In fact, the country itself has no real culture of it's own, and some political scientists agree that it is a fake country because the word Luso is a made up word to begin with. Considering that the predominant phenotype in portugal is Gypsy and Arab. Not sure why subsequent governments and historians decided to cover this all up since the core-roots of the country, since it's founding, have been that of a Gypsy and Arab dichotomy? Perhaps, it was to make itself sound better and greater since it was a tiny and backward Nation who's neighbor is a Large and successful nation called Spain, and it did not want to be left behind? Hence, the invented term Luso?<br /><br />At any rate, here is some compelling literature to bring forth a greater understanding of the suppressed Gypsy and Arab culture, the cornerstone really, of the country of portugal. An Arab influence that has been successfully suppressed in portual for centuries to be exact:<br /> https://www.arabamerica.com/every-facet-portuguese-life-arabs-left-mark/<br /><br />Also, Gypsy culture in portugal that has been suppressed as well:<br /><br />https://www.arabamerica.com/every-facet-portuguese-life-arabs-left-mark/<br /><br />https://portugalwasabadcolonizer.neocities.org/<br /><br />EnjoyDr. Fuzetahttps://portugalwasabadcolonizer.neocities.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281872119838034340.post-49789226120426678302016-06-17T05:33:03.748+12:002016-06-17T05:33:03.748+12:00The name ROMANI has absolutely NOTHING to do with ...The name ROMANI has absolutely NOTHING to do with Romania.

There are 1000s of photos just like the one in Bajo Bidasoa. It is unfortunate that so few Americans understand what they are seeing when they look at their old family photos!<br /><br />KentuckyKaleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
