Ibero-America (also "Spanish and Portuguese Speaking Commonwealth of Independent States") is a term which started to be used in the second half of the 19th century to refer collectively to the countries in the Americas which were formerly colonies of Spain or Portugal. Spain and Portugal are themselves included, for example the Organization of Ibero-American States has them as member states.
