Why is portugal such a poorly developed nation?

Very sad state of affairs, I hope the milieu changes over there for the better soon.

>"you should eat what you are given and not complain, it could be even worse".
yea. no ambition to make things better. having ambition to grow is frowned upon. I blame ultra religious (catholic) mentality. maybe it'll start changing in a few decades.

I like you Japan

casa portuguesa is a classic

Numa casa portuguesa fica bem
Pão e vinho sobre a mesa
E se à porta humildemente bate alguém,
Senta-se à mesa com a gente
Fica bem essa fraqueza, fica bem,
Que o povo nunca a desmente
A alegria da pobreza
Está nesta grande riqueza
De dar, e ficar contente
Quatro paredes caiadas,
Um cheirinho à alecrim,
Um cacho de uvas doiradas,
Duas rosas num jardim,
Um São José de azulejo
Mais o sol da primavera,
Uma promessa de beijos
Dois braços à minha espera
É uma casa portuguesa, com certeza!
É, com certeza, uma casa portuguesa!
No conforto pobrezinho do meu lar,
Há fartura de carinho
A cortina da janela e o luar,
Mais o sol que bate nela
Basta pouco, poucochinho pra alegrar
Uma existência singela
É só amor, pão e vinho
E um caldo verde, verdinho
A fumegar na tijela
Quatro…

If, by any miracle, a (finally) bloody revolution arises, I will be among the first to participate in the mass slaughter of the incompetent nepotistical "elites" of this "country".

Blame Spain

I wish you safety during the retaking of your homeland from the tyrannical filth. Corrupt nepotist despots deserve nothing less than slaughter.

Thanks, amerifriend.

If the Iberian union hadn't happened Portugal would rule the galaxy by now

Portugal is a developed country. Good healthcare, safe, satisfatory transportation, good roads, welfare state... The salaries are shit and we have a lot of taxes. Still there's a ot of people with money.

can you post a picture of your roads?

>good roads
ehh

>good roads
Lol

Anyone have that pic of the border between Spain and Portugal, with the difference in road quality?

Poverty create soul. Suffering create strong men. That's why Portugal > Spain > Western europe.

how come africa is a shithole with shit people for most
i agree with your theory, but it's only a part of the deal, difficulties increases your basic points, good becomes better, bad becomes worse

I was talking about developed/ing countries with basic freedoms and social institutions, like free high education etc.
E.g. Scandinavians are absolutely soulless

i dont think they are bad people tho, they just lack that necessary stress that is good to personal development
if taken out from there and put in harshness most of them would do good me thinks
poverty in a developed country is pretty relative tho, you could call everything after food and heating optional after all, and beside hobos (which only lack the latter most of times) there arent many in that situation

I don't believe in forcing your people to have worse conditions, but obviously, people who successfully struggle grow up to tougher. However, a lot of them don't make it (suicide rates in Russia are a good indicator).

Sure, just talking about why Portugal is better in such terms. And they are important.

I'm not talking that life in such countries is happy, probably not always. But soul doesn't correlate with suicide levels

All the scum that lives in this hellhole are equally subhuman anyway.

Dying people, dying country. Only reason this hasn't turned into memezuela is because we survive of gibs given by the E.U like leeches.

Its not.

Youve only had higher GDP per capita than Portugal for like 2-3 years while for the 50 years before Portugalia has been incomparably wealthier than Lithuania so Portuguese people managed to accumulate capital Lithuanians don't have.

It's enough to compare average Portuguese middle class neighborhood to anything in Eastern Europe to realize how much we need to catch up with them in terms of living standards.

It is unironically our fault. If Spain was more developed we would have imported more stuff from them. Some of the poorest regions in Spain are the ones bordering portugal

Guys are Portuguese North Africans or not? What does North African indicate on results such as Ancestry.com. Please please please somebody reassure me that I'm not a nigger (not that there's anything wrong with that).
