Perhaps someone would include the following map link from "The Economist" magazine's Brazil Survey in April 2007. It highlights the great regional disparities of this continent-sized country. |

Dear Felipe, |
|
|
The difference between the Economist map and the one you refer to is that the former shows the figures according to Purchasing-Power Parity (PPP), a much better way of demonstrating the actual standard of living. |

The data on religion in the infobox needs to be corrected, the percentage of people without religion in Brazil does not reach 19%. As a Brazilian, I think the CIA's 2023 estimates are closer to reality. ] (]) 13:23, 12 May 2024 (UTC) |

== Text changes (again) == |
|
|
|
|
|
The article need of some alterations for a possible Featured Article Nominee. These changes are mainly concentrated in the "Administrative divisions" and "Geography" sections. |
|
|
|
|
|
* '''"Etymology"''' |
|
|
In my opinion, this section is too short. Something needs to be changed. We eliminate it or expand it. |
|
|
|
|
|
* '''"Administrative divisions"''' |
|
|
This section can be expanded. The section could be divided in two sub-sections: "Regions" and "States". However, regions aren't administrative divisions, them are geographic divisions promoted by the IBGE for statistical ends, as the similarity of the States. |
|
|
|
|
|
The current text was written of "geographic" form and occults the history of the political division of Brazil, the territorial levels (captainships, provinces, territories, states, cities, neutral cities, districts), the annexation and loss of territorial areas. The different divisions in the Colonial, Imperial and Republican periods, need to be shown. |
|
|
|
|
|
An introduction showing the general history of the Brazilian territorial politics, and the "Regions" and "States" sub-sections detailing its subjects, would make an excellent section. |
|
|
|
|
|
* '''"Geography"''' |
|
|
In my opnion, this section can be expanded. The content is very reduced and the introduction is minimum, the section needs alterations urgently. |
|
|
|
|
|
The "Climate" sub-section can be summarized. Average temperatures of the cities aren't so important how much the climatic differences of Brazil. The text could give more emphasis to the diversity, like the wet climate of the Amazonian Forest, the Northeast dry climate, the cold climate of the South… Citations of the registered records temperatures already would be excellent. This would better demonstrate the climate of Brazil. |
|
|
|
|
|
* '''"Culture"''' |
|
|
The "Sports" subsection can be summarized. |

:Brazil has a vast diversity, in the Northern and Northeastern regions of Brazil, there are more African Americans than in the south. In the Central region, which houses São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, there is a mix of everything. In the Southern region it is more common to see blonde and blue eyed people, since they have European descent. As a southerner myself, I am not blonde or blue eyed, but I have lots of European descent from countries like Austria and Italy. ] (]) 22:35, 28 December 2024 (UTC) |

Brazil's form of government is a representative democracy, with periodic and direct elections, where citizens elect their politicians and representatives in a direct, clean and fair manner.Brazil is a Federation composed of federative units (the states And the head of government and head of state is the President of the Republic, directly elected by popular vote. In other words, Brazil is a Democratic Presidential Federal Republic. I had added this to the page about Brazil but it ended up being undone by a colleague at Misplaced Pages I decided to write this to explain better. ] (]) 04:20, 25 September 2024 (UTC) |

Let the article the way it is. You had enough fun here, kid. The article is all done but, as you have nothing else to do here, you spend hours trying to find something to change. |

== Grammatical error in Demographics == |

What is your problem, child? Why can't you accept Brazil the way it is? Why do you keep erasing the picture of Ipanema beach in the article ] and posting a dark image to hide the beach? |

"Outside in the Arab world, Brazil also has the largest population of Arab ancestry in the world, with 15–20 million people." should be "Outside '''of''' the Arab world, Brazil also has the largest population of Arab ancestry in the world, with 15–20 million people." |

I wonder, have you ever been out of your house? You need to travel more, kid. Ask your father to leave you go a little around. Because everybody here is laughing at you and at your non-sense. |

The data on religion in the infobox needs to be corrected, the percentage of people without religion in Brazil does not reach 19%. As a Brazilian, I think the CIA's 2023 estimates are closer to reality. Mawer10 (talk) 13:23, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
