First I want to thank you all for your patience with me...I feel completely ignorant in your company! You have such incredible knowledge of such a complicated subject!
But now that I've buttered you up! :) jk
I can't read the country name on this stamp...I know one of you will just look at it and know.

Portugal! Thanks...can you tell me what the word is after Republica at the top of the stamp?
Never mind! Silly me... I went to stampworld.com (which is amazing) and found it!

well I give up.. every time type the letter U, it gets changed to read YOU.....

Though the letter " you " looks like a V on the stamp I think it reads:

REPUBLICA PORTUGUESA

Here is a stamp similar so you can read the top:
