How can a shithole itself make great colonies? Also Macau is pretty nice and is more developed than Portugal itself.
City states don't count for shit

Macao
Zero of our old colonies were populated only by us (white portuguese), it never happened.

Portugal is just fine, of course we have a great history
Why the fuck would you have a colony if not to fuck it up?

They had shit luck throughout history to an almost uncanny degree, but the potential was there.
Goa was pretty decent until the pajeets forcefully annexed it and flooded it with Hindus from the 3rd world areas of india
