The correct answer is Brazil.
To determine the answer, you can consider the historical context of colonialism. Portuguese colonization in the 16th century resulted in the establishment of a colony known as "Portuguese Brazil." Over time, the Portuguese language became dominant in the region as it was the language used by Portuguese settlers, administrators, and missionaries. This ultimately led to Portuguese becoming the official language of Brazil after its independence in 1822. Therefore, the country where Portuguese is the official language, due to its historical colonization, is Brazil.
