Explanation:

The 1494's Treaty of Tordesillas accomplish for the Portuguese is creating a "vertical line through South America, giving Portugal the claim to the east coast of today Brazil."

The above statement is true in the sense that the agreement or treaty, which was made on July 7th, 1494, in Spain, led to the division of the south American continent between Portugal and Spain. Eventually, all lands in the western part of the continent were claimed by Spain, while the eastern part was claimed by Portugal and today referred to as Brazil.
