🇵🇹 Happy Portugal Republic Day! 🇵🇹
On this day in 1910, Portugal transitioned from a monarchy to a republic, paving the way for modern democratic governance. Did you know? Portugal’s strong diplomatic ties with the European Union have played a key role in strengthening economic partnerships with Malaysia, especially in the renewable energy and technology sectors.
Feliz Dia da República, Portugal!
