"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts. |
Portugal is a country in southwestern Europe bordered only by Spain. Its capital city is Lisbon.
Magical education[]
- Portuguese witches and wizards have the option to attend Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France,[1] presumably due to a lack of a wizarding school in their own country. Because of this, it can be assumed that Portuguese wizarding children learn French as a second language during their childhood or that Beauxbatons has a Portuguese sub-division as French is not a language traditionally spoken by the Portuguese.
Magical games and sports[]
- Braga Broomfleet are a Quidditch team from Portugal, which are considered by some "one of the best teams in the world", due to their inventive tactics.[2]
- Portugal has its own National Quidditch team. They have competed in the 422nd Quidditch World Cup.[3]
