When it comes to Portugal, would you happen to have any recommended reading for someone new to both period and country for an idea of what they're getting into?
Nothing specific, but I'd recommend reading about John V (Portugal's Sun King) and the re-entry of Portugal in European politics he led, Indian Ocean trade and activities in South East Asia, and the growth of Brazil.
If you need a hand finding things beyond Wikipedia, let me know and I'll lend a hand.

Also UsefulDave, if you want Portugal, lemme know. It wasn't clear if you were expressing interest/hunting for guidance or actually wanted to sign up, and I didn't want to presume.

I'll take a shot a Portugal next time turns roll 'round, aye. Apologies for the delay in this, Christmas stuff and debating over if I'd actually be able to pull anything off non-modern.

My hat on the side
Dragging clog
Scarf around my neck
Razor in my pocket
I'm swinging by
I tease and challenge
I'm proud to be such a scoundrel

Can send you one now, if you'd like. People are talking a fair amount of time to get back to me with their PMs, so you have time.
