First, this blog is all about Brazil. Brazil land, economy, people, politics, just for Brazil. Second, I am to be referred to as "the Brazil Bloomer". Third, I will be stating a dire problem in Brazil, and seeing the possible ways to solve it. (I will state the problem in my next post). But, for now, just sit back, maybe grab a broa, (Brazilian cornbread), and read about Brazil.
Brazil is the 5th largest country in the world, with a vast wetland ( the Pantanal in the south and the Amazon Rainforest and river in the north).

The people from Brazil have a wide variety of ancestors- from Asian to Portuguese. Long ago, Brazil was a colony of Portugal, but then declared itself independent, so now a president (Dilma Rousseff) governs the country. The official language of Brazil is Portuguese, spoken by more than 99% of the Brazilian population. Asians and Europeans also live in Brazil.
Last, the Brazilian politics. As I mentioned before, Brazil is run by a president, who happens to be Dilma Rousseff right now. Brazil has three main branches of government. Judicial, Executive and Legislative, much similar to the USA. This is a LOT of information, and I really don't want to type the whole government set-up, so I will just give you this link to the awesome WIKIPEDIA.

Anyway, I won't just blurb info in my future posts, so don't forsake this blog. But, I do have a lot to type.
Sincerely,
Brazil Bloomer
