Berlengas
The Berlengas are a Portuguese archipelago consisting of small Atlantic islands off the coast of Peniche, Portugal, in the Oeste region. These islands were traditionally known to British mariners as "the Burlings". The only inhabited island is its largest island, Berlenga Grande, although there is currently no permanent habitation in the archipelago. The other islands are grouped into two groups of islets, the Estelas Islets and the Farilhões-Forcados Islets. History Human occupation on Berlenga Grande dates back to antiquity: the islands are referred to in Ptolemy's ''Geography'' as Λονδοβρίς (''Londobris''). Much later it was referred to as the island of ''Saturno'' by Roman geographers, and was visited successively by Muslims, Vikings and privateers. The islands are thought to be a former sacred place adopted by the Phoenicians in the first millennium BC where the cult of Baal- Melqart was celebrated. In 1513, with the support of Queen Eleanor of Viseu, monks ...

Football Clubs In Portugal
Football is a family of team sports that involve, to varying degrees, kicking a ball to score a goal. Unqualified, the word ''football'' normally means the form of football that is the most popular where the word is used. Sports commonly called ''football'' include association football (known as ''soccer'' in North America and Australia); gridiron football (specifically American football or Canadian football); Australian rules football; rugby union and rugby league; and Gaelic football. These various forms of football share to varying extent common origins and are known as "football codes". There are a number of references to traditional, ancient, or prehistoric ball games played in many different parts of the world. Contemporary codes of football can be traced back to the codification of these games at English public schools during the 19th century. The expansion and cultural influence of the British Empire allowed these rules of football to spread to areas of British inf ...
