Pink Map
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pink Map (Portuguese: Mapa cor-de-rosa) was the document representing Portugal's claim of sovereignty over the land between Angola and Mozambique, in which today is currently Zambia, Zimbabwe and Malawi.
The dispute with Great Britain over these territories led to the British Ultimatum, to which Portugal gave in, causing serious damages to the image of the Portuguese monarchic government, and subsequent rise of the Republican political movements.
