The answer is B) The Treaty of Tordesillas, designed to divide the Atlantic between Spain and Portugal, unintentionally granted Brazil to Portugal. This was made when the Portuguese king John II negotiated with King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella where the boundary lines were moved to the west. In doing so, it enabled the Portuguese to explore Eastern Africa and grant them lands that make up the Eastern portion of Brazil.

churchill warned that the soviet union had cut eastern europe off from the west with an "iron curtain."
