Portoga is a kingdom and a castle town found in Dragon Quest III.
History
Portoga is ruled by a king who has a particular fondness for the fiery flavour of black pepper. Black pepper is a rarity in the kingdom, however, and it is said to grow in the East; the kingdom has attempted eastern expeditions for more pepper, and many have died in the attempts.
When the Hero arrived in Portoga looking for a ship, the King promised to award them his flagship in exchange for black pepper. He gives the Hero the Royal Missive, to present to Nordy the Dwarf and gain passage through Nordy's Grotto. When the Hero returns with the black pepper, he honours his promise and gives them his ship.0
Afterwards, it is mentioned that Portoga has established trade routes with the eastern countries.
