Thanks, Stan. Just what I always needed. Dear Line of Demarcation, you have so much to teach us about the way that the world used to work and the way that it works now. In 1494, Pope Alexander VI settled a dispute between Portugal and Spain by dividing the world into two parts. The Spanish part and the Portuguese part. This whole thing, at least according to Pope Alexander VI, could be split between Spain and Portugal. At least when it came to so-called unclaimed land.
