Former Portugal: My colonies are spread across every continent, my gold is endless, and I am the most powerful country in the world. Portugal now: choose your language: Portuguese (Brazil)
Yes. Also non-Portuguese people, huh perhaps I will learn Portuguese, goes to an App for learning languages. Portuguese (With a Brazilian flag) Brazilian- Portuguese Only two choices lol.
I love how you blanked out parts of the map that were unknown to the Portugese at the time. Really lets you see how much of the world was a mystery in the 16th century, and the gradually expanding horizon of knowledge
It's even better on the Columbus ones - Columbus didn't discover any "new lands" he discovered some islands. He had no idea that North and South America were there!
Brazil’s rapid population growth and their density throughout history. Brazil’s area - 3,266,584 square miles PPSM = People per square mile 1550 - 15,000 people (0.005 PPSM) 1600 - 100,000 people (0.03 PPSM) 1660 - 184,000 people (0.06 PPSM) 1700 - 300,000 people (0.09 PPSM) 1766 - 1,500,000 people (0.46 PPSM) 1800 - 3,250,000 people (0.99 PPSM) 1850 - 7,256,000 people (2.22 PPSM) 1890 - 14,333,915 people (4.39 PPSM) 1920 - 30,635,605 people (9.38 PPSM) 1940 - 41,236,315 people (12.62 PPSM) 1960 - 70,119,071 people (21.47 PPSM) 1980 - 119,070,865 people (36.45 PPSM) 2000 - 169,544,443 people (51.90 PPSM) 2022 - 216,370,732 people (66.24 PPSM) Fun fact: Nigeria despite being around 1/9 the size of Brazil still have more people than all of Brazil. Both countries climate are similar, being that they are both tropical.
I'm a Brazilian historian. As you can see at 4:46, the Portuguese extended their territory beyond the Treaty of Tordesilhas. That's because they were part of the Iberian Union, when the frontiers of colonies were somewhat ignored.
And this is the sad part of Brazilian history. All major changes: status of united kingdom, independence, republic, were not made by popular desire but by rulers.
It's crazy to put in perspective that Portugal of 10 million had 220 million people speaks their language. Meanwhile, Netherlands has 17 million people can't compete along with Germany and Austria for German, Russian for Russian or even Arabic. Portugal left a huge impact and influence in the world.
@Marcelo Mazocco it's ironic that Portuguese people are complaining of Brazil's influence on their country and that Brazilian Portuguese is the trend. That's reverse colonialism of one's very own creation 😂
You can thank the germs for that. The indigenous peoples of the Americas died in large numbers from the infectious diseases that were brought by European settlers. Because of that, the current population are mostly descended from settlers and slaves. These do not speak the indigenous languages, so it's English, Spanish and Portugese. By contrast, the former colonies in Africa and Asia did have immunity, so the inhabitants were not decimated by these diseases. After independence, they could drop the language of the colonizer.
The fall of brazilian rubber exportation was caused by a plant fungal disease, and an interesting fact about it is that even Henry Ford, who came to Brazil and founded a city called "Fordlândia" in Pará state was economically affected by such disease, due to his need of rubber to produce tires. Another interesting fact was the steal of rubber seeds by an english explorator to bring for Malaysia.This is the reason of why there are rubber plants in Asia.
The French have always been the bad guys as well as the British. Macron was suggesting publicly. The other day, that the Amazon should be taken away from Brazil. France has limited and boycotted Brazil’s growth since its creation and is one of the most ruthless colonial powers
@@rodrigomoratto Let's agree that this whole Amazon thing was a big fuss and that things could be calmer if Bolsonaro wasn't so warlike and difficult to deal with, let's not forget that France is one of o the greatest allies of Brazil in Europe
I had a relative who went with the 25,000 brazilians to WWII. As a logistics operator he used to smuggle food from the army to italian women when his superiors weren't looking. And as he was always on the logistics side, driving cars and carrying supplies, he was always supporting men in the front but not actually engaging, and he saw many young soldiers dying of confusion in the front line simply by not knowing what they were doing amidst so many loud noises and explosions.
It is so incredible how Portugal left an huge influence in all corners of the world, such as: Brazil, Timor Leste, Mozambique, Angola, Macau, Guinea Bissau, Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Príncipe and Goa. They really spreaded their language and descends so far to the point where it is one of the most spoken languages in the world
This was not by Portugal, was by us, brazilians, whom spreaded the language over the world. Today Portugal has none influence over the lusophonic world, and then they complain about us in their country because of this.
@@wfg-eo6km What? No, Portugal spread the language to Brazil, Portugal was the one to spread their language all across the globe, Brazil has never really spread the Brazilian language, it may have a little bit, Uruguay (Still, Uruguay speaks Spanish) but the majority was spread by Portugal through conquest of various territories in multiple continents.
@@ta9558 Brazilian preserved the old speak portuguese sytle, even the Galicians base the Brazilian dialects to recover their language. So yeah, Brazil have a impact on here too.
Actually, the land wasn't called "Brazil" right away. The 1st name given was "Land of the Holy Cross - Terra de Santa Cruz". Then it was shortened to "Santa Cruz". For a time it was named "Land of the Parrots - Terra dos Papagaios", then, "Brazil". By the 1940's, the country changed the Z for the S: BRASIL - the way Brasileiros - Brazilians - call this beautiful land.
Throughout history, France tried to colonize Brazil 10 times! All through invasions, but all to no avail. Brazil has always been "the hot boy" for France, even today the two countries don't get along.
It is. Brazil is historically pretty quiet and little imperialist. There are many military coups in our history, with some moments in them bloodier than others, but in general they were all put in and out without blood.
Yeah, not too bad. Just your average decimation of the local people, culture and their lands with a new country built on the backs of 700,000 slaves and a few military coups and minor wars. Pretty chill.
The video is about Brazil. I think you should use Brazilian portuguese terms. Mercosur is spanish. The right Brazilian term is Mercosul. I'm being picky because I love your channel. And, as a Brazilian, I'm excited that you chose my country's history to talk about.
In English it is referred to as Mercosur and the video is aimed at English speakers. The Portuguese spelling would only be relevant as a footnote at best. It makes as little sense as it would demanding that they write BraSil - with an "S" - "just because" it's the way it's spelt in Portuguese.
Brazil is like the US, it has become bigger, more powerful, and more important in the world than its former colonizer. At the moment, Portugal itself does not play a major role within the EU, and wages in Portugal are at the level of the Eastern European countries
@@Ogeroigres no wonder... Europeans can book a 50 euro flight to Lisbon or Porto. It's a cheap summer destination only an hour or 2 away from their home countries. Location, location, location.

In 8:02 you missed an information: Portugal only reconized the independence of Brazil after a war in 1823 in the region of the former capital Salvador. There, in July 2, the brazilians expeled the reminecents portuguese soldiers that refused to leave the country. Beyond that, great video!
A nice tidbit of curiosity is that in 1817 the Pernambuco state was the first to pass the conspiracy fase to a full blow revolution fase. That end up on Pernambuco declaring his independence on march 6 becoming the country of Pernambuco. Being later defeated by Portugal in march 20. A short lived independence but it marks Pernambuco as the first estate to declare independence from Portugal and to set a spark on the later independence of Brazil.
Excellent. It summarizes well the history of my country with its ups and downs. There are lots of interesting details skipped over but those would likely make the video too long.
Here in Recife, due the netherlands conquest, were preserved the "mansions" (you can search for casarões of recife), but much of our infrastructure, was made by the Dutch. Including the bridges they made are used to this day, having punctual revitalizations, there was even a case with the "tower bridge" (ponte da torre) that if there was an attempt to be demolished, used dynamite to knock it down but remained intact, and is there to this day. They made so many bridges that recife gets the nickname of "brazillian venice"
Dutch buildings in Recife'???? My dear Hugo, the mansions (casarões) are from the 19th century. My Dear Hugo..Are You Sure... About "infrastructure, was made by the Dutch. Including the bridges" Do you mean the wood bridge? Is Still Intact!! Kkkkk!!! Do you want to know more about the beauty of the WIC Invasion...ua-cam.com/video/LiwKNXS7vR8/v-deo.html
@@SrBebbo that's correct..After the "carrot heads-cabeças de cenoura" have been defeated and expelled (1625).

Some suggestions: - 3:23 It would be cool to mention how it came to happen, that Henry was a cardinal and only ascended to the throne due to an ill-fated expedition of his heirless nephew Sebastian into Moroccan territory. And how the young fallen king became the center of legends and myths regarding his possible "return". - 3:43 The territories of Belgium, Luxembourg and Franche-Comté should be in yellow tio as they were part of the Spanish Empire as well - 4:13 Could have mentioned the importance of tobacco crops as well in this periods. Just like sugar, it was exchanged for slaves with the kingdom of Kongo - 6:00 Missed any mention to the first major movement for Brazilian independence: Inconfidência Mineira - 8:38 Missed any mention to the instability of the Brazilian Empire with secession wars across its territory. Specially the Ragamuffin War, that had Rio Grande do Sul breakup into an independent republic for 10 years. - 8:58 This ban on slave trade was all but nominal, being thoroughly ignored by traders, and continued well into the near end of the empire. Brazil's path to abolition was more complicated, with the passing of restrictive laws (free womb, sexagenaries) that were often barely respected and barely enforced. The imperial family tried to balance pressures for abolition that came from Europe (specially Britain) from outside with those coming from within, namely from the conservative rural elite for whom the privileges and nobility titles given by the emperor (Brazil had a lot of "barons" and "viscounts") were not enough. Hence, unlike in the United States, abolition wasn't an all at once episode and didn't generate into a war. It was a much longer process of degradation of a production system and the political entity (monarchy) that relied on it. The new republican government, however, would do little to change things and Brazil would continue to depend almost completely on its archaic agro-exporter model well into the 1930's - 11:15 - Wasn't a nickname. Was a nobility title received by his father yet in the monarchy. Many in the traditional Brazilian elite liked to keep those titles even though they no longer had a real meaning. - 12:52 Vargas's most important achievement and the reason for his popularity was the promulgation of the first labour laws in the country, that still exist today. - 12:56 It would be nice to mention the Constitutional Revolution of 1932 in São Paulo. It was the largest internal conflict in all history of the Brazilian republic. So important that it's known abroad as "Brazilian Civil War" - 13:54 Goulart didn't become president in 1961, he was elected vice-president (each was chosen separately back then) of Jânio Quadros, who resigned after less than one year in office. The reforms intended by Goulart didn't come to pass due to opposition of the more conservative members of the Congress and his cabinet. He also moved Brazil briefly into a parliamentary regime, with Tancredo Neves as PM, before being deposed by the 1964 coup. - 14:23 Castelo Branco, a ww2 veteran, promised to return power to civilians and hold elections I 1965. However, when he was replaced by general Costa e Silva, member of a hard-core faction of the army autoproclaimed "The Army of Caxias", those were canceled, and the regime reached its most repressive and authotitarian stage, in which the president, chosen by an inner council, ruled through Institutional Acts. - 14:29 It does open up to some foreign investment, but it's nowhere close to liberalism. Actually, specially during Ernesto Geisel's term, many state-owned companies are created, specially in the sectors of extraction of natural resources and energy. Working for one of them or directly for the government was the best career one could have back in those days. - 15:20 Brazil only had a democratic elected president in 1990: Fernando Collor de Melo, impeached in 1992 after seizing people's bank savings and for corruption. His successor, Itamar Franco, appointed Fernando Henrique Cardoso as finance minister: he was the mastermind behind the creation of a strong currency (real) that is still used today, and received most of the credit for ending hyperinflation for good. In 1994, FHC was elected president. He carried out a liberal government aimed to diminish the size of the State and introduced re-election (that didn't exist in Brazil before). He ran for office and won again in 1998, but his second term was less shiny, undergoing a grave economic crisis in 2000-2002 that resulted even in power outings (apagões) across the country. - 16:08 Rousseff's second term problem was much less related to the World Cup and Summer Olympics expenses than it was to the government interference on the prices of fuel (a measure used to lift her popularity and assure her re-election in 2014, already after the WC), which was disastrous for Petrobras, the huge state-owned Brazilian oil company. There was also a political component that contributed to the impeachment: an institutional crisis stemming from the public non-acceptance of 2014's electoral results by the main defeated candidate Aecio Neves, and his party PSDB, and the excessive power of the old catch-all party MDB, that held the most important key positions in the government: head of the Lower House, head of the Senate and vice-president. As MDB veered more towards the opposition ideologically and in terms of interest, more the political crisis deepened, which culminated with the ousting of Rousseff, being replaced by Michel Temer, who readily changed the government's policies towards liberalism. - 16:28 It would be nice and considerate to the victims, to mention how Brazil lost 700k people (more than it lost in all wars it participated combined) during the Covid pandemics, in part due to the horrible mismanagement of the situation by the government and the constant denial of its gravity by the president, who obstructed prevention measures for most of the emergency, claiming it would hurt the economy. In the end, his approach resulted in both a demographic and economic disaster, and became one of the chief reasons why Jair Bolsonaro became the first president to ever lose a second run after re-election was instituted.
Hello ! I am a Brazillian. It´s amazing praisable how our history has been sinthesyzed in 17 minutes. Good Job ! Just an observation: the music played in between the chápters aren´t Brazilian. They are Caribean: mambo, merengue or salsa. Not Samba. But still, that´s a lot for your pioneer work !!!
"The sea with an end can be Greek or Roman, but the endless sea is Portuguese" "O salty sea, how much of your salt / are tears of Portugal! / For us to cross you, how many mothers cried! / How many sons in vain prayed! / How many maidens remained unmarroed / so that you could be ours, o sea!

@@VictorPMarcos The Portuguese did not discover Australia. There were people living there for 60,000 years before Europeans arrived. We must stop having a Eurocentric view of history; it is is inaccurate, dangerous and insulting.

O Brasil teve um grande período como Império, antes disso foi governado por um monarca europeu que transferiu a capital do Império Português para o Rio de Janeiro após a invasão de Napoleão. Ele relutou em voltar o quanto pode, pois sabia que o verdadeiro império português seria construído em terras brasileiras. Nosso segundo imperador foi um grande homem, inteligente e muito do seu planejamento existe até hoje. Seu reinado foi um dos mais longos na história. Hoje Dom Pedro II é recordado em quase todas as cidades com nomes de escolas, universidades e avenidas.
Como Brasileiro, devo citar aqui algumas correções do meu ponto de vista: • O video dá a entender todo o tempo que os portugueses colonos "descobriram" tudo sobre nós, enquanto que na verdade os POVOS ORIGINÁRIOS tinham muito conhecimento desta terra a milhares de anos atrás, apesar de não terem desenvolvido civilização nível inca ou maia. Então é errôneo atribuir aos europeus a "descoberta", ignorando a importância indígena que já habitavam o Brasil muito antes. • Atualmente, vivemos uma forte "polarização política" desde 2013 entre progressistas e conservadores, apresentando certas discordâncias ou visões distintas referente a alguns fatos de nossa história. Os debates/polêmicas mais notórios são a ditadura militar e a era Lula: para um progressista de esquerda, a ditadura militar foi o período mais sombrio da nossa história, enquanto que o governo Lula foi o melhor governo que já existiu; mas para um conservador de direita, a ditadura militar não foi necessariamente uma ditadura (embora haja alguns que concordam com a versão tradicional), e que o governo Lula foi o governo mais corrupto da história de nosso país. Os comentários abaixo sobre a era Lula representam mais a segunda interpretação, pois eles são mais ativos nas redes sociais que a esquerda progressista. • A era Bolsonaro se enquadra com no mesmo eixo do tópico anterior, com os Bolsonaristas (denominação dos seguidores do presidente) defendendo e passando pano em quase tudo o que ele diz, enquanto que os Petistas (oposição que ganhou a eleição 2022 com o Lula) o enxerga como a pior pessoa que já pisou no país, além de defender seu ídolo político Lula.
Basta ver os números. O Lula baixou a régua do IBGE para tirar 22 milhões de pessoas da pobreza. Bolsonaro, apesar de toda perseguição, conseguiu um ótimo resultado. Distribuiu mais de 420 mil títulos de terras, por exemplo. Mais que Lula FHC Dilma combinados.
"Coffee Republic" is locally called "República do Café com Leite" which happens to be the alternation in power between Minas Gerais and São Paulo, due to the production of Coffee (Café) and Milk (Leite). That's where the White part (around 12:45) comes from.
14:03 Just a small mistake. Goulart never managed to expropriate estates. He proposed it but was coup before action. About the ending part with Lula’s and Dilma’s mandates. I believe it’s just too recent for people to have a consensus over
Curiosity: The republic between 1892 and 1930 is called "The coffee and milk republic", because the state of São Paulo, that was the larger producer of coffee, and the state of Minas Gerais, producing milk, they we're so strong that they made a relay, each election appointing their candidate to president, always winning.
Portugal was an explorer and never developed the country, or the country never had this mentality. Just poor Latina America vibes today. Keep up the excellent work.
Let's see what Portugal did with Brazil's gold..... It is often asked what did the Portuguese do with so much gold? Contrary to what other Europeans did, Portugal built and invested in the colonies. That's why around 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites were built by the Portuguese around the world, which no one else has done, except perhaps Spain. Many of these remains have been considered by UNESCO as having “exceptional universal value” and, as such, classified as World Heritage Sites. In November 2012, the World Heritage List already had 26 Portuguese-influenced properties, spread across 18 countries on 4 continents, with many others on the Tentative Lists of several countries. In Brazil alone, there are 9 sites classified as World Heritage Sites. As a result of a historical process of universal dimension, as was the case of the Portuguese expansion that began in the 15th century, the material and immaterial testimonies of Portuguese occupation and domination in various regions of the world today constitute a heritage of recognized historical and incalculable cultural value. there is an architectural heritage of incalculable value built by Portugal. If you go see the architectural heritage left by Portugal around the world, you will be impressed. In countries like , Morocco, Brazil, Ghana, Bahrain, Mozambique, Angola, India, Iran, Kenya, Oman, Sri Lanka, Malasia, China and many others, you will see how many of them have world heritage sites or candidates for such, that's where many of the resources and gold of the colonies went. and by the way, for the leftists, don't come here with the narrative of the oppressed peoples and how European colonialism was very bad, because for your information in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, there was also this "colonialism" where people conquer other peoples, this happened to the Romans and Carthaginians, Greeks, Persians, Muslims, Suevi, Vandals, Mongols, etc, etc, etc.
@@danielabenettisantana412 Esses devem ter sido os Ingleses ou os holandeses que traficavam escravos em navios com bandeira Portuguesa mas de qualquer das formas a escravatura sempre existiu ao longo dos seculos e em carias culturas, os otomanos não traficavam escravos negros?? E os egípcios tb não, e os romanos e os vikings por serem brancos já não há problema?? Gente sem noção nenhuma da história da humanidade continuam a cair na velha história de que os africanos e sul americanos são uns coitadinhos, essa vitimização é extremamente discriminatória, eu se fosse dessas culturas tinha vergonha dessa vitimização constante. Você conhece algum continente onde tenha existido mais guerras, violencia, revoluções invasões, etc do que na europa ou medio oriente?? E não vê essa gente sempre com a mesma narrativa da vitimizaçao.
@@danielabenettisantana412 Existe uma corrente anti-europeia que empola tudo o que estes faziam de errado e desculpa e ignora tudo o que os outros fizeram. Mas vamos começar mesmo pelo princípio. 200 e tal anos, depois de Cristo, toda a bacia do mediterrâneo adoptou a religião cristã como maioritária. Mesmo com perseguições do império romano, uma grande parte dos habitantes do império aderiram a esta de forma pacífica. Era mais popular do que as religiões antigas. Uns anos depois, surge a religião islâmica na Arábia. Lança uma "jiad" ou guerra santa contra as terras cristãs que ocupa e, consequentemente, impõe a religião muçulmana com diversas medidas. Os não-muçulmanos podiam ser escravizados e não tinham direito a qualquer cargo público. Eram estrangeiros na sua própria terra. Ocuparam a península ibérica onde fizeram o mesmo. Até hoje não se desculparam e a organização "estado islâmico" tem como objectivo, no século XXI, reocupar a península e acabar com o cristianismo. De qualquer forma, nunca li ninguém no Quora a condenar a Arábia saudita por essa invasão e anulação de cultura, destruição de monumentos, etc. Também tem de ser dito que trouxeram inovações. A Europa reagiu, a península ibérica voltou a ser governada por cristãos e a descriminação passou a ser exercida aos que aderiram à religião imposta anteriormente. Surgiram as cruzadas que tinham como objetivo libertar territórios invadidos por estes. (Lembro que só em partes do norte da Europa é que o cristianismo foi imposto, até então.) Na altura, constituem-se impérios com os lucros do comércio do oriente, que atravessava a Ásia até chegar à Europa. A Europa financiava a sua própria destruição tanto que o império romano do oriente definhava. Chegamos a 1415 com a conquista de Ceuta e o início da expansão ibérica. Ceuta tinha uma atitude predatória nos navios que atravessassem o estreito de Gibraltar, assim como era recorrente o ataque à costa dos países cristãos para saquear, matar e obter escravos. Não era só Ceuta mas outras cidades estado da costa africana. Os portugueses começaram a conquistar essas cidades, como medida de auto proteção e vão repor a religião cristã. Exploram a costa africana onde entram no mercado de escravos milenar já praticado pelos muçulmanos e pelos romanos, anteriormente. Só que desta vez, com navios, vão mais perto da fonte, com as feitorias na costa. Tem contactos com o reino do Congo, que se converte ao cristianismo e o rei e os príncipes são aceites como nobres na Europa. Portugal chega à Índia e entra em choque com os mercadores muçulmanos que não queriam perder o negócio. Conquista cidades estado, derrota os turcos aliados aos venezianos, que queriam manter o monopólio do comércio. Ora fazia alianças com os povos locais ou conquistava quem lhe era hostil, como era normal no resto do planeta. O que é omitido é que a maioria dos contactos foram pacíficos. Os portugueses ofereciam proteção, traziam inovações e uma religião mais benevolente, tanto é que mesmo em locais onde não tem presença e os poderes locais não exterminaram as pessoas que aderiram à cultura e à religião (Japão e outros.) existem pessoas que se identificam como portugueses. Na América do sul, estabeleceram-se em comunidades que eram favoráveis aos portugueses. Essas comunidades receberam a cultura portuguesa, adoptaram a religião e ouve uma mistura da população. As tribos hostis foram combatidas na esmagadora maioria pelas tribos favoráveis aos portugueses e eram, considerados portugueses. Da Europa eram apenas umas dezenas que entretanto deram formação militar europeia e armamento aos "portugueses" do Brasil. A Espanha invadiu impérios na América central e do sul. O que eu nunca li foi alguém a considerar genocídio, a destruição de civilizações menores com requintes de malvadez, com base numa religião que exigia milhares de sacrifícios humanos. Os espanhóis também tiveram um amplo apoio dos povos subjugados por essas potências. Facilmente um povo adere a uma religião de uma potência que tráz maravilhas tecnológicas e explica que na religião deles, não é preciso sacrificar os filhos para ter boas colheitas, basta rezar. E por fim vamos ao século XIX. No fim deste dá-se a partilha de África pelas potências europeias. Já existe o quinino que permite aos europeus, explorar o interior de África. Até então Portugal, tinha uma presença que se expandiu pouco para longe da costa. Territórios como Cabinda conseguem ser um protetorado português. Escrevo conseguem porque o Congo não conseguiu. Ficou para a Bélgica que impôs medidas draconianas aos locais. Resumindo e concluindo, as potências europeias, com ênfase em Portugal e Espanha, são arrastadas pela lama por pseudo-historiadores parciais que exigem destes, que tivessem uma moral do século XXI, centenas de anos antes desta era. Ignoram o resto da história mundial, o comportamento normal dos seres humanos na sua evolução até ao estado atual. Ignoram que os escravos trazidos para as américas eram, no princípio, os "sortudos" que não foram chacinados quando uma tribo mais forte, destruiu uma mais fraca. Os europeus também tiveram oportunidade de fazer isso. O que não faltou foi guerras entre estados europeus. Nalguns casos até aconteceu. A palavra "escravo" deriva de "eslavo". A expansão portuguesa e espanhola foram um marco no fim de comportamentos bárbaros que tinham deixado de existir há milhares de anos no continente europeu e asiático. Não eram perfeitos e tinham comportamentos também bárbaros para os nossos padrões atuais. Escravatura, intolerância religiosa, belicismo… só que, mesmo assim, eram muito mais humanos que os outros, tirando alguma tribo com costumes pacíficos que tenha sobrevivido às outras. Em milhares de anos de escravatura, sacrifícios rituais de seres humanos por diversos motivos. Foram os europeus, com especial contributo de Portugal e Espanha, e não outro povo qualquer a avançar a humanidade para esta sociedade atual. Desculparem-se porquê? Querem reconstruir os templos da cidade do México e voltar a usá-los da mesma forma que eram usados antes do espanhóis? E que tal atacar, matar e comer os fulanos da cidade do lado?

Brazillian here: loved the video, but I just want to expand on one subject (11:00). It wasn't just São Paulo attracting immigrants. that was a state policy to, literally, that was in our constitution, "make the population more white". We received big colonies from Germany and Poland in the south, we have the biggest population of Italians outside Italy, Japanese outside japan, Lithuanians, Turkish... not every white, but they were accepting any non-African people. That's one of the biggest reasons we have so much racism today, and so many black people are still the poorest in the country. other curiosities: - we had a real life Mulan (Maria Quitéria - goes to the army dressed as a man, and people discover, she was so good that the emperor gave her a platoon with just women soldiers, something that wasn't even allowed). - when our emperor declared our independence from Portugal, he was coming back from his mistress house, stopping along the way because he had diarrhea. in one of these stops, someone tells him that his father, the king of Portugal, demands his return to Europe. he stayed in Brazil, declared independence, and had a shit again. - but his father wasn't mad at him. in fact before his father traveled back to Europe, he said to Pedro: if someone tries to declare independence, you do it first. - Deodoro da Fonseca, the guy who gave the coup to make the republic, was a monarchist and personal friend of the emperor, a few hours before he even slapped a soldier that scream "republic!". he just wanted to depose the "minister of defense" at the time. But 2 guys said him the emperor named a new minister, a guy who had dated a woman he was in love with 10 years before... and then he declared the republic. and it was a lie, the emperor had named anyone. - Joao Goulart, the one who was in power in 1964 before the military coup, wasn't elected president, but the vice president. the president, Janio Quadros, had stepped out from office thinking that people wouldn't accept, so he would come back "at the arms of the people". no one gave a single fuck, we didn't have even a small protest in support of him. and other bizarre things.
Great video but I miss highlighting how much blood was shredded, how much violence, and how slavery has impacted Brazil's history. Is sad to see that Brazil was explored for centuries to enrich Portugal
Brasil was Portugal. That narrative is teached in brazilian schools to create a sence of identity. The reality is that if you apply that logic in other cases, then we could also say that the Romans exploited the whole empire when no, they actually developed those places and yes, those place were Roman territories. Simple. Brasil as a colony was not Brasil, it was Portugal. Portugal had every right to exploit their own land.
@@FNDMA Sad to see that 2023 we still have this colonialist type of thinking. Maybe is what they teaches you in Portugal, but your are mistaken. When a group of people invade someone else’s land, kill and slavery the locals, force down their religion, take the gold and goods to their country, I can’t see how is their right. Funny enough the only reason Portugal called Brazil part of Portugal was because they were afraid of Napoleon, what a brave country.
@@davi-alves dude we beat Napolean’s ass so hard 3 battles were enough to put his war out of its misery...and in fact Portugal is the only European country that could say they were not afraid of Napolean and France. The reason why Napolean invaded Portugal was because he demanded all of Europe to close market doors to Britain and the only country that refused such demands was Portugal, even Spain opened their legs to France closed doors to Britain and let the French pass its all land to attack Portugal...well let’s just say Portugal is simply unconquerable we kick them out real quick the Spanish already knew Portugal is simply someone not to fuck with the French learned it the hard way.
Nah bro it’s not lula who took 20m out of poverty, it was for other reasons internationally, that gave Brazil a huge oportunity of exporting a lot of things, and all lula did was cooperate, and this was the time that Latin America most grew (Brazil was one who grew the least actually) this “oportunity” that I said is called the commodities boom, and plus the Iraq war, all lula did was coop with the situation and let Brazil grow, not including him being the biggest corrupt president on our history.
Juts remember that it wasn’t the dictatorship that brought wealth and safety to the country. It was a lot of reasons internationally and the country opening up to trade (as so many other countries did)
Brazil is a complicated place politically. One statement stands true for all countries. Politicians are not for the the people, they are for themselves. All self-serving. They may start thinking of others and their country but inevitably they find power is wonderful (and corrupts the soul). Sad. I love Brazil and the warm friendly people.
Yep, it sounds like he was either rushing to the end or was just ignoring history to leave an wrong impression about Lula, the 20 million of poverty only came when the standart/definition of poverty itself was lowered, and the 8 years of Lula are known for having no reform whatsoever in the economy, even when many economists advised him to do so because many of the systems created at the 1988 constitution were unsustainable, from 2002-2015 the economic bases of Brazil was welfare programs and massive public spending on infrastructure but more than half of the works the government started didn't finished because of corruption, costing R$1 trillion to our coffers.

That's the portuguese speaking population. The natives start at around 2M and today are 400k.
Brazil is much more geographically diverse, with wetlands, semi-deserts, highland mountain ranges, and temperate lowlands.
I'm a Brazilian historian. As you can see at 4:46, the Portuguese extended their territory beyond the Treaty of Tordesilhas. That's because they were part of the Iberian Union, when the frontiers of colonies were somewhat ignored.
Wasn't the treaty of Tordesillas just some kind of starting rule ? It was completely ignored at some point.

You can thank the germs for that.
The indigenous peoples of the Americas died in large numbers from the infectious diseases that were brought by European settlers. Because of that, the current population are mostly descended from settlers and slaves. These do not speak the indigenous languages, so it's English, Spanish and Portugese.
By contrast, the former colonies in Africa and Asia did have immunity, so the inhabitants were not decimated by these diseases. After independence, they could drop the language of the colonizer.
The fall of brazilian rubber exportation was caused by a plant fungal disease, and an interesting fact about it is that even Henry Ford, who came to Brazil and founded a city called "Fordlândia" in Pará state was economically affected by such disease, due to his need of rubber to produce tires. Another interesting fact was the steal of rubber seeds by an english explorator to bring for Malaysia.This is the reason of why there are rubber plants in Asia.

And as he was always on the logistics side, driving cars and carrying supplies, he was always supporting men in the front but not actually engaging, and he saw many young soldiers dying of confusion in the front line simply by not knowing what they were doing amidst so many loud noises and explosions.
It is so incredible how Portugal left an huge influence in all corners of the world, such as: Brazil, Timor Leste, Mozambique, Angola, Macau, Guinea Bissau, Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Príncipe and Goa.

Always nice to see another Geo History Video!
The video is about Brazil.
I think you should use Brazilian portuguese terms.
Mercosur is spanish.
The right Brazilian term is Mercosul.
I'm being picky because I love your channel.
And, as a Brazilian, I'm excited that you chose my country's history to talk about.
In English it is referred to as Mercosur and the video is aimed at English speakers. The Portuguese spelling would only be relevant as a footnote at best.
It makes as little sense as it would demanding that they write BraSil - with an "S" - "just because" it's the way it's spelt in Portuguese.
We dno't speak spanish,we speak portuguese here in brasil

In 8:02 you missed an information: Portugal only reconized the independence of Brazil after a war in 1823 in the region of the former capital Salvador. There, in July 2, the brazilians expeled the reminecents portuguese soldiers that refused to leave the country. Beyond that, great video!
A nice tidbit of curiosity is that in 1817 the Pernambuco state was the first to pass the conspiracy fase to a full blow revolution fase. That end up on Pernambuco declaring his independence on march 6 becoming the country of Pernambuco. Being later defeated by Portugal in march 20. A short lived independence but it marks Pernambuco as the first estate to declare independence from Portugal and to set a spark on the later independence of Brazil.
This was so educational.
History is difficult to listen to.
So unfair.
You are very talented at making excellent videos!
Muito boa a apresentação de nossa história. Nós brasileiros somos muito gratos.
Excellent. It summarizes well the history of my country with its ups and downs. There are lots of interesting details skipped over but those would likely make the video too long.
Here in Recife, due the netherlands conquest, were preserved the "mansions" (you can search for casarões of recife), but much of our infrastructure, was made by the Dutch. Including the bridges they made are used to this day, having punctual revitalizations, there was even a case with the "tower bridge" (ponte da torre) that if there was an attempt to be demolished, used dynamite to knock it down but remained intact, and is there to this day.

Olhem lá os paraíbas falando inglês entre eles kkkkkkkkk
Some suggestions:
- 3:23 It would be cool to mention how it came to happen, that Henry was a cardinal and only ascended to the throne due to an ill-fated expedition of his heirless nephew Sebastian into Moroccan territory. And how the young fallen king became the center of legends and myths regarding his possible "return".
- 3:43 The territories of Belgium, Luxembourg and Franche-Comté should be in yellow tio as they were part of the Spanish Empire as well
- 4:13 Could have mentioned the importance of tobacco crops as well in this periods. Just like sugar, it was exchanged for slaves with the kingdom of Kongo
- 6:00 Missed any mention to the first major movement for Brazilian independence: Inconfidência Mineira
- 8:38 Missed any mention to the instability of the Brazilian Empire with secession wars across its territory. Specially the Ragamuffin War, that had Rio Grande do Sul breakup into an independent republic for 10 years.
- 8:58 This ban on slave trade was all but nominal, being thoroughly ignored by traders, and continued well into the near end of the empire. Brazil's path to abolition was more complicated, with the passing of restrictive laws (free womb, sexagenaries) that were often barely respected and barely enforced. The imperial family tried to balance pressures for abolition that came from Europe (specially Britain) from outside with those coming from within, namely from the conservative rural elite for whom the privileges and nobility titles given by the emperor (Brazil had a lot of "barons" and "viscounts") were not enough. Hence, unlike in the United States, abolition wasn't an all at once episode and didn't generate into a war. It was a much longer process of degradation of a production system and the political entity (monarchy) that relied on it. The new republican government, however, would do little to change things and Brazil would continue to depend almost completely on its archaic agro-exporter model well into the 1930's
- 11:15 - Wasn't a nickname. Was a nobility title received by his father yet in the monarchy. Many in the traditional Brazilian elite liked to keep those titles even though they no longer had a real meaning.
- 12:52 Vargas's most important achievement and the reason for his popularity was the promulgation of the first labour laws in the country, that still exist today.
- 12:56 It would be nice to mention the Constitutional Revolution of 1932 in São Paulo. It was the largest internal conflict in all history of the Brazilian republic. So important that it's known abroad as "Brazilian Civil War"
- 13:54 Goulart didn't become president in 1961, he was elected vice-president (each was chosen separately back then) of Jânio Quadros, who resigned after less than one year in office. The reforms intended by Goulart didn't come to pass due to opposition of the more conservative members of the Congress and his cabinet. He also moved Brazil briefly into a parliamentary regime, with Tancredo Neves as PM, before being deposed by the 1964 coup.
- 14:23 Castelo Branco, a ww2 veteran, promised to return power to civilians and hold elections I 1965. However, when he was replaced by general Costa e Silva, member of a hard-core faction of the army autoproclaimed "The Army of Caxias", those were canceled, and the regime reached its most repressive and authotitarian stage, in which the president, chosen by an inner council, ruled through Institutional Acts.
- 14:29 It does open up to some foreign investment, but it's nowhere close to liberalism. Actually, specially during Ernesto Geisel's term, many state-owned companies are created, specially in the sectors of extraction of natural resources and energy. Working for one of them or directly for the government was the best career one could have back in those days.
- 15:20 Brazil only had a democratic elected president in 1990: Fernando Collor de Melo, impeached in 1992 after seizing people's bank savings and for corruption. His successor, Itamar Franco, appointed Fernando Henrique Cardoso as finance minister: he was the mastermind behind the creation of a strong currency (real) that is still used today, and received most of the credit for ending hyperinflation for good. In 1994, FHC was elected president. He carried out a liberal government aimed to diminish the size of the State and introduced re-election (that didn't exist in Brazil before). He ran for office and won again in 1998, but his second term was less shiny, undergoing a grave economic crisis in 2000-2002 that resulted even in power outings (apagões) across the country.
- 16:08 Rousseff's second term problem was much less related to the World Cup and Summer Olympics expenses than it was to the government interference on the prices of fuel (a measure used to lift her popularity and assure her re-election in 2014, already after the WC), which was disastrous for Petrobras, the huge state-owned Brazilian oil company. There was also a political component that contributed to the impeachment: an institutional crisis stemming from the public non-acceptance of 2014's electoral results by the main defeated candidate Aecio Neves, and his party PSDB, and the excessive power of the old catch-all party MDB, that held the most important key positions in the government: head of the Lower House, head of the Senate and vice-president. As MDB veered more towards the opposition ideologically and in terms of interest, more the political crisis deepened, which culminated with the ousting of Rousseff, being replaced by Michel Temer, who readily changed the government's policies towards liberalism.
- 16:28 It would be nice and considerate to the victims, to mention how Brazil lost 700k people (more than it lost in all wars it participated combined) during the Covid pandemics, in part due to the horrible mismanagement of the situation by the government and the constant denial of its gravity by the president, who obstructed prevention measures for most of the emergency, claiming it would hurt the economy. In the end, his approach resulted in both a demographic and economic disaster, and became one of the chief reasons why Jair Bolsonaro became the first president to ever lose a second run after re-election was instituted.

I'm brazilian and I know nothing about our participation in ww1. We know good about our role in ww2, but ww1 is irrelevant
That's what i call a great video!
Very good this video! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
I'd really like 2 or even 3 hour long history of the world video. Who's with me? 🗺
Me!
This is the weirdest country ever.
Only place where you can see norwegians, scots and germans under the dutch fighting a native-portuguese coalition.
*and that's why I lovit*
thanks cool, good video, easy to undertand
Excellent!
Everyone wake up new upload with the best narrator
De hecho Aleixo Garcia, un portugués que aprovechó una incursión guaraní a la frontera oriental del Imperio Incaico adentrandose por Santa catarina y Paraguay para llegar hacia el Chacó y ahi por la actual centro de Bolivia en 1523
More videos like this please there are so many countries and endless content
you did just kind of ignore Brazil's involvement in ww1. Despite it not being that important to the war itself it feels important enough to include.
I mean, they ignored a big part of Pedro's reign as king and the war of Riograndese independence, so I suppose it's a summary video
He 100% ignored the Batalha das Toninhas
Desde esse tempo Brasil odiava a Alemanha
He also ignored the crimes Lula committed
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK but Brazil's involvement in WW1 is literally a joke. Not even metaphorically. It is li-te-ra-ly a f***ing joke
Aaaahh yes begining the History of Brazil with a map of portugal
Missing the Amapá dispute between Brazil 🇧🇷 and French Guiana 🇬🇫🇫🇷(1895 - 1900), and the Pirara dispute between Brazil 🇧🇷 and British Guiana 🇬🇾🇬🇧(1840 - 1904). In the Pirara dispute Brazil 🇧🇷 lost 19.630km to the British 🇬🇧. #essequibo (Pirara Dispute) #republicavelha(Questão do Amapá)
F**k off, it's a summary video, bostileiro
Ese cara domina a geografia completa. Parabéns pelo excelente vídeo. Tinha assistido um sobre o futebol( adorei ) e aproveitei para encontrar alguma coisa sobre meu BR. E encontrei! De mais! 👏👏👏👏👏
What amazes me is how Brazil managed to stay United as big as it is while Latin American was falling apart.
That's mainly because of the Emperor, who kept the political and religious control centralised.
O Brasil teve um grande período como Império, antes disso foi governado por um monarca europeu que transferiu a capital do Império Português para o Rio de Janeiro após a invasão de Napoleão. Ele relutou em voltar o quanto pode, pois sabia que o verdadeiro império português seria construído em terras brasileiras. Nosso segundo imperador foi um grande homem, inteligente e muito do seu planejamento existe até hoje. Seu reinado foi um dos mais longos na história. Hoje Dom Pedro II é recordado em quase todas as cidades com nomes de escolas, universidades e avenidas.
You definitely should post more videos. They are so good
Soy plantations weren't near amazon lands at the beginning. It was in the "cerrado", our type of savanah. It reached amazon forest decades later.

Only 1-2 decades from the 70s timestamp at the time he talked about it on the video. Not much difference to be honest...
Great video. well done!
This is cool! Do you one day you can do Mexico as well?
I would’ve loved history like this when I was in school!
Como Brasileiro, devo citar aqui algumas correções do meu ponto de vista:
• O video dá a entender todo o tempo que os portugueses colonos "descobriram" tudo sobre nós, enquanto que na verdade os POVOS ORIGINÁRIOS tinham muito conhecimento desta terra a milhares de anos atrás, apesar de não terem desenvolvido civilização nível inca ou maia. Então é errôneo atribuir aos europeus a "descoberta", ignorando a importância indígena que já habitavam o Brasil muito antes.
• Atualmente, vivemos uma forte "polarização política" desde 2013 entre progressistas e conservadores, apresentando certas discordâncias ou visões distintas referente a alguns fatos de nossa história. Os debates/polêmicas mais notórios são a ditadura militar e a era Lula: para um progressista de esquerda, a ditadura militar foi o período mais sombrio da nossa história, enquanto que o governo Lula foi o melhor governo que já existiu; mas para um conservador de direita, a ditadura militar não foi necessariamente uma ditadura (embora haja alguns que concordam com a versão tradicional), e que o governo Lula foi o governo mais corrupto da história de nosso país.
Os comentários abaixo sobre a era Lula representam mais a segunda interpretação, pois eles são mais ativos nas redes sociais que a esquerda progressista.
• A era Bolsonaro se enquadra com no mesmo eixo do tópico anterior, com os Bolsonaristas (denominação dos seguidores do presidente) defendendo e passando pano em quase tudo o que ele diz, enquanto que os Petistas (oposição que ganhou a eleição 2022 com o Lula) o enxerga como a pior pessoa que já pisou no país, além de defender seu ídolo político Lula.
Basta ver os números. O Lula baixou a régua do IBGE para tirar 22 milhões de pessoas da pobreza. Bolsonaro, apesar de toda perseguição, conseguiu um ótimo resultado. Distribuiu mais de 420 mil títulos de terras, por exemplo. Mais que Lula FHC Dilma combinados.

@@thebrazillianguytm2186 A bunch of brazilians with broken english. Myself included.
"Coffee Republic" is locally called "República do Café com Leite" which happens to be the alternation in power between Minas Gerais and São Paulo, due to the production of Coffee (Café) and Milk (Leite). That's where the White part (around 12:45) comes from.
14:03
Just a small mistake. Goulart never managed to expropriate estates. He proposed it but was coup before action.
About the ending part with Lula’s and Dilma’s mandates. I believe it’s just too recent for people to have a consensus over
Curiosity: The republic between 1892 and 1930 is called "The coffee and milk republic", because the state of São Paulo, that was the larger producer of coffee, and the state of Minas Gerais, producing milk, they we're so strong that they made a relay, each election appointing their candidate to president, always winning.
Portugal was an explorer and never developed the country, or the country never had this mentality. Just poor Latina America vibes today. Keep up the excellent work.
Let's see what Portugal did with Brazil's gold.....
It is often asked what did the Portuguese do with so much gold? Contrary to what other Europeans did, Portugal built and invested in the colonies. That's why around 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites were built by the Portuguese around the world, which no one else has done, except perhaps Spain.
Many of these remains have been considered by UNESCO as having “exceptional universal value” and, as such, classified as World Heritage Sites. In November 2012, the World Heritage List already had 26 Portuguese-influenced properties, spread across 18 countries on 4 continents, with many others on the Tentative Lists of several countries.
In Brazil alone, there are 9 sites classified as World Heritage Sites.
As a result of a historical process of universal dimension, as was the case of the Portuguese expansion that began in the 15th century, the material and immaterial testimonies of Portuguese occupation and domination in various regions of the world today constitute a heritage of recognized historical and incalculable cultural value.
there is an architectural heritage of incalculable value built by Portugal. If you go see the architectural heritage left by Portugal around the world, you will be impressed. In countries like , Morocco, Brazil, Ghana, Bahrain, Mozambique, Angola, India, Iran, Kenya, Oman, Sri Lanka, Malasia, China and many others, you will see how many of them have world heritage sites or candidates for such, that's where many of the resources and gold of the colonies went.
and by the way, for the leftists, don't come here with the narrative of the oppressed peoples and how European colonialism was very bad, because for your information in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, there was also this "colonialism" where people conquer other peoples, this happened to the Romans and Carthaginians, Greeks, Persians, Muslims, Suevi, Vandals, Mongols, etc, etc, etc.
Wrong
@@pedrocsantos8 PORTUGAL FICOU NA HISTÓRIA COMO O PAÍS QUE MAIS TRAFFIC0U SERES HUMANOS NO MUNDO!!!!!
@@danielabenettisantana412 Esses devem ter sido os Ingleses ou os holandeses que traficavam escravos em navios com bandeira Portuguesa mas de qualquer das formas a escravatura sempre existiu ao longo dos seculos e em carias culturas, os otomanos não traficavam escravos negros?? E os egípcios tb não, e os romanos e os vikings por serem brancos já não há problema?? Gente sem noção nenhuma da história da humanidade continuam a cair na velha história de que os africanos e sul americanos são uns coitadinhos, essa vitimização é extremamente discriminatória, eu se fosse dessas culturas tinha vergonha dessa vitimização constante. Você conhece algum continente onde tenha existido mais guerras, violencia, revoluções invasões, etc do que na europa ou medio oriente?? E não vê essa gente sempre com a mesma narrativa da vitimizaçao.
@@danielabenettisantana412 Existe uma corrente anti-europeia que empola tudo o que estes faziam de errado e desculpa e ignora tudo o que os outros fizeram.
Mas vamos começar mesmo pelo princípio.
200 e tal anos, depois de Cristo, toda a bacia do mediterrâneo adoptou a religião cristã como maioritária. Mesmo com perseguições do império romano, uma grande parte dos habitantes do império aderiram a esta de forma pacífica. Era mais popular do que as religiões antigas.
Uns anos depois, surge a religião islâmica na Arábia. Lança uma "jiad" ou guerra santa contra as terras cristãs que ocupa e, consequentemente, impõe a religião muçulmana com diversas medidas. Os não-muçulmanos podiam ser escravizados e não tinham direito a qualquer cargo público. Eram estrangeiros na sua própria terra.
Ocuparam a península ibérica onde fizeram o mesmo. Até hoje não se desculparam e a organização "estado islâmico" tem como objectivo, no século XXI, reocupar a península e acabar com o cristianismo.
De qualquer forma, nunca li ninguém no Quora a condenar a Arábia saudita por essa invasão e anulação de cultura, destruição de monumentos, etc.
Também tem de ser dito que trouxeram inovações.
A Europa reagiu, a península ibérica voltou a ser governada por cristãos e a descriminação passou a ser exercida aos que aderiram à religião imposta anteriormente.
Surgiram as cruzadas que tinham como objetivo libertar territórios invadidos por estes. (Lembro que só em partes do norte da Europa é que o cristianismo foi imposto, até então.)
Na altura, constituem-se impérios com os lucros do comércio do oriente, que atravessava a Ásia até chegar à Europa. A Europa financiava a sua própria destruição tanto que o império romano do oriente definhava.
Chegamos a 1415 com a conquista de Ceuta e o início da expansão ibérica.
Ceuta tinha uma atitude predatória nos navios que atravessassem o estreito de Gibraltar, assim como era recorrente o ataque à costa dos países cristãos para saquear, matar e obter escravos. Não era só Ceuta mas outras cidades estado da costa africana.
Os portugueses começaram a conquistar essas cidades, como medida de auto proteção e vão repor a religião cristã.
Exploram a costa africana onde entram no mercado de escravos milenar já praticado pelos muçulmanos e pelos romanos, anteriormente. Só que desta vez, com navios, vão mais perto da fonte, com as feitorias na costa.
Tem contactos com o reino do Congo, que se converte ao cristianismo e o rei e os príncipes são aceites como nobres na Europa.
Portugal chega à Índia e entra em choque com os mercadores muçulmanos que não queriam perder o negócio. Conquista cidades estado, derrota os turcos aliados aos venezianos, que queriam manter o monopólio do comércio.
Ora fazia alianças com os povos locais ou conquistava quem lhe era hostil, como era normal no resto do planeta.
O que é omitido é que a maioria dos contactos foram pacíficos. Os portugueses ofereciam proteção, traziam inovações e uma religião mais benevolente, tanto é que mesmo em locais onde não tem presença e os poderes locais não exterminaram as pessoas que aderiram à cultura e à religião (Japão e outros.) existem pessoas que se identificam como portugueses.
Na América do sul, estabeleceram-se em comunidades que eram favoráveis aos portugueses. Essas comunidades receberam a cultura portuguesa, adoptaram a religião e ouve uma mistura da população. As tribos hostis foram combatidas na esmagadora maioria pelas tribos favoráveis aos portugueses e eram, considerados portugueses. Da Europa eram apenas umas dezenas que entretanto deram formação militar europeia e armamento aos "portugueses" do Brasil.
A Espanha invadiu impérios na América central e do sul.
O que eu nunca li foi alguém a considerar genocídio, a destruição de civilizações menores com requintes de malvadez, com base numa religião que exigia milhares de sacrifícios humanos.
Os espanhóis também tiveram um amplo apoio dos povos subjugados por essas potências.
Facilmente um povo adere a uma religião de uma potência que tráz maravilhas tecnológicas e explica que na religião deles, não é preciso sacrificar os filhos para ter boas colheitas, basta rezar.
E por fim vamos ao século XIX. No fim deste dá-se a partilha de África pelas potências europeias. Já existe o quinino que permite aos europeus, explorar o interior de África.
Até então Portugal, tinha uma presença que se expandiu pouco para longe da costa. Territórios como Cabinda conseguem ser um protetorado português. Escrevo conseguem porque o Congo não conseguiu. Ficou para a Bélgica que impôs medidas draconianas aos locais.
Resumindo e concluindo, as potências europeias, com ênfase em Portugal e Espanha, são arrastadas pela lama por pseudo-historiadores parciais que exigem destes, que tivessem uma moral do século XXI, centenas de anos antes desta era.
Ignoram o resto da história mundial, o comportamento normal dos seres humanos na sua evolução até ao estado atual. Ignoram que os escravos trazidos para as américas eram, no princípio, os "sortudos" que não foram chacinados quando uma tribo mais forte, destruiu uma mais fraca.
Os europeus também tiveram oportunidade de fazer isso. O que não faltou foi guerras entre estados europeus. Nalguns casos até aconteceu. A palavra "escravo" deriva de "eslavo".
A expansão portuguesa e espanhola foram um marco no fim de comportamentos bárbaros que tinham deixado de existir há milhares de anos no continente europeu e asiático.
Não eram perfeitos e tinham comportamentos também bárbaros para os nossos padrões atuais. Escravatura, intolerância religiosa, belicismo… só que, mesmo assim, eram muito mais humanos que os outros, tirando alguma tribo com costumes pacíficos que tenha sobrevivido às outras.
Em milhares de anos de escravatura, sacrifícios rituais de seres humanos por diversos motivos. Foram os europeus, com especial contributo de Portugal e Espanha, e não outro povo qualquer a avançar a humanidade para esta sociedade atual.
Desculparem-se porquê?
Querem reconstruir os templos da cidade do México e voltar a usá-los da mesma forma que eram usados antes do espanhóis?
E que tal atacar, matar e comer os fulanos da cidade do lado?

Depois de D. Sebastião, seu tio, D. Henrique, que era um bispo católico, se torna Rei, mas morre sem herdeiros. Daí o trono vai para os Espanhóis.
Brazillian here: loved the video, but I just want to expand on one subject (11:00).
It wasn't just São Paulo attracting immigrants. that was a state policy to, literally, that was in our constitution, "make the population more white". We received big colonies from Germany and Poland in the south, we have the biggest population of Italians outside Italy, Japanese outside japan, Lithuanians, Turkish... not every white, but they were accepting any non-African people. That's one of the biggest reasons we have so much racism today, and so many black people are still the poorest in the country.
other curiosities:
- we had a real life Mulan (Maria Quitéria - goes to the army dressed as a man, and people discover, she was so good that the emperor gave her a platoon with just women soldiers, something that wasn't even allowed).
- when our emperor declared our independence from Portugal, he was coming back from his mistress house, stopping along the way because he had diarrhea. in one of these stops, someone tells him that his father, the king of Portugal, demands his return to Europe. he stayed in Brazil, declared independence, and had a shit again.
- but his father wasn't mad at him. in fact before his father traveled back to Europe, he said to Pedro: if someone tries to declare independence, you do it first.
- Deodoro da Fonseca, the guy who gave the coup to make the republic, was a monarchist and personal friend of the emperor, a few hours before he even slapped a soldier that scream "republic!". he just wanted to depose the "minister of defense" at the time. But 2 guys said him the emperor named a new minister, a guy who had dated a woman he was in love with 10 years before... and then he declared the republic. and it was a lie, the emperor had named anyone.
- Joao Goulart, the one who was in power in 1964 before the military coup, wasn't elected president, but the vice president. the president, Janio Quadros, had stepped out from office thinking that people wouldn't accept, so he would come back "at the arms of the people". no one gave a single fuck, we didn't have even a small protest in support of him.
and other bizarre things.
Great video but I miss highlighting how much blood was shredded, how much violence, and how slavery has impacted Brazil's history. Is sad to see that Brazil was explored for centuries to enrich Portugal
Brasil was Portugal. That narrative is teached in brazilian schools to create a sence of identity. The reality is that if you apply that logic in other cases, then we could also say that the Romans exploited the whole empire when no, they actually developed those places and yes, those place were Roman territories. Simple. Brasil as a colony was not Brasil, it was Portugal. Portugal had every right to exploit their own land.
@@FNDMA Sad to see that 2023 we still have this colonialist type of thinking. Maybe is what they teaches you in Portugal, but your are mistaken. When a group of people invade someone else’s land, kill and slavery the locals, force down their religion, take the gold and goods to their country, I can’t see how is their right. Funny enough the only reason Portugal called Brazil part of Portugal was because they were afraid of Napoleon, what a brave country.
@@davi-alves dude we beat Napolean’s ass so hard 3 battles were enough to put his war out of its misery...and in fact Portugal is the only European country that could say they were not afraid of Napolean and France. The reason why Napolean invaded Portugal was because he demanded all of Europe to close market doors to Britain and the only country that refused such demands was Portugal, even Spain opened their legs to France closed doors to Britain and let the French pass its all land to attack Portugal...well let’s just say Portugal is simply unconquerable we kick them out real quick the Spanish already knew Portugal is simply someone not to fuck with the French learned it the hard way.
HOW DID I MISS THIS 2 WEEKS LATERRRRRRR
fantastic
Nah bro it’s not lula who took 20m out of poverty, it was for other reasons internationally, that gave Brazil a huge oportunity of exporting a lot of things, and all lula did was cooperate, and this was the time that Latin America most grew (Brazil was one who grew the least actually) this “oportunity” that I said is called the commodities boom, and plus the Iraq war, all lula did was coop with the situation and let Brazil grow, not including him being the biggest corrupt president on our history.
😂😂😂😂 delete your comment and get back to your school chair mate, you are embarrassing yourself
Bolsonaro ain't good either
Juts remember that it wasn’t the dictatorship that brought wealth and safety to the country. It was a lot of reasons internationally and the country opening up to trade (as so many other countries did)
Brazil is a complicated place politically. One statement stands true for all countries. Politicians are not for the the people, they are for themselves. All self-serving. They may start thinking of others and their country but inevitably they find power is wonderful (and corrupts the soul). Sad. I love Brazil and the warm friendly people.
Yep, it sounds like he was either rushing to the end or was just ignoring history to leave an wrong impression about Lula, the 20 million of poverty only came when the standart/definition of poverty itself was lowered, and the 8 years of Lula are known for having no reform whatsoever in the economy, even when many economists advised him to do so because many of the systems created at the 1988 constitution were unsustainable, from 2002-2015 the economic bases of Brazil was welfare programs and massive public spending on infrastructure but more than half of the works the government started didn't finished because of corruption, costing R$1 trillion to our coffers.
