Description
This Alternate Nation is a creation based in a former existent nation called the United Kingdom of Portugal Brazil and Algarves, that were made after it was implemented a royal family in Brazil during 19th century, after changing the status of this colony to a vice royalty and then a Kingdom, because the Portuguese royal family(Bragança) refuged there after the Napoleonic treat to the Portuguese royal family , after the Portuguese Royal family was settled there there was a vast reform to the vice royalty until this had became a Kingdom with equal status to Portugal and the Algarve's and than copying the example of the United Kingdom Of Britain and Ireland, It was implemented the United Kingdom of Portugal Brazil and the Algarves.
In our correct time-line, this project failed, in this alternate timeline there is only a supposition of how the thing would have been if this has resulted from that time to our current age.

- Why have I chosen the Real coin for that? - Simple everything is related to this breve history bellow:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portug…
-The real (Portuguese pronunciation: meaning "royal", plural: réis or reais) was the unit of currency of Portuguese Empire and Portugal from around 1430 until 1911. It replaced the dinheiro at the rate of 1 real = 840 dinheiros and was itself replaced by the escudo (as a result of the Republican revolutionof 1910) at a rate of 1 escudo = 1000 réis. The escudo was further replaced by the euro at a rate of 1 euro = 200.482 escudos in 2002.
- Why the Monarchy has fall?
-Probably US bribes to monarchy oppositors or Marxist revolutionaries.
-When the Portuguese republic was established and even year before in our correct
time line, Algarve was fully integrated in Portugal as it is today, only in alternate scenario in the case of Cape Verde only before 1975 agreed to became a community of micro states with the power of a single state inside the so called United States of Portugal Brazil and now Cape instead of Algarve/Algarves.
- Why instead of maintaining the same states Brazil has during Portuguese colonization which were less divided, and why does Portugal has a regionalization of States?
-Simple it's all a question of administration facility, as for the example of Mato Grosso the Brazilian State that have been divided in two because its size was to large to administrate as one.
In any case the states with the higher PIB are the states with more power in the Senate.
- And the last question, Why the States of Paraguay, Uruguay/Cisplatina, and Galicia are there?
- In the case of Uruguay\Cisplatina, it was a province reparteed in a territorial war with the recent independent nation of Brazil 19th century, and some parts of the independent Hispanic America, it was a territory In dispute between the Portuguese and Spanish empire, with the Portuguese victory in that part, the way Portuguese was once the only language of Uruguay/Cisplatina.
In our reality that province have became a country after England entered in a meddling between both independent parts to avoid a war.
Paraguay, that nation since is to small and have no connections to the sea, once tried to invade Brazil like it happened in our reality and as consequence got fully annexed.
Spain during Franco tried the same with Portugal , consequence of that was the reintegration of Galicia.
