I think that would be really cool.
For someone whose origins are from the Indian sub-contient (with a Portugese name) the one for the Indian subcontinent would be especially interesting.
The Dutch, Portuguese, French and the British all colonized this already very populated sub-continent. Independence here was quite a different mechanism to America and revolved largely around the indigenous people (unlike the American Indians, who largely got wiped out)...and one great founding father - Mahatma Gandhi :)
