Portugal's fascist regime lasted from 1933 to 1974. It was 5 years longer than Spain's.

Portuguese are just confused Spaniards in the same way that Belgians are confused Frenchies.

I bet the 1975 Spaniards remembered the 1974 Portuguese. But also, when I told a neighbor I was honeymooning in Portugal I was asked "Where is that? Is it part of Spain?" So yeah, it's a lot of folks out there who don't remember Portugal.
