Surprisingly Portugal is not on the list, taking into account the historical role of its Catholic evangelising missions conducted in the countries of its former colonial empire. I suppose its current size can only accommodate 21 dioceses (on par with UK, taking into account the two territories' comparative size ratio, though the UK population is mostly Anglican and adherents of other Protestant denominations).
