Miss Portugal
Miss Portugal is an annual national beauty pageant for unmarried women in Portugal .
Portuguese women who took part in the Miss Universe competitions are known from the time before the Second World War : Marguerita Bastos Ferrier in Galveston (Texas) in 1927 and Fernanda Gonçalves in Rio de Janeiro in 1930 .
Candidates from the Iberian country take part in the elections for Miss World since 1959, Miss Universe and Miss Europe since 1960. So the local competition has existed at least since the late 1950s.
Today there are even two competitions and an associated organization each: Miss Portugal delegates its winners to Miss Universe and Miss Europe , Miss Lusitania on the other hand to Miss World and her Miss Lusitania Turismo to Miss Earth . ( Lusitania is the name of a Roman province that encompassed most of what is now Portugal as well as neighboring Spanish areas.)
