Portugal is a country - the grammar follows the rules in the lesson linked below, not those of the lesson you have noted, which applies to counties/states/regions etc 

Cities have different preposition use again.

 

It is “…au Portugal …”

En/au/aux = In/to with countries and continents (French Prepositions)

En/dans

Should we are going to Portugal be nous allons au Portugal or nous allons dans le Portugal.
