should visit.

>Three types of forced labor were imposed in Angola [in the late 19th-early 20th centuries]. The most severe was a form of modern slavery in which workers were shipped to São Tomé or Principe for five years of hard labor on coffee and cocoa plantations, from which few returned. The second type of forced labor put people to work for major government and business enterprises throughout Angola. The colonial government contracted with major employers to provide required numbers of workers in exchange for substantial administrative fees paid by employers for this service. The third type of forced labor involved local service by men, women, and children on public works such as highway construction and maintenance, cultivation of gardens, building of houses, and other tasks determined by the local administrator. While exact numbers are impossible to determine, one estimate suggested that as late as 1954, almost 380,000 workers were subjected to forced labor. Despite some reforms in the 1940s and 1950s, forced labor was not abolished until 1962. The compulsory labor system played a great part in uniting Africans against Portuguese rule during the early liberation struggles.

>In 1928 the annual tax for an African male in central Angola was the equivalent of 100 days pay for a contract laborer. By 1945 the tax had increased by 50 per cent. Many fled to neighboring countries rather than pay the tax. Those who could neither pay the tax nor flee were the most likely to be subjected to contract labor.

>>2530762
>The coffee plantations enjoyed great economic success for their primarily settler owners, until disruption of most of Angola’s agriculture during the civil war. Tens of thousands of Africans were displaced by European producers in townships across the coffee-producing areas. While coffee production brought great prosperity to the Portuguese and large profits to foreign investors, for Africans it created only great resentment directed against the government.

>In addition, many Africans were forced from their subsistence lands to work on cotton plantations. In some areas African families were forced to grow cotton for no wages on prescribed plots of land. Their harvests were sold at below-market prices in order to subsidize the floundering urban-based textile industry. When plots ceased being productive, the African workers were forced to move to new ones, often great distances from their homes.

>>2530806
>In central Angola, the development of corn and sisal as export crops likewise forced many subsistence farmers into wage labor. Corn exports expanded from zero in 1919 to 100,000 metric tons in 1950. Corn production, which took place on small family plots, greatly impoverished the region’s already poor soils.

>Production of crops such as coffee, corn, cotton, and sisal for export greatly diminished the land and labor available for subsistence activities. The minimal wages gained through contract labor could in no measure make up for the loss of subsistence production and goods. In addition the loss of community members to contract labor contributed to the deterioration of village life and the breakdown of kinship groups.

They can at least assume they did that or apologize like Japan
