What do you know about Brazil?
Brazil is an amazing collection of organized diversity and one of the most significant and important countries on the face of the planet.
The Portuguese navigator Pedro Alvares Cabral arrived here in 1500, and claimed this land for Portugal. Three centuries later (in 1822) Brazil proudly proclaimed its independence, and has never looked back.
It's a huge country with a land mass that covers nearly half of South America. Much of the population lives in the Heartland, along the southern and southeastern coastal areas.
Brazil is famous for its beaches, coffee, the Amazon River and rainforest, Carnival in Rio, and the country's passion for samba, soccer....and so much more.
