Heh, I bet. I'm in a pretty decent Latin American history course this semester, covers precolonial times through the present, and when we covered Brazil, we did a bit on Portugal. Since I'm a bit of a Napoleonic War buff, I already had some interest in the region, but I didn't really know anything about the actual history of Portugal. Pretty cool; much more interesting than yet *another* iteration of American history!
