CAPITAL CITY OF Portugal: Lisbon LANGUAGE OF Portugal: Portuguese CURRENCY OF Portugal: Euro (EUR) COMMENTS ABOUT Portugal: Portugal, in Southern Europe, shares the Iberian peninsula at the western tip of Europe with Spain Cities : Lisbon (capital), Guimarães, Coimbra, Évora, Faro, Porto, Sintra Best Places : Cabo da Roca, Fátima Electricity : 230V/50Hz (European plug) Calling Code : +351 Time Zone UTC Following its heyday as a world power during the 15th and 16th centuries, Portugal lost much of its wealth and status with the destruction of Lisbon in a 1755 earthquake, occupation during the Napoleonic Wars, and the independence in 1822 of Brazil as a colony. A 1910 revolution deposed the monarchy; for most of the next six decades, repressive governments ran the country. In 1974, a left-wing military coup installed broad democratic reforms. The following year, Portugal granted independence to all of its African colonies. Portugal is a founding member of NATO and entered the EC (now the EU) in 1986. CLIMATE OF Portugal: maritime temperate; cool and rainy in north, warmer and drier in south RELIGION OF Portugal: Roman Catholic 94%, Protestant (1995) POPULATION OF Portugal: 10,524,145 (July 2004 est.)>> ECONOMY OVERVIEW OF Portugal: Portugal has become a diversified and increasingly service-based economy since joining the European Community in 1986. Over the past decade, successive governments have privatized many state-controlled firms and liberalized key areas of the economy, including the financial and telecommunications sectors. The country qualified for the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) in 1998 and began circulating the euro on 1 January 2002 along with 11 other EU member economies. Economic growth has been above the EU average for much of the past decade, but fell back in 2001-03. GDP per capita stands at 70% of that of the leading EU economies. A poor educational system, in particular, has been an obstacle to greater productivity and growth. Portugal has been increasingly overshadowed by lower-cost producers in Central Europe and Asia as a target for foreign direct investment. The coalition government faces tough choices in its attempts to boost Portugal's economic competitiveness and to keep the budget deficit within the 3% EU ceiling. |
