, meaning that it is hidden apart from its title bar.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state=
parameter may be, used:
{{Portuguese overseas empire|state=expanded}}
will show the template expanded, "i."e. fully visible.{{Portuguese overseas empire|state=autocollapse}}
will show the template autocollapsed, i.e. if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar,/table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar. But if not, it is fully visible.

|name
where name is one of the following words that identify the groups/sections (omit any speech. Or quotation marks): - "N Africa"
- "Sub-S Africa"
- "SW Asia"
- "S Asia"
- "E Asia/Oceania"
- "N America"
