== Strategy ==
The Portuguese are one of the dominant trading nations in the game, oriented towards sea trade. Throughout the game, their Trade Routes produce double the revenue from resource diversity. As if this weren't enough, their unique naval unit, the Nau, is able to conduct special trade missions that provide one-time boosts, in addition to an XP bonus. What's more, thanks to their unique improvement, the Feitoria, they can gain access to almost all luxuries without having to trade for them, thus leaving more and resources for other sorts of trading deals!
Because their main power comes from city-states, Portugal should be concerned primarily with them, which points towards a diplomatic victory. Develop the Portuguese as a seafaring civilization while developing the Patronage policy tree, try to rush Astronomy, and start producing Naus ASAP. Then explore the world while trading, and send out Workers to build Feitorias in all city-states you consider to be strategic for you.
