Answer:

The European countries that established colonies in Brazil and Cuba were Portugal and Spain.

Step-by-step explanation:

-After the Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494, the Brazilian territory was the segment of the American continent that corresponded to the kingdom of Portugal, from which it obtained its independence on September 7, 1822.

-Cuba remained a Spanish colony until 1869, and as a Spanish province until the Spanish-American War of 1898, unleashed after the intervention of the United States in the Cuban War of Independence.
