Portuguese is ranked sixth among the world's languages in number of native speakers (over 200 million), and first in South America (186 million, over 51% of the population). It is also a major lingua franca in Africa. It spread worldwide in the 15th and 16th century as Portugal set up a vast colonial and commercial empire (1415–1999), spanning from Brazil in the Americas to Macau in China. During this colonial period, many Portuguese creoles appeared around the world, especially in Africa, Asia and the Caribbean.

1. Brazilian Portuguese translations are required when your target Portuguese audience resides in Brazil
2. European Portuguese translations are acceptable usage for all other Portuguese speaking communities. 

•   There are often considerable differences in grammar as well as dialects between Brazilian Portuguese, particularly in its most informal varieties, and European Portuguese.
