No, there was a confederacy in 1492 - Castile and Aragon. Each had their own laws.
Yes but because the kings Catholics marriage. Isabel and Fernando.
Portuguese people accept Filipe II (king of Spain) as king of Portugal (between 1580 and 1640) in the Iberian Union because with the death of Don Sebastião in battle against Moorish they did not have heirs to the throne yet and Filipe II of Spain was grandson of the Portuguese king Don Manuel I, so Filipe was really the unique with ‘’royal Portuguese blood’’ live and in that time people respected these thinks.
With the marriage of the Catholics kings Isabel and Fernando. Am I wrong?
Iberia Union was bad for Brazil because the enemies of Spain (England, Holland and France) started attack Brazil (kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and Algarve) to harm king Filipe included northeast Brazil was taken by Netherlands as his colony in that time so was supported by Brazilians the dynasty of ‘’house of Braganças’’ took back the control the kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and Algarve from Castile.
As we can see, the french were inviolved in the creation of two brazilian capitals. They founded São LuÃs and Rio de Janeiro was founded to kick them out.
From 1630 to 1654, the Dutch set up more permanently in commercial Recife and Olinda. With the capture of Paraiba in 1635, the Dutch controlled a long stretch of the coast most accessible to Europe (Dutch Brazil), without, however, penetrating the interior. The large Dutch ships were unable to moor in the coastal inlets where lighter Portuguese shipping came and went. Ironically, the result of the Dutch capture of the sugar coast was a higher price of sugar in Amsterdam. During the Nieuw Holland episode, the colonists of the Dutch West India Company in Brazil were in a constant state of siege, in spite of the presence of the Count John Maurice of Nassau as governor (1637–1644) in Recife. Nassau invited scientific commissions to research the local flora and fauna, resulting in added knowledge of the territory. Moreover, he set up a city project for Recife and Olinda, which was partially accomplished. Remnants survive into the modern era. After several years of open warfare, the Dutch finally withdrew in 1654. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Brazil
About Portugal and Spain, I see Spain as a more diversificated country, multilingual and traditionally multiethinic, while Portugal became multiethinic because of the immigration from the former colonies.
But ironically I see Portugal as a more inclusive country than Spain.

It has historically played out that way all you have to do is look at how the Edict of Expulsion played out in Spain in 1492 and contrast it to the Expulsion in Portugal in 1497. Which sadly by the was religious fanaticism which was imported from Spain.
