Brazil
Brazil has the world's largest forest, the Amazon Rainforest. It makes up 40% of the country's land area. Brazil also has other types of land; there is a type of savanna called cerrado; there is also a dry plant region named caatinga. Caatinga means white vegetation in Tupi, a native language of Brazil.
Brazil is known for soccer, but it also has many other things: a varied culture (influenced by people who have come from many countries), and a growing economy. Its people include people of Portuguese or other European descent, African descent, and native Amerindians, as well as many people of mixed origins. It is known for its numerous rainforests and jungles.The most important cities are San Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Brasília, Curitiba, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre, Recife, Fortaleza, Manaus and Vitória.
People from Brazil are called Brazilians (brasileiros in Brazilian Portuguese language).
CULTURE CAPOEIRA
Capoeira is a unique mix of dance and martial art of Afro-Brazilian origin, combining agile dance moves with unarmed combat techniques. Capoeira in Portuguese literally means "chicken coop". The presence of capoeira in Brazil is directly connected to the importation of African slaves by the Portuguese, and Salvador is considered the centre of origin of the modern capoeira branchesThe initial purpose of Capoeira's emergence was to boost the slaves morale, remind them of their homeland through music and to defend themselves against aggression from their owners.
