Answer
Portugal was the European country against which Cabral fought. Cabral, a Portuguese explorer, led an expedition to India in 1500, seeking a sea route to the East. During his voyage, he encountered the coast of Brazil and claimed it for Portugal. However, he faced resistance from the indigenous people and also encountered competition from other European powers, particularly Portugal, which had already established a presence in the region.
