Brazil, located in South America, is the fifth largest country for both for the land size and the population. With a country taking up almost half of a continent, the 200 million people only occupy about ten percent of the entire country. Twenty-two percent of the population is under the age of 15.9 There are three main cities; the first is the capital Brasilia, with a population of over two million. The other two cities are San Paulo and Rio de Janeiro; accounting for over 15 million of the people. Throughout Brazil, a majority of the population speaks Portuguese and are generally Christian-based, following the Catholic faith. The currency is called the Brazilian Real (BRL). The BRL is equivalent to about $0.3 United States dollar.

Have you ever wondered it would be like to live in the big country Brazil? Well, Brazil is the most fabulous place to visit if you are a tourist but, has other environmental concerns that actually make it a country that cannot be lived in. If I was a person living in Brazil, I would be very careful and be aware of my surrounding because there are so many terrorist groups. Also, the climate which takes up most of Brazil in the Amazon rainforest is very dangerous especially for animals and wildlife because of all the deforestation that has occurred in this country. Brazil is a federal republic which is not stable since there is poverty. Even though there is a Constitution that is in play at the moment which I believe is being ignored and people

Brazil is located in Eastern South America and borders the Atlantic Ocean. Brazil is very comparable to the USA, being only slightly smaller in size. The economy is well-developed in agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and service sectors, and it has an expanding middle class. Brazil was under Portuguese rule until it gained independence in 1822 and maintained a monarchical system of government until the abolition of slavery in 1888.

The current President of Brazil is President Dilma, who is currently serving his second and final term. The Vice President is Michel Miguel Elias Temer Lulia. Brazil declared independence from Portugal in 1822, on 7 September. The National Anthem is the Hino Nacional Brasileiro and was recognized in 1822, but was used for many years before. Their legal system is civil law. Their nations colors (on the flag), are green, blue and yellow and has a Southern Cross constellation in the middle. Brazil’s military consists of an Army (Exercito Brazileiro), Navy (Marinha do Brasil), Air Force (Forca Aerea Brasileira), and a Naval Air and Marine Corps (orpo de Fuzileiros Navais). In the 1980s, Brazils Army became the first in all of South America to allow women in their ranks. Today, females are only allowed to serve in their Marinha do Brasil and Forca Aerea Brasileira in Women Reserve Corps. To be eligible for service to Brazil you have to be between the ages of 17 to 45. Brazil is currently under a dispute with Uruguay over the Brasiliera Island. The smuggling of firearms and narcotics continues to cause tension between the two

There was a time when one thought that Brazil was filled with beautiful women and outstanding scenery, but where did this thought of Brazil go down the drain? When I was ten years old, I spent a month in Brazil, I didn’t fully see this imagery of the country. Was it always in an economic turmoil or was I too young to see it’s true colors? A country that held the olympics is usually broadcasted on the TVs as beautiful and well fit for the players to travel to. However, what exactly is being hidden from the viewers? They elected their first female president in 2011 and have since declined economically. What did she do wrong? What are the stats on the country about its history economically, poverty, and can they come back from this fall?

Having problems means you have solutions, one problem that seems like both major and a minor problem is the economy in brazil “Brazil’s economic growth by around half a percentage point for each of 2011 and 2012 (to 4.1% and 3.6% respectively)...It now thinks Brazil will grow less than most other emerging economies” (“Changing direction” 37). Brazil’s economy is not doing well, a solution to that problem could have been not hosting both the world cup and the 2016 olympic games, hosting both events are making brazil's government think that they need to be the perfect hosts for the events but building a brand new stadium and not focus on the fact that most of brazilians are living at or below poverty level. Another problem i see is the illegal drugs that are bought and sold for such low amounts of money in brazil that people are becoming more and more addicted, even gangs are starting to become bigger and more numerous all over brazil “Because of the drug industry the brazilian favela gangs are more numerous” (Walker 35). A major problem in brazil is people not feeling safe when traveling there, tourists need to feel safe when they travel anywhere and with the emerging gangs and the terrorist threats against brazil, people do feel less and less safe “They do get nervous and they do ask, 'Is it safe?' There are going to be millions of people coming to Brazil" (qtd from Baran 14). One

After an all-night debate, Brazil’s Senate voted Thursday morning to suspend President Dilma Rousseff and begin an impeachment trial against her, ousting a deeply unpopular leader whose sagging political fortunes have come to embody widespread public anger over systemic corruption and a battered

The fact remains that Brazil, Earth’s fourth biggest democratic government, plunged into political turmoil in a matter of years (2). On May 12 2016, Brazil’s Senate voted 55 to 22 to suspend President Dilma Rousseff, advancing impeachment proceedings against her for allegedly breaking government budget restrictions. But while the legal basis for her removal hangs on disputed interpretations of budgetary law, the debate

The Petrobras scandal has definitely put Brazil back to square one. The country has seen tremendous growth over the last two decades; however, this scandal is occurring during a pivotal part during Olympic season. Petrobras is highly indebted, meaning it owes a large amount of money to pay back a monetary loan.

The constitution of Brazil gives the president tremendous powers. For example, the president may intervene in affairs of Brazil's states. The chief executive may even create new states from existing ones.

On the whole Brazil is a country continuing to grow and achieve both economically and socially this can be seen in a variety of ways from its inclusion in the ‘BRICS’ to its higher levels of GDP in recent years.
