Weird how they used the symbols of an orange and grape, ironically portuguese oranges and portuguese wine are much more well known than spanish oranges and wine.

They were selling a novelty fruit: sweet oranges from Portugal. European oranges were bitter, good only to make marmalade. That all changed when the Portuguese brought sweet-orange trees from India and China. These trees produced the most fashionable fruit in Europe. Portuguese oranges were so expensive, that Moliére used them in his play The Miser to signify extravagance. Louis XIV, who thought that sweet oranges looked like the sun, adopted them as his personal symbol and did not rest until he had his own “orangerie.”> After apples, oranges are the most produced fruit in Portugal. The legacy behind it means that some countries named this fruit after Portugal, such as Romania (“portocálâ”), Bulgaria and Turkey (“portukal”) and Greece (“portukáli”). In the Arabic and Persian languages the name of the country “Portugal” literally means “orange.” So yes, we can consider it a major landmark of Lusitanian culture.
