Estado Novo
Estado Novo appears on the map from 1926 to 1975. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1958, it covered about 2.20 million km².
One of the realms of Portuguese Empire. Portugal, a small Atlantic kingdom, began Europe's age of overseas empire when it captured Ceuta in Morocco in 1415. Encouraged by Prince Henry the Navigator, its sailors crept down the African coast until Vasco da Gama reached India in 1498.
