The Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990

The Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990 is a treaty that aims to unified how the Portuguese language is written in countries where Portuguese is the official language. It was signed in Lisbon in 1990 and the signatories included representatives from all Portuguese-speaking countries. Unfortunately, only three of the nine countries (all part of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries, or CPLP) have followed the agreement as of 2024 (Portugal, Brazil and Cape Verde).
