Comments by "SCINTILLAM DEI" (@scintillam_dei) on "How did Portugal and Spain Plan to "Conquer" the World?" video.

@fgsaramago Spanish speakers are not only in South America. Much of North America speaks Spanish from Hialeah to Panamá to California. Portuguese sounds like drunk Spanish. :-)

You're just envious and mad that Spain destroyed the Muslim Brunei Empire. That's why Brunei is a little dot today. :-)

@GarkKahn Spain owned Brazil during the Iberian Union. :-) The Emperor was Spanish more than Portuguese or German by blood, and his capital was Madrid.

@iibugii9353 Spain was fighting the Muslim world and most of Europe and many Americans at the same time because Spain was consistent with its religion meaning it had to fight Protestants. But Portugal had no honour, so it sold its religion to acquire independence by remaining allied with their abusive and unfaithful boyfriend, the English gone Protestant. Portugal destroyed itself by ensuring Iberia would be divided. If they remained united with their brothers, Iberia would have had so much more. Too bad your people had to be so selfish. :-)

@Renzo Alarcón I'm a Honduran Spaniard now in Asia who plans to learn many languages including Quechua, Pukina, Lakota, Mayan and Náhuatl. I'm doing a massive realistic map of América for Age of Empires 2 HD where I already finished Lake Titicaca and Tenochtitlán in case anyone wants war between the most epic Native American civilizations.

Spain is why the Turks could not take Italy. They were practically equals but the Spanish Empire was the biggest, bigger than the British but those hypocrites count empty deserts and not oceans, when the Spanish Emperor monopolized most oceans during the Iberian Union, something the Brits never did with even 1 ocean a s a map of French islands in every ocean during the British Empire proves.

@gilbertogambagorte8749 "good friends" Portugal: "Hubey. YOu'll love me forever, right?" Britain: "Yeah, about that.... GET THE FORNICATION OUT OF AFRICA!"

Portugal global? It's missing out most of the Pacific which alone is like a third of the earth's surface. When you miss a third of a pizza, you don't say you got the whole pizza. But the sun never set on the Spanish Empire during the Iberian Union when Portugal was taken by force thanks to Moors doing the taking-out-the-king-and-nobles job.

Spain explored the west, and Portugal followed the trailblazers in the Far West. Portugal played it safe keeping mostly to the coasts having to hold mother earth's hand. :-) The liars will tell you Portugal got to America first but Columbus got to Venezuela before they got to Brazil. They were scrambling to get something before it was all taken by Spain. In the Iberian Union period, it WAS all taken by Spain. Watch the liars get mad:

@AleaRandomAm Finding América was the best mistake in history. Portugal WISHES it was their discovery. Portugal WISHES they discovered ANYTHING considering that almost everywhere they went was already discovered by ancients or Marco Polo such as India by Alexander and ancient romans who also traded around Somalia, Arabs and the Chinese along easternn Africa, China in SE Asia and Japan thereby informing Marco Polo, and Sub-Saharan western Africa Carthaginians explored about 2,000 years earlier! LOL!

I'm doing a massive realistic map of América for Age of Empires 2 HD also including all of Africa, all of Japan and some other regions such as of course España & Portugal. I recently argued with some Portuguese liars claiming that they discovered more than Spain, and that Spain did not dominate Portugal during the Iberian Union. Don't let them deceive you. Thanks to Moors wrecking the Portuguese royalty and army that invaded Morocco, later came a wonderful: "[...]victory for the Spanish army, both on land and sea. Two days later, the Duke of Alba captured Lisbon, and on March 25, 1581, Philip of Spain was crowned King of Portugal as Philip I." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Alc%C3%A2ntara_(1580) The following areas were already known about by others: - Arabia by Greece, Rome, Persia and others. (Alexander's men were the first Europeans to sail in the Persian Gulf, not the Portuguese.) - Ethiopia by ancient Greeks who gave it the name we use today. - Somalia ancient Romans traded around all the way to Kenya. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJGnnxPn7SU&ab_channel=KingsandGenerals "Roman Trade with Africa DOCUMENTARY" See the 16:28 mark. - India ancient Romans traded with, and of course, Alexander who slew his way there and knew about kingdoms besides Porus' since all he had to do was ask Indians about other Indians. - China which Marco Polo went to, and through China, Southeast Asia, Korea and Japan. - Eastern Africa Arabs explored the coasts of which is why Swahili has Arabic influence. Zheng He also was there. - Sub-Saharan western Africa where Carthaginians explored almost 2,000 years earlier. The Portuguese boast that they found out the Indian Ocean is connected to the Atlantic but the ancient Greek Ἐρατοσθένης ὁ Κυρηναῖος already knew that. https://www.worldhistory.org/uploads/images/6154.jpg?v=1608894003 Compare these so-called Portuguese "discoveries" to Spain's discovering COUNTLESS TRIBES and COUNTLESS REALLY UNKNOWN ABOUT LANDS from Tierra del Fuego to southern Alaska which Spain explored first among Europeans. Vikings found only a little dot in the northeast coast of North America which they couldn't keep for long. So they knew nothing about most of América. Portugal kept it safe keeping to the coasts having to hold morther earth's hand until seeing brave Spaniards cross the unknown Atlantic to the west. You enjoy chocolate because of Spain, not Portugal. French fries also, as potatoes are from the Incan realm. The caravel and carrack technology enabling trans-oceanic travel unlocking the world for Portugal and thereby the rest of Europe and then the world, was not entirely a Portuguese invention as they would have you believe, since Prince Henry "the Navigator" hired Italian experts at sea from Genoa and Venice, and depended on Italian knowledge. "Antoniotto Usodimare or Usus di Mare (1416–1462) was a Genoese trader and explorer in the service of the Portuguese Prince Henry the Navigator. Jointly with Alvise Cadamosto, Usodimare discovered a great stretch of the West African coast in two known voyages in 1455 and 1456. They notably discovered the Cape Verde islands, and the Guinea coast from the Gambia River to the Geba River (in Guinea-Bissau)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoniotto_Usodimare "In 1428, Peter visited his marquisate of Treviso and the nearby Republic of Venice, where he was presented with a copy of the book of Marco Polo by the doge. He later gave that book, as well as maps of the Venetian trade routes in the Orient, to his younger brother Prince Henry the Navigator." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter,_Duke_of_Coimbra Connect the dots. It's not a coincidence that the Portuguese Empire began right after Italians were hired. But the Portuguese in general are willfully ignorant conceited ingrates who look down on Spain despite being ecilpsed by the superior Iberian nation in size and glory. Just compare how many speak Portuguese today to Spanish. But they will boast in Aljubarrota, an ENGLISH longbow victory that cost them their entire empire since the Brits took all of their trade routes from them, and kicked them out of Africa with an ultimatum! LOL!

@filhodarosa7512 Vikings did not have gunpowder so they had more trouble with Natives than Spaniards. Maybe the Natives were strong enough to repel the outnumbered Europeans with bizarre hair colours. A Viking leader would LOVE to have a huge amount of territory if only to boast in his conquest. Vikings always sought glory in battles, and conquest of lands woud prove many battles won, at least against bears. :-)
4
@fgsaramago Portugal never discovered America, liar. Your fable is insane because you're saying Portugal willingly gave up two huge continents and the biggest ocean in the universe to Spain.... That's like saying that since I'm your opponent in this debate, you're goingt o send me $200,000. Logic and Lose-itanians don't get along.
3
@fgsaramago Such hypocrisy for the Portuguese to claim him as one of their own when Spain made him a succees 'cause they didn't believe in him, and the Portuguese wanted him DEAD at the time. He RENOUNCED his Portuguese nationality. He DIDN'T WANT TO BE PORTUGUESE! LOL! And Lapu-Lapu killed him in Filipinas, so a Spaniard (Elcano) was the 1st to go around the world. Magellan willingly gave the glory to Spain, NOT Portugal. Again, Alexander's men were in the Persian Gulf almost 2,000 years before Portuguese were there. Carthaginians were in northwestern sub-Saharan Africa almost 2,000 years before Portuguese were there. The Chinese and Arabs were in eastern Africa's coasts before Portugal got there. India, China, Japan, Southeast Asia... all were discovered by non-Portuguese like Marco Polo. Spain had way more REAL discoveries like Easter Island and the Amazon. :-) Also, Portugal's mastery at sea was thanks to Genoese and Venetians hired by Prince Henry.
3
@iibugii9353 Administration does not equal ownership. A Spaniard with more Spanish blood than German, and just as much German as Portuguese, ruled all Portuguese things, so A Spaniard in th Spanish capital owned everything Portuguese, making it all Spanish property. The Portuguese were never equals in the Union, but were allowed to believe so so they would shut up. How could they be equals when the SPanish had to KILL many Portuguese to take their throne, and the capital was in Spain? The Scots are not the equals of the English either. The capital is London, not Edinburgh.
3
@JA-yk7wv "Actually portugal was the reason to the end of the venician kingdom." Extreme ingratitude to Venice which along with Genoa is why the Portuguese Empire ever began in the first place. Prince Henry "the Navigator" hired Italians and acquired their maps, and then "coincidentally" the Portuguese Empire was born. It was Italians who discovered Cape Verde and around the Afrian coast there, not Portuguese who were allowed to mop the floors of the ships.
3
@iibugii9353 "the Natives were already there" Moving the goalpost from the fist Europeans or Old Worlders to discover a land, to the first humans to arrive. No one said Spaniards were the first humans to arrive. Strawman fallacy.

@fgsaramago IQ is racist pseudo--science. The test questions are determined by subjective WHIM, not the scientific method. It also ironically retardedly takes out of context since it uses a one-size-fits-all approach when not everyone needs to know or be familiar with all fo the same things to be smart. And an Inuit language is more complex than your drunk Spanish, which means that Eskimos are smarter than you, by your illogic. :) I also don't believe your assertion but it's irrelevant anyway. Chinese is complex in some thigns but simple in others like grammar. So when you say "more complex," that doesn't mean anything especially 'cause you proved nothing. You're not in the business of proof. No one idolizing Portugal ever is.
3
@eugen4842 Yes, Brazil has more poor people than the Spanish world. Congratulations. :-) Brazilians should say thanks to Spain for discovering America. Portuguese fanatics claim Portugal did first, but that's the same as saying that they let Spain get the lion's share of the best in the west. Nonsense. Their fable makes Portugal idiotic. How ironic they unwittingly reduce it to insanity to try to make it look better. :-)
3
@thefifthempire1529 It is irrelevant that Spanish America has many poor people since I never denied that. The person acting as if Portugal has greater glory than Spain in South America ignored the poverty factor which makes his advantage not much of an advantage. :-) I'm not blaming Portugal nor Spain for poverty. Poor people have always been the majority. It's not like every Incan subject wore gold jewelry. (Note I'm not saying Incas had all of S.Am.)
3
@user-ry6ey8gq3t Took a while for France to rule it, and it didn't last for long. At first Spain beat the shit out of France and captured the French King. :-) Unfortunately, the poison of liberalism of Napoopleon still contaminates Spain and Portugal and all of Europe which is why they are all bending over for the homosexual agenda. But the liberals are so insane they also import Islam to undo the Reocnquistas, so it's just a matter of time until the Muslims do away with your imaginary rights.
2
Lots of Portuguese tears in my thread proving Portugal discovered less than Spain.
2
@ministryoftruth8499 Quality over quantity. Spanish explorers in the Pacific did better than the Portuguese in the Persian Gulf where Alexander's men explored first among Europeans, or along eastern Africa where Arabs eplored first, AND the Chinese. Eventhe ancient Romans were around Somalia! LOL! The Ministry of hiding the truth failed.
2
@plusultra4961 It was... until Spain overshadowed them. The British overshadowed the Spanish only in technology, and that was thanks to the Spanish Empire without which the English wouldn't have had what they acquired in the world. Their Brutish Empire was smaller than Spain's during the Iberian Union when the Spanish Emperor monopolized far more of earth, but those hypocrite pirates count oceans of sand, while saying oceans don't count.
2
"without end" ... Sure. The biggest ocean in the universe was Spanish, never Portuguese. :-) All Portuguese oceans were Spanish in the Iberian Union. A Spanish Emperor with mostly Spanish blood in a Spanish capital ruled all that was Portugal's. He seized Portugal thanks to Moors doing a lot of killing first, and then the Spanish and mercenearies killing many Portuguese who resisted. So there was no equality but he let the Portuguese believe they had it because the best slaves think they're free. I won't read more. I have my own thread dealing with the Portuguese there.
2
@marcosalexandre6613 Spain didn't betray its own religion like Porkugal did, so it had to fight Protestants. Porkugal had to carry its own weight but it was too much for them to deal with pirates. Porkugal was brought down by their allies, the English. The fools were kicked out of Africa and their trade routes by the African Ultimatum. That's what they get for siding with pirates against Spain.
2
@hugoaxe1625 I didn't say that Marco Polo went to Brazil. Strawman fallacy. Won't read more.
2
@senakaweeraratna741 Is killing a Nazi in WW2 justified? Then why would forcing them to clean dishes (slavery) be wrong? Portugal destroyed satanic temples? Awesome! Gautama contradicted himself, saying to desire non-desire. He said to have compassion on other living things yet he never stopped the genocide in his stomach where millions of innocent microbes were burned alive by his body. He valued his 1 human life above COUNTLESS. That's just selfish and shows an attachment to the material, proving further he was not enlightend as he claimed. He is always depicted under a tree with serpents because he was of the devil whose symbol is the serpent.

@tiagocorreia5878 Another Portuguese who pretends Portugal did it on its own when Prince Henry the hirer of navigators from Italy would have had the humility to recognize Italian contributions leading to the caravel. Who discovered the Cape Verde islands: Italians or Portuguese? Italians did. Get educated. :-)
2
@tiagocorreia5878 Sorry. You'll have to whine a little louder. I can't hear your crying over the sound of the Spanish waves of the Pacific Ocean which is bigger than all Portuguese holdings combined. :-)
2
@pedrocsantos8 Are you saying Lapu Lapu was scapegoated for Magellan's death?
2
@pedrocsantos8 Sorry. I can't hear you over the waves of the Spanish Empire which far ounumber all other empires' waves including those of your boyfriend you cling to after being betrayed by them.
2
@fgsaramago Proto-Spain, Spain. Same thing. You're not teaching me anything.
2
@iibugii9353 False equivalency fallacy since Vikings did not know about 99% of América whereas Arabs knew about most of eastern Africa, and so did the Chinese Zheng He! LOL! Alexander, just by asking Porus about other Indian kingdoms, discovered India nearly 2,000 years before Portugal! LOL! And Marco Polo probably was able to see maps of Japan the Chinese had. You think the Chinese had no maps of their own, and that Portugal was the only nation to map out Asia? LOL! China and Cambodia had a long history together.
2
@JA-yk7wv "copid by venice." Yes, the ships that Venetians and Genoese helped Portugal to create were also used by non-Portuguese. That's extreme ingratitude to Venice which along with Genoa is why the Portuguese Empire ever began in the first place. Prince Henry "the Navigator" hired Italians and acquired their maps, and then "coincidentally" the caravel was born, and thereby the Portuguese Empire was born. It was Italians who discovered Cape Verde and around the Afrian coast there, not Portuguese who were allowed to mop the floors of the ships.
2
@samuellucena3835 Because Lose-itanians belittled my people elsewhere, so I have to rain on their unsightly pride parades where they self-aggrandize inflating their egos as if their empire was greater than Spain's when it was swallowed by the Spanish one in the Iberian Union under the Spanish Emperor in the Spanish capital. Now tell me: why are you so salty that I'm defending Spain from liars who pretend that "discovering" India Alexander already knew about is greater than discovering América?
2
@eugen4842 It ISN'T "out of nowhere." Defending Spain from the Portuguese who belittle my people is a crime to the Portuguese. "Crazy" is your crying for nothing. Just admit your trophy is also a mark of shame. More people means more poor people. LOL! YOu had no logic to respond to my post. You have nothing.
2
@NeoZeta Mentiroso.
2
@eugen4842 Your message reading between the lines is that Portuguese has greater glory in South America. That's an attack on Spanish, and I defended Spanish, but you have a tantrum 'cause I turned your advantage into a disadvantage! LOL! Impotent Portugal zealots.
2
@eugen4842 Cúlpales a tus prójimos en otros lugares en el pasado por haberse cagado sobre mi pueblo en su soberbia extrema. Los estoy poniendo en su lugar donde sea que los encuentre. Tú tienes el mismo espíritu de orgullo que ellos. No eres inocente. Te corregí y llloras porque te corregí. Sé humilde y acepta la verdad.

@matsu4010 Tagalog is still spoken in Filipinas. I plan to learn it. Spain gave them chocolate and unity they never had before. The US gave them AIDS. Spain also destroyed the Brunei Empire which saved them frmo having to bow to a pagan cube 5 times a day. Coutnerfeit "Christianity" Mary-worshipping Catholicism is less oppressive.
2
@matsu4010 "that's like saying Natives can't speak their language because it's hard for other people, are you dnmb" Are you talking about how Portuguese sounds like drunk Spanish? Clarify your nonsense please.
2
@thefifthempire1529 " both of them did outstanding discoveries." Spain discovered new peole and lands never even heard of by Europeans before almost from the north pole to the south pole. The Portuguese "discovered" what Carthaginians, ancient Greeks, Macedonians Arabs, the Chinese and Marco Polo already knew about. For example, the ancient Greek Eratosthenes knew that the Indian Ocean was connected to the Atlantic. Portugal is overrated.
2
@matsu4010 "coping" with being of the people who had the biggest empire in history? You wish. The British are always said by many to be number 1 but that's a lie because they count only land when earth is more water than land. The hypocrites say deserts with no one in sight count, but not oceans with countless seafood opportunities and more profitable trade routes. During the Iberian Union, the Spanish Emperor ruled all Portuguese lands and seas, so the Spanish Empire monopolized most oceans, something the Brits culdnt' do with even one as a map of French islands in every ocean proves. :-)
2
@miguelsilva1446 No because "fanatic" implies "irrational." Correcting someone implying that Portugal has greater glory than Spain in South America is not being irrational but factual, taking the context of poverty into account. Irrational is these people insulting me for correcting them. Liars hate truth.
2
@matsu4010 So you're a hypocrite who counts mostly empty deserts but not mostly empty oceans. Earth is more water than land. Keep pretending to have a point.
2
Glad Islam will fix the liberalism cancer of Netherlands.
2
They probably assumed that Vinland was just an island like Greenland. To say Portugal knew first is to say that they willingly gave uup two huge continents to their hated rivals, and also the biggest ocean in the cosmos. Makes NO sense. That's like if Napoleon gave Louisiana to the Germans for free.

@Gloriaimperial1 Te invito a mi mapa inmenso y realístico de América para Age of Empires 2 HD que estoy haciendo donde está también toda África, Iberia, Italia, Francia, el sur de Inglaterra, Irlanda, el este de China, el norte de Filipinas, Hawaii, todo el Japón, la Isla de la Pascua y más.
2
Except América you never ruled, nor the majority of the Pacific. So "rule the world" is an exaggeration bigger than the Mongol Empire.
1
PS Nor the majority of Asia, nor the majority of Africa nor the majority of even Iberia.

@therealyami2 So lying is all right as long as it's a joke. Interesting and very low ethics there.
1
@therealyami2 Jokes about Jews are all right then no matter how racist and inaccurate? :-) "you're the one who's taking it too seriously" I never accused you of taking anything seriously. I can tell you're not to be taken seriously.

@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 Konnichiwa.

@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 Seas literally rising is obviously impossible by mere mortals' power, but "ruling the world" is something that is eventually going to happen, since after WW3, they wil say "The UN wasn't strong enough to keep the peace. We need a one world government."
1
@therealyami2 Afraid to answer my question. Checkmate. I got the joke a mile away. It's just not funny to see a lie in a joke. I'm familiar with Coldplay a bit because of my libtard ex-sister. Stop acting like you know me. The Portuguese claiming to have ruled mroe than they did offends me because I have to deal with Portuguese who claim their empire was greater than Spain's, and I have to remind them of how little they actually had. :-) During the Iberian Union, the entirety of the Port. Empire was owned by the Spanish Emperor who seized it BY FORCE at the cost of many Portuguese lives, so don't act like Portugal was an equal like some pretend.
1
@therealyami2 "..." Doesn't answer my question. You say "It's just a joke." even though the joke offends me because it's a lie the Portuguese make to self-aggrandize at Spain's expense. So my question is relevant because it's about an offesnive joke, but you're afraid to offend Jews, huh? So you have a double standard. :-) Jaque mate.
1
@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 NANI!????

Hernando Malinche Yeah. Listen to this guy. When you can't beat them, ignore them! :-) Crazy because....? That's just an AD HOMINEM fallacy. Malicious people.
1
Spanish swordsmen and gunmen beat the Japanese ronin (as in not just ANY samurais, but EXPERIENCED lordless samurais) joined with Chinese pirates at Cagayán. The Japanese had guns and artillery from the Lose-itanians, and outnumbered my people. Spain beat them anyway. ¡Y VIIIIIIIVA ESPAÑA! :-) ¡Olé!
1
@Reichsführer Sayori The Portuguese in the past have belittled my people, so now when I see the Portuguese self-aggrandize, I have to rain on their unsightly pride parade. Who cares that it's a joke? He's still inflating the Portuguese ego, and I want to remind them of reality so they stop acting superior to others especially when those others had the superior empire in size and glory AND discoveries. What land did Portugal discover that was not known about before? Very few. Marco Polo knew of China, and thereby Southeast Asia, Japan and Korea. Probably Philippines too, so I'm not a hypocrite. Alexander the Great's men sailed in the Persian Gulf before the Portuguese got there nearly 2000 years later. Carthage knew what was around Africa on the other side of Numidia. Romans traded with Somalis and Indians. Greeks named Ethiopia. Alexander knew about India very personally.
1
@pedrobotelho2265 How proud to pretend Portugal did that alone. Typical.
1
@pedrobotelho2265 No one said Asians weren't the first to discover America. Obviously we're talking about Europeans, as Vikings had only a little spot of the northeast coast of North America meaning that Vikings didn't know about 99% of América. Cape Verde was not discovered by the Portuguese per se but by Italians foremost. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoniotto_Usodimare "Antoniotto Usodimare or Usus di Mare (1416–1462) was a Genoese trader and explorer in the service of the Portuguese Prince Henry the Navigator. Jointly with Alvise Cadamosto, Usodimare discovered a great stretch of the West African coast in two known voyages in 1455 and 1456. They notably discovered the Cape Verde islands, and the Guinea coast from the Gambia River to the Geba River (in Guinea-Bissau)" Without Italians, Portugal wouuld be nothing, but the Portuguese are conceited and pretend to have done everything alone.
1
@pedrobotelho2265 Spain was fighting half the world. Portugal didn't save itself at Aljubrrota. The English saved their girlfriend they later evicted with the African Ultimatum, when they had taken your trade routes! :-) That's what you get for siding with pirates against Spain.
1
@pedrobotelho2265 If Portugal was soooo strong then why couldn't Portugal conquer Spain when Portugal was the richest nation in the world? You had the money for enough mercenaries to make up for the lack of manpower. Too scared of Spain, obviously.
1
@pedrobotelho2265 Did I ever deny that Italians helped make Spain imperial? No. Do Portuguese act like they did their empire alone? Yes.
1
@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 How am I embarrassing myself when you're a Japanese guy pretending to be Portuguese¿ I plan to learn Japanese. It is a cooler language than Spanish, but not cooler than Latin. Portuguese is drunk Spanish. :-) LOL!
1
@pedrobotelho2265 "The English sent less than a thousand men to Aljubarrota." The Spanish sent less than a thousand men to help Natives against Aztecs. "They didn't save anyone, the Portuguese did the majority of the work alone." Spaniards didn't save from Aztecs; the Native Americans beat the Aztecs mostly alone. (supposedly) If you've ever seen a map of the Aztec Empire around Tlaxcala, you'd know that the Aztecs were on the verge of conquering them. But Spaniards came in the nick of time. :-) The Portuguese are like the Aztecs, and the Brits who imported superior bow technology are like the Spanish in Mesoamérica. "And Spain had help from the French btw" Yes. I am humble so I never deny contributions to Spanish glory from Italians and others, unlike how the conceited Lose-itanians pretend they created the caravel in a vacuum when Italians made it possible. :-)
1
@pedrobotelho2265 Strawman fallacy: "Iberians did nothing." I neer said that. Dishonest to move the goalposts like that, cheater. "Italians that didn't even exist as a nation" Another strawman fallacy. I never said there was a politically united Italy. I said they're Italians because Genoa and Venice are Italian places. LOL! How desperate you are to have a point. Portugal beating Turks is fine with me. Cube-worshipping is crazy. But so is bowing to graven images God forbids, like of a white "Jesus" or "Mary."
1
@pedrobotelho2265 So you don't know the difference between an AD HOMINEM fallacy and an insult. I committed no AD HOMINEM fallacy because that is not just ANY insult, but a personal criticism or attack INSTEAD of dealing with the opponent's arguments, but I easily dismantled yours, so I have the right to mock mockers.
1
@user-ry6ey8gq3t PS When Germany raped France and bombed the shit out of London, Spain smiled.

@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 Stop embarrassing yourself says the guy who pretends he shares in the glory of the Portuguese Empire when he is of the people who were HUMILIATED by the Portuguese. You suffer from Stockholm Syndrome. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Fukuda_Bay "The cannons wrought such havoc on the frail Japanese boats that the Hirado forces, after losing 3 ships and over 70 men, in addition to over 200 wounded, withdrew to their base crestfallen. The battle lasted two hours.[15] The victorious carrack, suffering only 8 lives lost,[1] set sail for Macao at the end of November." The Brazilian nationality doesn't mean anything. I was born in Honduras in the puny Spanish minority yet I cannot take the glory of the Lencas or Mayans who were there. The glory of the empire on which the sun never set will have to do. :-)

@commiebatman2078 You, like everyone else here, has not refuted any of my arguments. You all just run away while beating your chests. Such absurdity. :-) You're just a paper tiger pretending to have power. You have NONE! Your malicious AD HOMINEM fallacy about seeing nature is proof you are irrational.
1
Hernando Malinche Level of intelligence to call someone crazy: a little brat's. Level of intelligence to prove it: For you, impossible.
1
@commiebatman2078 And you're not one to talk about "cringe" when your username has "Batman" in it which means you love a gay-in-the-non-happy-way devil horns guy who humps Robin and enters his bat cave! LOL! Too much anime? A bit of Toonami and Pokémon are basically it. Spain beat samurais at Cagayán. I'm no weeaboo.
1
Some here call me an idiot because they ASSUME I didn't know Marcelo Izukawa was joking when he said Porkugal ruled the world. I never said he wasn't joking, so everyone who call me an idiot is ironically "not smart" shall we say. :-) LOL!
1
@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 You love the Portuguese Empire like it is your heritage when it's not. Your heritage is the Japanese Empire's glory, which is great. That Japan doesn't accept you doesn't make you not Japanese racially. I never set foot in Spain yet I am more Spanish than the king of Spain 'cause he is of a French dynasty, and his race is Germanic, of invaders to my ancestral homoeland, for I am Iberian of the original stock as I can tell from deduction. I got banned from a racist website (where I joined to prove them wrong, called theapricity) because I kept showing the Celtic and Germanic Spaniards and other idiots barbarian invasion maps of the Goths and others, which proved they're not true Spaniards (natives of HISPANIA including the ancient Lusitanians).
1
@commiebatman2078 I hate reddit because they banned me for saying in the Age of Empires "community" that Huns did not have atheism as the game claims, since they actually worshipped Tengri. Atheist fanatics can't accept reality. Glad Portugal and Spain were creationist when they were glorious. Pretty much all great warriors in history were creationists. Vikings would disdain the atheist feminazis in Scandinavia today.
1
@commiebatman2078 I didn't correct him. I REMINDED the Portuguese and their fanboys of how they aren't as great as they portray themselves to be. This nuanced difference is too much for you to grasp without me having to explain it to you. But now that I gave you training wheels, maybe you can get out of that gay Batman costume and get on the bike and use it without falling this time. :-)

@commiebatman2078 "beyond pathetic" says someone who wastes his Friday night joining a bullying bandwagon to belong to a group like an animal with a herd mentality, and a group which WRONGLY JUMPS TO THE CONCLUSION that I didn't get the joke at first, when I always did. I did not correct this guy. I REMINDED the Portuguese Empire lovers that they're not as great as they portray. This thread is a herd of cattle who refuse to think outside the box! LOL! And they try to trample me but I easily jump over the bulls and their bullshit like they do in Spain.

@iwasjustfollowingorders8068 "Get well" implies I have a problem, which is?... A veiled attack most likely, on your part. That would make your "honestly wish you a good day"... hypocrisy.

@dp_wynn5392 I'm Spanish. I always explore outside. Just yesterday I learned that Spaniards were in Virginia before the British. LOL! I got a link to a video (by a non-Spaniard) proving that Spaniards discovered Hawaii before the English did.

@dp_wynn5392 You're insulting me for defending Spain. Think about that.

"Most" You mean some of western Europe and Russia.

@fgsaramago You still did not explain the insanity of the notion of Portugal ignoring América for others to acquire first. They knew Castilla, and later, "Spain" when it united with Aragón, was in the Atlantic looking for glory, but the Portuguese just let them have the greatest glory of the Atlantic! LOL! Crazy. Your fable is just the Portuguese way to cope with NOT discovering the most and the best. What good is "discovering" Arabia others knew about? Or Ethiopia Greeks knew about? Or Somalia Romans traded around? Or India Alexander knew about? Or China, Japan and southeast Asia Marco Polo knew about? Or eastern Africa's coasts Arabs and the Chinese already knew about? Or that the Indian Ocean is connected to the Atlantic which ancient Greece already knew about (Eratosthenes)? Compared to the megacontinent América, Portugal's glory is pathetic. You got Brazil in a scramble to get something there after you heard of Columbus' discovery for Spain. He also discovered Venezuela before you got Brazil. Stop lying, Lose-itanians. You're only making your country look worse. And Vikings did not discover 99% of América. Spaniards had the lion's share of discoveries, such as Cuba, La Española, Puerto Rico, Bermuda, Yucatán, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panamá, Colombia, Perú... so many REAL discoveries unlike "Hey guys! We're so great 'cause we got to where Carthaginians went to nearly 2,000 years ago! Ghana is very hot though!" And you did it with Italian help, bu you never thank them for that, ingrates. You're in a cult where your god is a Portugal far more glorious than it actually was.
1
@fgsaramago PS "Why would Portugal announce to the rival that they had some free real estate there??" I never said that, liar. Strawman fallacy.
1
Oh. My bad on Easter Island. It was a Dutchman who discovered it apparently. I assumed Spain did since Chile owns it now.
1
@fgsaramago Nonsense 'cause if the Portuguese funded Magellan's voyage, and they found lands that would have to go to Spain as per the treaty, then all the Portuguese would have had to do was not tell anyone about those lands. You're saying that Portugal willingly gave up being the first nation to go aroudn the world. So you say Portugal was insane.
1
@fgsaramago "Everyone" is an AD POPVLVM fallacy and a lie. Most people are ignorant, and regurgitate claims. Magellan RENOUNCED his Portugugese nationality, but you're saying, very arrogantly, that you know his identity better than he did. Born Portuguese, and died a member of Spain. :-) Glorious for Spain. Elcano went around the world. That makes him first fiddle. :-)
1
@fgsaramago "inferiority complex" You're the one with the nation that had the MUCH SMALLER empire, the one that my people's conquered with Morish help. Felipe II killed many Portuguesse to take your country, inferior one. The booty in Lisbon was sweet. Thanks for collecting it for us!
1
@fgsaramago Prince Henry the "Navigator" hired Italians to teach his peope how to rule the waves. He also acquired maps from Italians. Then the caravel was born, thanks to Italians, and Portuguese money. Venetians and Genoese such as Alvise Cadamosto and Antoniotto Usodimare discovered Cape Verde. The Portuguese were allowed to mop the floors of the ships. "It's a Portuguese achievement" NO mention of Italian contributions, which makes you an (evil) ingrate. Disgusting pride Lose-itanians got. I'm glad, not proud, to be Spanish. Pride is a sin according to yuur own people's empire. You're going to hell. So is the other narcissist.
1
@fgsaramago Aljubarrota was an ENGLISH victory thanks to the novelty longbows just as the French knights had earlier been humiliated by the new things at the Battle of Crécy. Letting the English make you their bitch didn't turn out too well for you, did it? :-) ¡Ja ja jaa a!...
1
@ministryoftruth8499 "Leif Erikson or the Polynesians?" He found the equivalent of one leaf of the huge tree, so most of América was not discovered by Vikings who failed to keep the little dot they did get. IF a blind man touches a hair on an elephant, does this mean he discovered the elephant? Show me where Polynesians got to in América. Make me laugh more. At most they landed in some Pacific coast, and then went back, driven so by the hostile Natives, or they were assimilated and genetically vanished. Spain's discovery was almost total, and began globalization which Portugal wished it had, as it had only semi-globalization. :-) El sol no se ponía en nuestro imperio graciasa Dios. En el tuyo SIEMPRE se ponía el sol porque carecías como un tercio del panorama.
1
@fgsaramago The Treaty of Tordesillas was in 1494. Before then, Portugal supposedly knew about América, yet you say they willingly gave it up for Spain to take or some other nation eventually. What a joke! LOL! Deluded Portuguese trying to cope with inferiority by lying that they discovered América first.
1
@fgsaramago PS Liar. You contradicted yourself: "virtually every time in battle Portugal was severe outnumbered and won everytime, nonetheless." from virtually every time... to every time. Make up your mind. Which lie are you going to stick with? Recall the Battle of Alcantara when you got whooped ("4,000 dead or captured") and a Spaniard with as much German blood as Portuguese controlled everything Portuguse, and Spaniards must have annexed the Portuguese ladies whose husbands were killed in Morocco 'cause of their stupid pride. A lot of Sebastians here.
1
@fgsaramago "Virtually every time" means there are exceptions. Then you move the goalpost to "every time" which means there are NO exceptions. You contradict yourself in a nuanced way. Nuance doesn't mean you didn't contradict yourself. False dichotomy fallacy, Lose-itanian. You're ignorant of logic, not just history like Italians making the caravel possible, and thereby Portugal relevant. Yet this fallacious Lose-itanian says I'm not intelligent. The conceited like you burn forever. Liars burn forever. Your own empire says so. Repent.
1
@fgsaramago What a hypocrite: "Magellan used the knowledge he got in Portugal, from Portuguese scholars." Portugal used the knowledge it got from Italians. "It's a Portuguese achievement, the Spanish just fronted the money." It's an Italian achievement. The Portuguese just fronted the money. Spaniards always thank the Italian Columbus for his discovery. I've never sen a Portuguese thank Italians for theri discovery of Cpae Verde among their many contributions. Yet another reason I thank God I'm Spanish and not Portuguese.
1
@fgsaramago Portugal: "I'm free from Spain! OH, I love to be free!" England: "Hey, BITCH! I have to shorten your leash. Get the FUCK out of Africa!" Portugal: "But I let you caress my trade routes! How could you do this to me! I LUVVV YOU!!! 4EVER!!!!" England: "I was just pretending to like you since I needed a stepping stone. Now I can jump off, which means you can SINK! LOL!" Spain: "LOL!" China: "LOL!" Africans: "LOL!" Indians: "LOL!"
1
@vitor santos I never said Portugal never discovered anyting. Yet you call me ignorant. LOL! Most of its so-called "discoveries" were known about long before Portugal was even born, such as Mozambique by Zheng He and Arabs and the Far East by Marco Polo. YAWN
1
@pedrocsantos8 El Canno was no traitor. Magellan betrayed Portugal, but you totally dishonest hypocritese want to claim him as one of your own! LOL! So desperate for an advantage because you have so few!
1
@pedrocsantos8 If Portugal got Canada before Spain got to the Bahamas, then why would Portugal let Spain get the lion's share of América? Your lie makes no sense. Portugal's empire was far smaller than Spain's and become TOTALLY PART OF SPAIN'S during the Iberian Union.

@vitor santos Spain got to Brazil first since it was a Spanish explorer in the Amazon first. He heh! :-)

@vitor santos "You people had your chances to have my attention. I'm done here. You're all liars. Wallow in yourwillful ignorance." I forgot I said that. Back to ignoring the hellbound liars again.

@lxportugal9343 NO. Wikipedia says: "Magellan and Serrão participated in the conquest of Malacca. After the conquest their ways parted: Magellan was promoted, with a rich plunder and, in the company of a Malay he had indentured and baptized, Enrique of Malacca, he returned to Portugal in 1512 or 1513." Malacca and the Philippines aren't next to each other. That sea between them was the part Magellan never completed. Also, if his slave went around the world because of SEPARATE journeys, then I walked across South America in my lifetime of walking added up.

"You people had your chances to have my attention. I'm done here. You're all liars. Wallow in yourwillful ignorance." I keep forgetting I said this. I argue on too many threads every week to keep track.

@plusultra4961 Mira mi mapa inmenso y realístico de América para Age of Empires 2 en un vídeo demostrándolo y cómo conseguirlo. Yo recreé el Imperio español ahí, y en mi escenario tuve que luchar contra Francia, Inglaterra, los incas, los aztecas y los japoneses. Bueno, los mayas conquistaron el Japón. Yo tuve que echar a los otros europeos de América y África.

@nunyabiznes33 I don't know much about it 'cause I did not delve into most of the details yet, but I think I read long ago about the Brunei Empire trying to get Manila before Spain arrived, and the "moros" of Mindanao were supported by the Muslims of Borneo.

Spain was the first to write that down in the west. Portugal goes to Qesm. "We are the first to discover this island among Europeans!" Alexander the Great's ghost: Who awakened me to correct them!!?

@iibugii9353 "You're not even Spanish you're from Honduras." So you can't tell the difference between race (my race is Iberian of the original stock) and nationality or place of birth. I was born Honduras, have US citizenship, live in Asia but my race is Iberian. You're like a Chinese guy saying "You can't be South African! You're not black! LOL! Ignorance abounds here. The Portuguese disdained my people, so now i put them in their place.
1
@Red Platinum Gamer So you believe Felipe II's capital was Lisbon, and that he was more Portugues than Spanish by blood? If you want to educate others, you need to know what you're talking about in the first place.

Oh. I forgot I said I wouldn't read more. Back to not reading more lies and the broadcasting of Portuguese ignorance.

Which became Spanish during the Iberian Union. LOL! I won't read more. I dealt with the Poruguese in my own thread already.

@Andrew-px9fj Portugal finished its Reconquista earlier because it had less to conquer. Consult a map, and compare the southernmost parts of Spain VS Porkugal. The Spanish south is also wider, meaning more work to be done, so don't boast in their having been earlier to explore more. What they DID explore was explored by others before them. LAME! The Vikings neverexplored the Caribbean and most of what Spain would discover. The reason Porkugal exists is so that the Synagogue of Satan can keep Spain in check more easily. That's also why Ireland still has some freedom, and why the US has been letting China get more powerful. You know nothing.
1
@Andrew-px9fj I like that you edited your comment in frustration, you emotionally-driven hypocrite. Nice Porkogeese name you got there, Andrew. "you are really that deluded lmao. I live how you mention spain had a wider area to conquer but let out how they also had more population/resources to kinda equate." I like how you left out that Aragón was focused on eastern lands, so it was much more than just Iberia being conquered. I like how you omit the fact that teh English crusaders dropped by to conquer Lisbon for you. :-) The boyfriend had to help his girlfriend, whom he would abuse later with the African Ultimatum telling her to GTFO. LOL! But look how the Portuguese still cling to the racist pirates who trampled on them! NO SELF-RESPECT DESPITE A HUGE EGO! That's Lose-itaninas for ya! LOL! "Also conviniently you leave out that Spain did try to subjugate Portugal a couple times and failed." I thought I pointed out that both countries were (and are) Templar-run, so any war's outcome between them would hve been predetermined by the shadow government. I know you like your PG Disneyesque version of history, gullible child, but I proved what I said in my series crushign the British ego where I demonstrated the superiority of the Spanish Empire's size plus morality (not that it was good; all empires were evil but none as evil as the British except the Murkan offshoot thereof). "Funny how Ireland is better now than ever ," Ireland doesn't know how many genders there are, they're drunkards, they value English more than their own language, have a very divided island, and they import Islam. You were saying? Now let me educate you further. Fun fact: The ones who invented the caravel were Italians. It wasn't a coincidence that after Princess Henrietta the non-Navigatoress hired Italian experts to teach Portuguese loers how to be winners at sea, that the caravel was created. Spaniards always thank Columbus. We aren't ignrates like the concieted girlfriends of the racist pirates. Your turn, loser.
1
@Andrew-px9fj "(main through unintentional spread of deseases)" Again you broadcast how little you know. If smallpox were as important a factor as you make it out to be in your regurgitation of anti-Spanish propaganda, then Hernán Cortés could NOT have conquered the Aztec Empire, for the key to his success was not just the key of greater technology, but the other one of MANY NATIVE AMERICAN ALLIES who HATED the Aztecs and PREFERRED the Spanish (just as the Spanish were preferred by Native Seminoles fleeing the British to Florida, and just as the Spanish were preferred by blacks fleeing the British to Florida; do you see a pattern here?). How could those natives have even been able to stand up let alone fight let alone win the war, if they were crippled and dying from smallpox? You don't question what you're taught. Your mind is weak!

@MauricioRomanov Corrupt kings? Typical of someone who believes in dumbocracy, inhererntly and inextricably a bandwagon fallacy, to say that monarchy must by definition be corrupt! I'd much rather live under King David than subject to the whims of the mob, but you... are of the herd mentality. And there are no kings anymore. Haven't been any for probably a century or more ever since the Jews did away with them primiarily by their puppet Napoopleon. You, like pretty much everyone else here, know nothing.
1
@MauricioRomanov "apparently you don't know your own King (I am assuming you are spanish), king whose father abdicated because his corruption was uncovered." I don't care about celebrity drama other than the recent feminazi against the recent drug-addict who starred in the movie about pirates focusing on the British (because they're pirates) and which had a great scene of a pirate shot dead by a Spaniard. LOL! I call that man a celebrity because he's not a true king. You are gullible, so you judge superficially, but a true king has the power of a king which means THE FINAL WORD, which he NEVER HAD! He was a pathetic watered-down version of a king's prince, not even of a king! Even les sthan a prince, actually! The Queen of England who is now dead and in hell was also a fraud. She was more of a jester than a queen. About the same power as Burger King. :-) Spain and Brutain are dumbocracies, which precludes monarchy. You can't have both, silly. As Jesus said, no man can serve two masters. He will despise one. Dumbocracies despise their monarchs. "You severely lack education" FIU graduate. Continue. "if you think napoleon wanted to abolish monarchies considering the fact he himself was a monarch and not only a monarch. He ended the French revolution with his own hands by closing the parliament, also, he placed his family on different thrones across europe, including, one of the current monarchies, the swedish one is of french descent, they are descendants of a french general of Napoleon." Specious argument but it fails miserably since he accomplished what his Jewish masters sent their French poodle (or Italian mutt) to do: topple Gentile monarchies or at least undermine them by spreading the libtarded mentality of the bloody atheistic French Revolution! After Napoopleon, you had way more dumobracy in the world, and more people deciding to oppose monarchies. He spread the virus of liberalism which is why millions dont' even know how many genders there are! That shithead deserves utmost scorn. "About your assumption that I'm a republican: you couldn't be more wrong, I'm a monarchist for different reasons, better reasons than your I guess." Reasons you're afraid to declare becuase I'll scrutinize them and expose you.
1
@MauricioRomanov Your argument about Napoopleon's hypocrisy is as powerful as saying that since Washington owned slaves, that therefore he never preached for liberties nor rights for men. PS See my video proving slavery isn't wrong.

@Andrew-px9fj I didn't say that the Portuguese lacked Native allies, so that's a red herring fallacy. See my video of our debate.

@Andrew-px9fj "ohh poor guy templars decided the battle of aljubarrota as one example lmao." Yes, and they used the key of Welsh or English longbowmen to make it esier for Porkugal to win. The ENglish saved you. You didn't save yourselves. Porkugal is England's whore. Spain was its nightmare. Now Spain is its vacation spot because of the superior weather. "Also our very own first king was the son of a knight from french origins... Deal with it and cry in a corner." Why would I cry about that? Totally irrelevant. You can have Porkugal, because I don't want to be with the likes of you. "Yea I would say on Ireland account that whatever your gullible" You can't prove I'm gullible, but I proved you are, and you run away from my series proving the conspiracy, as you tacticly commit an argument from incredulity fallacy, because you are the one too gullible to question what you were taught. "Whats wrong you cant just get over the fact you guys could get Portugal?" I told you why Spain couldn't get it. I understand why, and I accept that. I don't care about modern Spain much anyway. It's gay, atheistic, feminazi, abortionist, and deserves destruction as does Porkugal. Can't you just get over the fact Spain has more honour than you since we don't bend over for the British? Can't you jsut get over the fact the Iberian Union was not equal because you were slaves of the Spanishh Emperor? Can't you just get over the fact that we discovered América, not you? Can't you just get over the fact that Portuguese is drunk Spanish? Cann't you just get over the fact that the English saved you; not you? Can't you just get over the fact that Spain was the 1st country to go around the world? Can't you just get over the fact that Spain's empire was far more glorious than yours, for yours was just part of the Spanish? Can't you just get over the fact that Italians made the caravel possible, not merely the Lose-itanians? Can't yuo just get over the fact that Italians discovered Cape VErde, not the Portuguese? Can't you just get over the fact that Carthage was in NW Africa before you? Can't you just get over the fact that Marco Polo knew about SOutheast Asia before Iberians got there? Can't you just get over the fact that the Spanish coming to the Far Eastfrom the east like the rising sun is way more epic than the Portuguese ariving from the south as washed up dirty barbarians? Can't you just get over the fact that Alexander's men sailed in the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean centuries before Porkugal was created? Can't you just get over the fact that Romans traded with Indians long before you including around Somalia? Can't you just get over the fact that the Moors saw you as a peripheral and less important land meaning they fought less to keep it as compared to Granada for example? Can't you just get over the fact that Spain got the lionn's share of América? Can't you just get over the fact that SPain discovered much more than you, including chocolate and potatoes and countless lands including many islands in the Pacific Ocean including Hawaii as I proved in my series on the overrated 2nd-biggest British Empire? Can't you just get over the fact that the SPanish Empire was the bigest, and only irrational hypocrites like you count deserts but not oceans with more resources and valuable trade routes? Cann't you just get over the fact that your allies betrayed you? Can't you just get over the fact that Spain would hav eeen a much better choice, and the glory for all Iberians would have been greater if not for yhour selfish independence experiment gone wrong? Can't you just get over the fact that you can't beat me on any point? I hae more under my sleeve. LaterI plan to respond to your pathetic attempts or cowardice. "You seems to have a complex of superiority and its showing how fragile you are lmao." Ridicculous hypocrite, you are doing the same thing as me but failing at it. You are trying to say Porkugal is better. You fail at every turn. You're just another statistic corpse in my path behind me. "As of know and the most part Im glad both Portugal and Spain remained in good relation and despite your bs I consider the spanish as our brothers." You never proved I said anything wrong, snake. I am no brother to liars like you. I haven o pride, but am glad to be Spanish . Your pride is a sin, and you will pay.

@hugoaxe1625 Morocco is older than Portugal. Irrelevant. "portugal have descovery most part of the world" Extreme lie. Portugal barely discovered ANYTHING! Arabia, Ethiopia, India, China, Southeast Asia, Japan, sub-Saharan Africa on the west AND east coasts, the fact that the Atlantic is connected to the Indian Ocean, etcetera, were all known before Portugal "discovered" them, known by ancients or Marco Polo or the Chinese or Arabs or Carthaginians or Alexander the Great's people, respectively.

@senakaweeraratna741 Hinduism's reincarnation doctrine justifies the caste system, justifies oppression against the poor, justifies blaming them for their poverty "'cause they had to have deserved it for previous lives' mmisdeeds!" Hinduism blames poor Indians for being poor. That's just messed up. Hinduism puts cows above women and above men. It is unjust, so when Hindu temples are destroyed, it is the same as destroying a symbol of evil.

@tiagocorreia5878 Con esa parte de la canción no estoy de acuerdo porque la España moderna es un país liberal o sea una mierda como Portugal también. Un país que asesina más fetos que lo que hizo Cartago es un país que merece la destrucción total. Yo escapé de EEUU por la misma razón.

@pedrocsantos8 So ironic the guy with the Porkugal flag as his blindfold accuses me of being factious when Porkugal exists because it wanted to be its own faction. :-)
1
@tiagocorreia5878 The caravel was thanks to Italians, not so much the Portuguese the king of whom HIRED Genoese and Venetians experts to teach the Portuguese how to be masters at sea. Then, coincidentlaly, the caravel was born. Spaniards always thank Italians. The Portuguese thank no one. Such narcissists.
1
@tiagocorreia5878 He was in Malacca but there is a section between Malacca and Filipinas which Magellan never traverse, so he never went around the world if you add up different expeditions which is cheating anyway or else you run a marathon by adding up all of the times you ran in your life. That's not how it works.

@condedooku9750 Hey. I finished my colossal realistic map of the western hemisphere for Age of Empires 2 HD in case you like that game, and want to destroy the Portuguese Empire and the British. Soon I will probably make a video of the completed work, and since you defend my people from scorners, you deserve it for free. Others will have to do a good video to get it.

@tiagocorreia5878 Italians discovered Cape Verde and the Guinea coast. What was that you said about Portuguese being the "best pilots"? LOL!!!

@condedooku9750 My latest upload shows how the map is. I finally finished it.

@Yusef_Hakam "u just here in the comments of this vid to talk shit about portugal?" Yes. :-) I used to love Portugal, but then the Portuguese treated my people as if we were nothing. So I put them in their place. Type in "Why Portugal is INFERIOR to Spain." :-) Their empire was mostly coastal, but they did own the Indian Ocean, which made it bigger than the Mongol Empire probably: LOL! Iberian glory is great.

@bconni2 Right after hiring Italian experts at sea, the caravel was born, and you wish that were a coincidence due to pride in ingratitude. In that case, Japan got its empire without thanks to European expertise, right? If Italians were no good in the Atlantic, why did the Portuguese hire them? Checkmate. Also proving you wrong were the Italians Cadamosto & Usodimare who discovered Cape Verde and the Guinea coast. See my video "Portuguese 'discoveries' are a joke." Are you Portuguese or Brazilian?

@bconni2 {{{""Portugal played it safe".? what make believe, pretend sources are you referencing. ?}}} You dishonestly hid the rest of what I said which answers your willfully ignorant question. Spoiler: Any maps of the Portuguese Empire are my sources.

@TheCagamerda You ignored the facts I gave, and dismissed them as "theories." How dishonest. "nobody cares" except you who complain that I care because you care to hide the fact that Spain was better than Portugal in almost every way.

@TheCagamerda "I couldn't care less" yet you made two comments proving how much you really care. Actions speak louder than words.

@filhodarosa7512 "For you to call one nation Superior and another inferior show how you fail to question what this means and that this may have different meanings during different historical periods." I never denied that Portugal was the best at first. That was due to geography. The southernmost part of what is now Portugal is not as far south as Andalucía. This meant that Portugal was able to finish the Reconquista earlier. And with its, what, 200-year head start, it achieved... less. "Manpower." But look at the British in North America. The US was made in two centuries from sea to shinging sea. So Portugal has no excuse for not going inland similarly. Instead, they kept it safe along the coasts for the most part. Hence Africa referred to as the "dark" continent for centuries until the French and British did mos inland exploration. I mean, last I checked, it's called Lake Victoria for a British queen, not a Portuguese one. So while Portugal was greater at first, in the big picture, it was indeed overall inferior, and this is something I don't sai out of the blue, but as a response to being disdained by the Portuguese online whom you call trolls, but they are not playing since thy really DO believe Portugal was and is always better. :-) I mean... it's the same as people in China or the US claiming their own nation is the best evuh. But don't worry. The Spanish flag is not my blindfold. I hate modern Spain. It's a liberal shithole; a disgrace to what was once exceedingly glorious by the grace of God. And I'm not proud to Spanish, but glad. Pride is a sin. All we have is from above. And the Almighty takes it from us due to prid,e which is why the US is in decline and about to be deestroyed. If I were PROUD instead of just glad, to be Spanish, I would nnot say this: Spain was evil for the Inquistion murdering thousands. Columbus and Magellan were rejected by Portugal. They chose to serve Spain. Spain therefore gets their glory. I never denied Spain depended on Portugal. I'm just saying Portugal didn't do it alone like many Portuguese pretend in their conceit.
1
@filhodarosa7512 I didn't say all Portuguese are like that. Hence: " like many Portuguese pretend." The coasts had malaria too, so that's not an excuse. Brits ET AL did not concentrate in the middle of Africa because that is not a strategically-important place for business as opposed to South Africa. It's not because of malaria inland being any more dangerous than along the coasts. Same mosquitos. Same thing. If the Portuguese went inland throughout Africa, show me a clear map of what they owned then, because their linguistic legacy is puny such as in Guinea-Bissau, and I'd have to take you at your word, but that would be gullible, and if the Portuguese took Lake Victoria and the southern Nile, they would have fought the Turks in the Nile. Can you show battles and activities there that are proven history? The Portuguese were in Ethiopia but that's more to the southeast of the relevant Nile area where they would have come into conflict with the Turks. Since Portugal was mostly limited to the coasts in Asia, then in Africa, mostly coastal presence would also be expected as the norm especially considering that Portugal cared way more for Asia than Africa. Bigger markets. Better products. So why would Portugal put most of its energy into African expansion when what it REALLY wanted was Asian lands? While sailing along the coasts was and is dangerous, the context was in comparison to crossing a huge ocean not knowinig if you're going to find land at any particular area; not knowing if you're even making any progress since maybe you're just sailing into starvation. With coasts, you have the option to resupply, get directions from locals if you can learn to communicate, find your way around better due to literal landmarks..... The familiar trade routes around Africa were safer than the unknown just as driving along a familiar narrow mountain highway is safer than driving in the middle of the night in a savannah with no map, no GPS, no knowledge of what exactly is up ahead, and not knowing if you have enough gas.
1
@filhodarosa7512 By the way, I plan to learn Brazillian Portuguese (it sounds nicer). Portugal's cool despite Spain being cooler. I once saw an epic image of a Portuguese ship on waves with Poseidon alongside it or something like that. Wish I could find it again.
1
@ZCBM98 "So 200 English longbowmen were enough to defeat an army of 30 000 castillians? lol" They were the crucial factor, just as a few Spaniards were the crucial factor in the fall of the Aztec EMpire despite being allied to many Natives who alone were not able to defeat the Aztecs. Why do you laugh when you run away from the many facts in my original post? You are routing at every turn. And where you chose to attack, you failed. :-) I go to sleep now.
1
@Tusiriakest You say I can't defend Spain from attacks. That's hypocrisy since you are defending Portugal from my attacks by saying you disagree... without refuting anything I said 'cause your side is full of paper tigers. Ignorance, and willful at that, outnumbers knowledge in this world. That's why you get more likes, especially in the English-speaking and therefore anti-Spanish part of youtube. The Black Legend misleads millions who don't realize the true genocidal maniacs were the British whose genocides the Portuguese are complilcit with by being allied with the perpetrators, and letting them use their trade routes. Spain wasn't just the first global empire. It was the BIGGEST in history, bigger than the British, but those hypocrites count their mostly empty deserts while saying seas don't count while then contradicting themselves further by singing "Hail, Britannia! Britannia rules the waves!" They ruled far less as a map of French islands in every ocean proves. They never monopolized even 1 ocean but Spain during the Iberian Union when it took over the Portuguese Empire monopolized most oceans in the universe! :-) HAIL IBERIA! IBERIA RULED MORE WAVES!
1
@ZCBM98 The Battle of Crecy when English longbowmen annihilated French knights occurred in 1346. The Battle of Aljubarrota when English longbowmen annihilated proto-Spanish knight occurred in 1385. You refuse to connect the dots because you're dishonest, like how you still turn a blind eye to the many facts in my original post proving Portugal to be inferior. "nationalistic" I hate modern Spain because it's a liberal shithole. A nationalist wouldn't say that. Spain was evil for the INquisition. A nationalist wouldn't say that. Your bow is faulty 'cause you always miss. Now's a good time to call for your English boyfriend to save you. :-) LOL! "shitpost" So defending Spain is shitty, but defendinng Portugal is not. HYPOCRITE. The Tlaxaltecans in some cases beat the Aztecs. Does this mean they did not need the Spanish as the key to victory? The Portuguese beat proto-Spain a few times. Does this mean they did not need the English as the key to victory? All Portuguese here have failed. Keep up your failures. It adds evidence to Portugal's inferiority.

This is the beginning of a response to the Galician "Johny Travolta" where I technically reply to my own original post because indirectly might be the only way to respond, seeing as how responding to HIS post always ends up with my post not sticking to the thread, and disappearing, as if he blocked me or something, since responses to others in other threads DOES leave permanent responses from me...

@fumassametall "iliberal" seems to be a spin of "illiterate" as if to be against sexual degenracy, mass murder of unborn children, undoing of the Reconquista and other liberal nonsense, were irrational. Liberals are liberated from the constraints of reason.

@fumassametall "idealized Castilian based past" I'm anti-Catholic my ignorant enemy. You don't know anything! LOL! I also never said Castilla should dominate. It's fine by me if Portugal united with Spain and dominated Iberia as long as the country were not a liberal shithole! So you missed again. And you're a stastistic of indoctrination. Europe always goes on pendulum swings from conservative to liberal. You can't think for yourself so you follow the crowd. I met Spaniards in Florida International University who were professors. All were liberals. I mean, you HAVE to be to be a cog in the liberal indoctrination machine that is US public schooling. They tried to make me an atheist in the uS but I questioned what I was taught so I didn't fall for the macro-evolution myth which modern Spain fell for. Take that British flag out of your mind. Macro-evolution is racist shit proven wrong by the fact that the mind is FREE to think ergo NOT A SLAVE TO PHYSICS ergo NOT PHYSICAL. So genetic evolution can never make a creature into a smarter or dumber type.

@fumassametall You fail to see that if a region of Portugal wants independence, that you'll have to support them or you're a hypocrite. And if a house wants independence, you'll have to give it to them. After all, some nations are micro-nations. :-) Anything else is hypocrisy.

@fumassametall Spain is mine more than yours because you're probably not even Spanish. By this I mean that the Suebi tribe settled in Galicia where you say you're from. They are INVADERS to my ancestral homeland. So go back to Poland! LOL! You fraud.

@fumassametall "mixed in the same paragraph without reason" So your best response is to run away from ALL of my arguments except 1, which you still failed to defeat anyway, and then NIT-PICK on ... of all things, FORMATTING PREFERENCES, you narcissist! LOL! OH NO! THE WORLD IS GOING TO END BECAUSE LOGIC WAS UNITED IN ONE PARAGRAPH INSTEAD OF PRESENTED MORE NEATLY SO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDDREN LIKE JOHNY HERE CAN READ WITHOUT TROUBLE! Hahahaha....! De nuevo te digo, germánico. ¡Regresa a Polonia de dónde vinieron tus ancestros invasores a mi tierra ancestral! ¡Ja jaajja!

@fumassametall "get some help" is a malicious AD HOMINEM fallacy. Get a logic class. Get a dose of humility. Well, humiliation in this case. (EDIT: An AD HOMINEM is not the same as merely an insult, as this troll later on accuses me of the former for doing the latter because he doesn't know anything. It is when you insult INSTEAD of logically dealing with the opponet's arguments, but I easily destroyed all arguments here except later incoming ones I won't read 'cause you had your chances.) Running away from arguments while insulting the victor is a tragic way to "spend" your Friday afternoon, Johnny. This is the one argument you DID address in pathetic fashion as always: "I would support them if their was a sufficiently large clamour for nationhood in some Portuguese region." But Johnny! You didn't define your subjective terms: "sufficiently" What is enough? 666 votes from a population of 1,000? Be specific, and prove that your inevitably ARBITRARY criteria should be law. Prove that your bigotry should be law, in other words. :-) Define "clamour." Does this mean riots like liberals love to do? Does this include votes? "Votes dont' count. What counts is who counts the votes." "The best argument against democracy is a 5-minute conversation with the average voter." "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what to have for dinner." Demoncracy is a bandwagon fallacy, so of course the illogical appeals to your ilk.

@fumassametall Oh my, Johny! I just checked out your profile because of a hunch which turned out to be right! YOU'RE A SOCK-PUPPET ACCOUNT! LOL! "This channel doesn't have any content" ZERO UPLOADS! ZERO PLAYLISTS! (which you might add after I post this but you were caught already.) JOINED IN 2011 which means that for over a decade, you've been doing shit like this! What a waste of a life!! I pity you. :-)

@fumassametall For the sake of having a life, I'm done in this thread. Too many trolls will waste my time. Enough Portuguese had their chance to have me listen to their side, and it's full of shit. Go on and lie to your heart's content, Portuguese and their sock-puppet accounts! Hahaha!!!Time to go back to my epic realistic map of América where I will God-willing put Portugal in its place like Felipe II did with Moroccan help. Oh, history is great.

@Tusiriakest I'm back because I have a bit of time now to crushthe egos of anti-Spaniards, having responded to some idiot in another thread, and noticed this one nearby. You want a piece of me, so I'll shit on your ego then. "Oh dear Scintillam... if you say that the Spanish Empire was the first global empire, when I just joked about the fact that Portugal even owns a Guiness World Record for that..." The definition of global empire is subjective which you would know if you had a mind of your own. The Porkogeese had no property in América until after the Spanish got there, so they had less of the world meaning it wasn't truly global. Ruling out most of the western hemisphere isn't how ou achieve universality, blind one. If you define North America as its own continent, they took even longer than the Spanish than in South America. "if you say the Spanish Empire was bigger than the British one instead of looking truthfully at simple maps... " You're a massive hypocrite who looks onnly at land, and not oceans. To count the last grain of sand in Australia but ignore the SPanish lake, is stupidity. But that's what I'm dealing with here... Irrational anti-Spaniards who know nothing but strut as if they do. "and that the Spanish Empire took over the Portuguese Empire," The throne of Porkugal was farted on by a Spanish leader or more for 60 years. Felipe II conquered the Portuguese Empire with Moroccan help. That's basic history. Go see the ENglish and therefore anti-Spanish Wikipedia article on The Battle of Alcantara, my willfully ignorant dime-a-dozen enemy. "The Battle of Alcântara took place on 25 August 1580, near the brook of Alcântara, in the vicinity of Lisbon, Portugal, and was a victory of the Habsburg King Philip II over the other pretender to the Portuguese throne, Dom António, Prior of Crato." OH, BOO HOO! :-) "when talking about a period called 'iberion union' and instead of reading the Corte de Tomar agreement... " "Philip was recognized as king by the Cortes of Tomar in 1581, beginning the reign of the House of Habsburg over Portugal. " This doesn't hurt my case at all, but your own side, loser. You must be insinuating that the Spanish gave concessiosn to the Porkogeese. Sure. To make the slave believe he had freedom, the dog was given a bone. Woof woof! :-) Some "victory." If it were truly balanced, Porkugal wouldn't keep dreaming of independence (i.e. returnign to being England's bitch HAHA!).... I hold up a mirror at you: "I think you made up your mind about what you want history to be, and any fact opposing that 'is a conspiracy' " I don't recall ever in my life accusing another of being a conspiracy theorist. Only fools refuse to question mainstream narratives promoted by some corrupt government. "Don’t worry, Spain is already widely recognised by its achievements" People don't know the half of them thanks to the Blak LEgend you peddle, loser. "and I’m happy for you to be proud of your country." I'm NOT proud. You don't know anything. Pride is sin. I'm GLAD to be Spanish. "It’s a good country to be proud for;)" No. It's murderous and evil. They're Mary-worshippers who became atehist f_g_ts. Spain deesrves destruction. It is so unlike its glorious imperial creationist self. "let others also enjoy their own country’s achievements" I will keep shitting on Porkugal's gay pride parade because Porkugal slings shit at my people. I used to love Portugal untnil the Porkogeese belittled my people. "as well and try learning how to appreciate them as well;)" Again you know nothing. Being Iberian of the original stock, Portugal's glory is mine. :-) Being Spansih, Portugaal's glory is extra-mine. Iberian Unino, baby! Unequal since the capital was Madrid, and the emperor wasn't Porkogeese! BOO HOO! Loser.

@Tusiriakest "cartagenean-vandal-visigoth" Carthage was Phoenician-led and mostly Berber. I am in the process of uploading my series "Greeks, Latins, Iberians and Jews were, and are, NOT BLOND!" I have proof that I am not a Berber, so you are shitting out a strawman fallacy to feel superior to me when you are not. I love Berbers but their glory isn't as great as Iberian. "vandal"? I look not one bit Germanic. "visigoth" Nope. Not at all. You know nothing. You are all pathetic, attacking scarecrow versions of me. How weak you are. "ramble" Implying I'm irrational, which none of you have proven, 'caure you're all tigres de papel. I easily challenged all of you and for over a year, you pathetic mockers with hollow words are the best your side can scramble. ha ha! Now who's next?

@fumassametall "don’t forget that he is also more moor related than any of us xD" Moors took all of Portugal, so you're a hypocrite. And I'm not a Moor. They look very different than me. Black hair isn't monopolized by Africans nor Asians, ignorant loser. I'd rather be a Moor than be closely-related to you, though. :-)

@maximilianolimamoreira5002 So many anti-Spanish envious, never-had-nor-will-ever-have-a-bigger-and-more-epic-empire people. Spain's gold was used to fight Islam and adorn heretic churches. It wasn't all for self-centered reasons. Because of Spain, Turks did not conquer beyond Vienna. Hundreds of Spaniards ensured it would stand.
