Best Answer

In 1494 CE the Pope arranged for Spain and Portugal to agree to a division of the world for each country to operate in to avoid clashes between them. This followed Christopher Columbus' entry to the Americas. The Portuguese had already visited South America and grasped its potential so they persuaded the Spanish to agree to shifting the boundary further west to give Brazil, unknown to the Spanish, to Portugal.
