Portugal has a few:

- The Battle of Aljubarrota (1385) in which 6,600, or so, Portuguese soldiers were able to defeat a more than 30,000 strong Castille army.

- The navy Battle of Diu (1509): after several defeats by the Muslims fleets, Portugal annihilated the Muslims and began the European dominance of the Indian Ocean that lasted until World War 2.
