Sino-Portuguese relations can be traced back all the way to 1514 during the Ming dynasty of China. Relations between the modern political entities of the People's Republic of China and the Portuguese Republic officially began on 2 February 1979.[1] China and Portugal established the comprehensive strategic partnership in 2005.[2]
