ID and Passwort aren't optional in Portugal, and even in Europe there are countries that don't take ID cards.

Not in the European Union as that is not allowed:

> Without prejudice to the provisions on travel documents applicable to national border controls, Member States shall grant Union citizens leave to enter their territory with a valid identity card or passport

Europe is composed by 44 countries, a subset of those countries are part of European Union, more precisely 27, which also makes the Schengen Area with agreementes with external EU countries like Switzerland.

It is an exercise in geography to track down down which 16 countries don't care you have an ID card.
