Chase Perry
No we were not.
We were founded by a half-Burgundian/Half-Galician count, unaffiliated to any religious order.
Also, the Holy Orders employed in the Portuguese Reconquista were the Orders of Santiago, Alcantara, Calatrava and Aviz, and to a lesser extent, the Hospitaliers.
The Order of Crist (Order of the Templars after it was cool) was only established AFTER the Portuguese Reconquista had ended, and was mostly involved in the Imperial overseas expansion.

No, the Templars were usually the forefront of the reconquista, names like Gualdim Pais, or Martim Moniz were all templars:

way before the end of the portuguese reconquista
James Foster
Is that pic the medieval festival of Santa Maria da Feira or is it another one?

Gualdim Pais became a Templar AFTER leaving on a crusade to the Holy Land, not during his service to the Portuguese Crown.
Martim Moniz was a lesser unlanded Knight, with no ties to the Templars either. In fact he died before the first templars even settled in Tomar.
Names like Paio Peres Correia (Grandmaster of the Order of Santiago) on the other hand were the forefront of the Reconquista. He was the one comanding the armies who took subjugated the entire Algarve and decisively won the reconquista.

>Gualdim Pais became a Templar AFTER leaving on a crusade to the Holy Land, not during his service to the Portuguese Crown.
That's irrelevant when he became a Templar, he fought in the portuguese reconquista as a Templar till he dies, like thousands of others.

I am the broken vikings.

>A Ordem do Templo chegou ao Condado Portucalense ainda à época de Teresa de Leão, condessa de Portugal, que lhe fez a doação da vila de Fonte Arcada, atual concelho de Penafiel, anteriormente a 1126. Em 1127, a mesma condessa fez-lhe a doação do Castelo de Soure, na linha do rio Mondego, sob o compromisso de colaborar na conquista de terras aos Muçulmanos. Já como reinado de Portugal, D. Afonso Henriques (1143-1185), a ordem recebeu a doação do Castelo de Longroiva (1145), na linha do rio Côa. Pouco depois os cavaleiros da ordem apoiaram-no na conquista de Santarém (1147) ficando sob responsabilidade da Ordem a defesa do território entre o rio Mondego e o rio Tejo, a montante de Santarém. A partir de 1160, a ordem estabeleceu a sua sede no país em Tomar e obtendo o senhorio da região de Castelo Branco.
>Após o processo de extinção da ordem pelo papa Clemente V e a detenção dos mesmos por Filipe de França, O Belo, o rei D. Dinis I de Portugal (1279-1325) procurou evitar a transferência do património da ordem no país para a Ordem de São João do Hospital[46], vindo a obter, do Papa João XXII a bula "Ad ae exquibus", expedida em 15 de março de 1319, pela qual era aprovada a constituição da "Ordo Militiae Jesu Christi" (Ordem da Milícia de Jesus Cristo), à qual foram atribuídos os bens da extinta ordem no país. A nova ordem, após uma curta passagem por Castro Marim, veio a sediar-se também em Tomar, com sede no Convento de Cristo.
Liam Long

>Literaly only had a village and a castle by the time of the foundation of the Kingdom of Portugal
>Were given the task of defending the rear lmao
>Only gained a seat of Power after the Grandmaster (Previously knighted a knight of Portugal after serving under the King) served in the holy land and get the title there.
>Gained a hanful of territories in the rear almost as a favour to the Grandmaster who was close friends with the king and served him well before becoming a Templar
>Their lands are dwarved by the lands of Santiago, Calatrava and S.John of the Hospital
Their role was Meh at best.

Spain was the result of all Iberian kingdoms cucking themselves to Castile by marrige.
Except Portugal, who remained unckucked.
