Salazar
Estado Novo architect
Salazar is a Spanish and Portuguese surname, most associated with António de Oliveira Salazar, the authoritarian ruler of Portugal from 1932 to 1968.
The name appears in fiction—notably the villainous Salazar Slytherin in Harry Potter—and across Latin America as a common family name.
In political contexts, it may evoke authoritarian or fascist connotations.
