I always thought you were Brazilian, but based on you "mapas" pronunciation now I know you are Portuguese. Mate, your English is bloody amazing!! I live in Australia for the longest time and don't speak English that well.
The "various" ethnicity probably means mixed races - a mix of Europeans and Africans. Brazilians are very mixed and even on descendants of immigrants (like me) you can still find genetic traces from all ethnicities. From my family's history alone, I know I'm a descendant of Italians, Portuguese, Africans and natives.

Cheers from Brazil's centre west! Vou procurar um vídeo em seu canal acerca de Portugal. Sou descendente de Portugueses e italianos também.

It's funny how we get so happy and curious when some new video about Brazil drops in any foreign chanel, I think it's because many of us feel like we've been left out when there are so many interesting and unique things about our country.
Amazing video! It's so important to talk about heritage and ethnicity, because foreigners don't have a single idea of how diverse Brazil is when it comes to race. Actually, they have a whole misconception about Latin America overall. Thanks 💛💚💙
Yeah, they tend to put us Latin Americans in the same bubble, and it's so frustrating being that there is so much racial and cultural diversity, for example most Americans think we speak Spanish, it gets me so sad to see that we don't get the recognition we deserve. Cheers de outro Brasileiro!
@@rhuanfidelis755 l don't think most americans do, they are getting used to people saying that Brazil doesn't speak spanish, they might not know the difference between Portuguese and Spanish though, but today, l rarely see a American claiming we speak spanish, they might be bad at Geography/World History but l don't think they will stay that for long.

Brazil sure has all things needed to be a potency, but unfortunately, corruption is a big part of our culture When this corruption poison finally stops infecting our politics as a whole, then the world will truly see our nation's power and prosperity
@@PabloRodriguez-cl4ox Unfortunately this is the case with pretty much all Latin America. We hold so much potential, our history proves it. But I still hope that one day, true visionaries will revitalize our politics, and the parasites who kill and cripple the people for their own greed will be no more. A man can hope. And this goes to all my Latin American brothers
The last map shows that the majority of the lands are private property, but we need to say that brazilians laws are quite intervening. For example, our forest code states that only a percentage of private land can be exploited depending on the biome where it is located, this is called a legal reserve. In some biomes the legal reserve is 20%, but in the Amazon it is 80%, that is, if a rural producer buys a farm in the Amazon he can only use 20% of the land to plant or raise cattle, the other 80% has to remain preserved.
I love the fact that whenever he procounces Brazilian names in Portuguese he pronounces them like a Carioca (from Rio de Janeiro capital). Someone has been doing his homework right. Congrats!
My grandfather of German descent lived in Brazil, because his "German" (Germany did not exist at that time) great-grandfather moved to Brazil fleeing poverty and famine in Europe, and the threat of Napoleon.
Se vocês colocarem legendas em português brasileiro, em breve terão milhões de inscritos, pois, o canal é bom, mas pouquíssimos brasileiros compreendem o inglês.
Pouquíssimos o caralho, talvez sim comparado ao tamanho do população mas o número mesmo de Brasileiros que entendem inglês é muito alto, pode ver que a maioria dos comentários do vídeo são de Brasileiros.
Cara creio que a população mais jovem já tem mais familiaridade com o inglês por causa da globalização que está tendo e o inglês sendo a lingua base para se comunicar com o resto do mundo, não vou mentir q escutar pra mim é um pouco mais difícil de ler, porém nada que abaixar um pouco a velocidade do video ou usar legendas em inglês mesmo
@@rhuanfidelis755 Maioria dos comentários desse vídeo em específico podem sim ter sido feitos por Brasileiros, mas pensa se você chegar numa pessoa aleatória na rua e falar inglês com ela normalmente, as chances de encontrar alguém aposto que são muito pequenas. Na prática duvido que a maioria dos Brasileiros saibam. Aqui na internet fica todo mundo reunido, então da a impressão de que há muitos.
I am a Brazilian, and this video is awesome for everyone that wants to get to know Brazil a little bit better. _Give it up for General Knowledge!_ I'd like to make some additions, though. *Here are some fun facts General Knowledge talked about, and more:* *Climate:* since the video mentioned our climate, I can add that it varies depending on the regions. North, Midwest e Northeast regions are topically very hot. On the other hand, Southeast and South regions are more pleasant. For instance, It can get really hot in Amazonas and really cold in Santa Catarina. As far as I'm concerned, Brazil's climate is not easy, especially in the summer and spring seasons. I've lived in a town that was 40ºC all the time in spring (Quirinópolis, State of Goiás). The city I've been living since 2019 is much more pleasant, but it's still hot-up to 38ºC in spring (Uberlândia, State of Minas Gerais). If you think that is hell, _you certainly don't know the temperature rates in the State of Mato Grosso._ Last year, Cuiabá, the capital of Mato Grosso, was reaching temperatures up to 44ºC-even more in certain areas, if I'm not wrong. *Language:* Some people think we speak Spanish in Brazil, but we really speak Portuguese, _which the Portuguese themselves kinda call it "Brazilian", since Brazilian Portuguese can be so phonetically different,_ although, at the end of the day, it's mostly mutually intelligible (it's like American and British English). Interestingly, foreigns don't seem to speak Portuguese as we do, they never fully learn the language. Its grammar is complex, and its versatility, as well as its diversity, makes it even harder for a foreign ("gringo", as we call it here) to express himself in Portuguese. So... yeah, it's really unlikely that a foreign could talk like a native. _Don't you ever think that we don't love your language, though, haha! It's the most beautiful one, sorry..._ *State memes:* Yeap, 'Acre doesn't even exist'. That's right, and it's because Acre is really, really far away from anywhere else in the country. This makes the State one of the most difficult to get to-it's like the Tibetan Plateau in its remoteness. Oh, and we also say that there are dinosaurs in Acre. I guess there's no need to explain that... Two other State memes are nobody careing about Espírito Santo, and everyone saying the people of Bahia are lazy-that's xenophobic, please, don't say that without context, and without being around good friends! *Laugh:* We laugh like kkkkkk, and if it's a meme... huehuehuehue. *Currency:* Sometimes we name our currency-Real-after the current president's name, or of a version of it. Dilma Presidency: 5 reais = 5 dilmas. Bolsonaro Presidency: 10 reais = bolsonaros/bonoros. *Argentina:* We love to make fun of Argentina. Pelé > Maradona. *Weekends:* The weekends were made to watch football, play football, and barbecue, and play football after that, but on a videogame. Yeah, we do some other stuff too, but mostly this is it. If it's not a barbecue, then it's going out, and maybe having some delicious açaí. We used to went shopping when the government didn't piss and shit all over the economy. Now that's a happy, distant past... LMAO.
I found the Acre comment really funny, because that’s the only state in Brazil I’ve been in. I was really confused for a second, but having been there, I know it is quite isolated.
It's not "Tongue", it's "Language". "Tongue" is "língua", but the literal organ inside our mouth. In addition, the owner of the channel is Portuguese. He probably knows we speak Portuguese, I don't get your point here. And Acre is not made out of forests only

Such a great video! I really think more people should know about Brazil, it’s a very interesting country, very big and with so many different cultural aspects. Good job!!
1:00 Hi, I'm Brazilian. Although native Brazilians existed before the arrival of Europe, there was no indigenous nation in Brazil. They were just tribes, as the Brazilian territory is very difficult to occupy. Even today, in modern days, the country is very unoccupied due to the difficulty of occupying.
Achei o último mapa curioso, pois embora mostre claramente a maior parte do território como privado, está informando que 47% é público. Não parece que está batendo.
Porque é nacionalizado do estado, você pode ser dono apenas da superfície mas não das terras. O resto publico é dos Indígenas, reservas ambientais, comunidade quilombola e por aí vai
5:35 A minor, excusable correction: Brasilia and Manaus aren't the only exceptions on this map: São Paulo, Osasco, Curitiba, Belo Horizonte and even Porto Alegre (which is shored by a salt laguna, not precisely a beach) are also inland. The thing is, looking for the huge territory, these all seems proportionally NEARBY the shore or in "coastal regions", but it would represent some kilometers in distance - up to 550 km in Belo Horizonte case, for instance. So, the minority of them (Rio, Salvador and Fortaleza) properly have beaches - and I must say, some of the most beautiful and visited ones in the whole country.
Mas está correta a proposição dele. Ele cita "coastal states" e não coastal city. Ele quis dizer que todas estas cidades estão localzadas em estados que possuem mar, não necessariamente que as cidades possuem mar.
@@lages001 Verdade, o erro é menor ainda assim: ele falava de cidades - porém nesse trecho específico citou Estados, muito bem observado! O erro maior foi meu... obrigado pela correção! No entanto, ainda assim, Minas Gerais (onde fica Belo Horizonte) não é um Estado costeiro.
To know how funny is the history. One of the results of the battle of alcazar al kebir between the kingdom Portugal and the kingdom of Morocco in 1578. Was the death of most of the Portuguese courts including the king. Which cause Portugal to loses all of it's colonies to Spain after the establishment if the Iberian union which allows Portuguese settlers to capture more land west of the coasts of Brazil without fearing to broke the rules of tordesillas treaty and that's how Portugal benefits from that defeat against Morocco after the dissolution of the Iberian union in 1640. History it's so funny and full of irony. gritting from Morocco to our neighbors in the north.
awesome! São Paulo is my favorite city in Brazil after my hometown. It's the biggest city in the southern hemisphere, so it has absolutely everything. If you need any tips, let me know!
9:56 the reason for unemployment in the last 2 years was because of the pandemic, and also the quarantine, many companies went bankrupt or left the country because of the lockdown, that's why I'm against the lockdown.
Mas se o lockdown foi ruim por que o mesmo não ocorreu na China, Alemanha, Nova Zelândia e vários estados dos EUA? O problema não foi o lockdown e sim a abordagem econômica de Brasília sobre a pandemia, deixando os estados escolherem como iriam fazer ao invés de tomar a frente e garantir acesso ao crédito

Interesting topic, i dont see many people outside of Brazil talking about our country, this video can help, even a little, to outsiders understand the imense country that is Brazil.
08:18 - This map shows the immigrants from the XXI century, so the real history of immigration could still be shown in some other video, it is a very interesting history.
The interior of the Nation should be the most powerful in every way if it is to be a strong nation with the resilience to fight invasion because the way Brasil is set up now if a nation takes the coast its over. But every aspect of the interior should strive to make it as powerful or more powerful than the coastal regions.
The interior is rarely the strong point of any nation. It makes sense the Southeast is the strongest. The coast is the most important thing to determining where the power of a nation is.
I live in Manaus (in the north part) and the reason of the high contribution for the GPD is because the government has given discounts in taxes and incentives to companies place theirs fabrics in the city. This were a way to move the industry and economic growth to the interior part of Brazil.
Fun fact: the city of São Paulo has a neighborhood in the central region called "Liberdade" (freedom) that is mostly occupied by asian ethnicity, in majority by the Japanese one.
About life expectancy: It's not necessarily about "healthy living" because many people on the coast and in big cities aren't necessarily living healthier (or eating better) than people in the north. People in the north are more prone to tropical diseases due to the proximity to the forest, medical access is often difficult because of the terrain (forest and rivers) and the rains have a great impact on the water level of rivers causing damage to populations living in the river banks (riverside). We also have a huge amount of animals that can kill us, a spider bite and the parents need to take the child to the nearest hospital crossing rivers and forest. Think how difficult it can be. My uncle was bitten by a poisonous snake when he was 12 years old, my grandfather was at the farmhouse with my three uncles, and my grandmother was at her house in town with the other children. An uncle had gone to visit family friends on another farm and taken the car. When this happened in the middle of the night, my uncle screamed and my grandfather ran and turned on the light. He cut the snake's head with a scythe, used a kitchen knife to make a cut where the snake had bitten because he knew you had to bleed so the poison wouldn't get into the bloodstream, and the only vehicle available was a motorcycle that my grandfather didn't know how to drive so my 18 year old uncle had to take his 12 year old brother to the nearest hospital which was about 100 km deep into the nature on an unpaved road. It was January, a time of heavy rain and the motorcycle got stuck in the mud several times, they had to cross improvised bridges because the water from the rivers had carried the bridges. My grandfather tied them both up with a rope, so that when the youngest passed out he wouldn't fall off the bike. They arrived at the hospital soaked, covered in mud, tied together, carrying the snake's head in a plastic bag to show the doctor which species had caused the damage. I wanted to tell this story so that you understand the types of difficulties that are faced in this area. And this did not happen in Amazonas, but in the north of the state of Mato Grosso, where the forest area is much smaller due to deforestation. A friend of my mother, Heloisa, had malaria more than 13 times (she had more times but she stopped counting at 13). The drugs used to fight malaria caused damage to her heart, 2 years ago she had to undergo two surgeries because of it. A man who owned a farm near my hometown found his pregnant wife dead because she had been attacked by a onça. People who went fishing and were swallowed by sucuris, alligator attacks and thats not all. I didn't live most of my life in this area, I lived for 10 years alternating between Mato Grosso and São Paulo. And when I turned 11 we moved permanently to SP my father's hometown and today I'm 32 years old and I'm always on the lookout for any sign of snakes, it's a trauma. The only place I've lived where I didn't worry about snakes was Finland.

The last map shows that the majority of the lands are private property, but we need to say that brazilians laws are quite intervening.
For example, our forest code states that only a percentage of private land can be exploited depending on the biome where it is located, this is called a legal reserve.
In some biomes the legal reserve is 20%, but in the Amazon it is 80%, that is, if a rural producer buys a farm in the Amazon he can only use 20% of the land to plant or raise cattle, the other 80% has to remain preserved.

Se vocês colocarem legendas em português brasileiro, em breve terão milhões de inscritos, pois, o canal é bom, mas pouquíssimos brasileiros compreendem o inglês.
Visualizações do Brasil não rendem muito dinheiro então não interessa muito pra eles
Pouquíssimos o caralho, talvez sim comparado ao tamanho do população mas o número mesmo de Brasileiros que entendem inglês é muito alto, pode ver que a maioria dos comentários do vídeo são de Brasileiros.
Cara creio que a população mais jovem já tem mais familiaridade com o inglês por causa da globalização que está tendo e o inglês sendo a lingua base para se comunicar com o resto do mundo, não vou mentir q escutar pra mim é um pouco mais difícil de ler, porém nada que abaixar um pouco a velocidade do video ou usar legendas em inglês mesmo

I'm a simple person. I read Brazil, I click
I am a Brazilian, and this video is awesome for everyone that wants to get to know Brazil a little bit better. _Give it up for General Knowledge!_
I'd like to make some additions, though. *Here are some fun facts General Knowledge talked about, and more:*
*Climate:* since the video mentioned our climate, I can add that it varies depending on the regions. North, Midwest e Northeast regions are topically very hot. On the other hand, Southeast and South regions are more pleasant. For instance, It can get really hot in Amazonas and really cold in Santa Catarina. As far as I'm concerned, Brazil's climate is not easy, especially in the summer and spring seasons. I've lived in a town that was 40ºC all the time in spring (Quirinópolis, State of Goiás). The city I've been living since 2019 is much more pleasant, but it's still hot-up to 38ºC in spring (Uberlândia, State of Minas Gerais). If you think that is hell, _you certainly don't know the temperature rates in the State of Mato Grosso._ Last year, Cuiabá, the capital of Mato Grosso, was reaching temperatures up to 44ºC-even more in certain areas, if I'm not wrong.
*Language:* Some people think we speak Spanish in Brazil, but we really speak Portuguese, _which the Portuguese themselves kinda call it "Brazilian", since Brazilian Portuguese can be so phonetically different,_ although, at the end of the day, it's mostly mutually intelligible (it's like American and British English). Interestingly, foreigns don't seem to speak Portuguese as we do, they never fully learn the language. Its grammar is complex, and its versatility, as well as its diversity, makes it even harder for a foreign ("gringo", as we call it here) to express himself in Portuguese. So... yeah, it's really unlikely that a foreign could talk like a native. _Don't you ever think that we don't love your language, though, haha! It's the most beautiful one, sorry..._
*State memes:* Yeap, 'Acre doesn't even exist'. That's right, and it's because Acre is really, really far away from anywhere else in the country. This makes the State one of the most difficult to get to-it's like the Tibetan Plateau in its remoteness. Oh, and we also say that there are dinosaurs in Acre. I guess there's no need to explain that... Two other State memes are nobody careing about Espírito Santo, and everyone saying the people of Bahia are lazy-that's xenophobic, please, don't say that without context, and without being around good friends!
*Laugh:* We laugh like kkkkkk, and if it's a meme... huehuehuehue.
*Currency:* Sometimes we name our currency-Real-after the current president's name, or of a version of it. Dilma Presidency: 5 reais = 5 dilmas. Bolsonaro Presidency: 10 reais = bolsonaros/bonoros.
*Argentina:* We love to make fun of Argentina. Pelé > Maradona.
*Weekends:* The weekends were made to watch football, play football, and barbecue, and play football after that, but on a videogame. Yeah, we do some other stuff too, but mostly this is it. If it's not a barbecue, then it's going out, and maybe having some delicious açaí. We used to went shopping when the government didn't piss and shit all over the economy. Now that's a happy, distant past... LMAO.
I found the Acre comment really funny, because that’s the only state in Brazil I’ve been in. I was really confused for a second, but having been there, I know it is quite isolated.
there's another one "Acre has dinosaurs"
It's not "Tongue", it's "Language". "Tongue" is "língua", but the literal organ inside our mouth.
In addition, the owner of the channel is Portuguese. He probably knows we speak Portuguese, I don't get your point here.
And Acre is not made out of forests only
Good to know
Love to brazil, I'd love to visit sometime 🇧🇷❤️🇩🇪

Hi, I'm Brazilian.
Although native Brazilians existed before the arrival of Europe, there was no indigenous nation in Brazil. They were just tribes, as the Brazilian territory is very difficult to occupy. Even today, in modern days, the country is very unoccupied due to the difficulty of occupying.
what you call "just tribes" has the name of nation.

Achei o último mapa curioso, pois embora mostre claramente a maior parte do território como privado, está informando que 47% é público. Não parece que está batendo.
Porque é nacionalizado do estado, você pode ser dono apenas da superfície mas não das terras. O resto publico é dos Indígenas, reservas ambientais, comunidade quilombola e por aí vai
e terras no caso é o Subterrâneo

5:35 A minor, excusable correction: Brasilia and Manaus aren't the only exceptions on this map: São Paulo, Osasco, Curitiba, Belo Horizonte and even Porto Alegre (which is shored by a salt laguna, not precisely a beach) are also inland.
The thing is, looking for the huge territory, these all seems proportionally NEARBY the shore or in "coastal regions", but it would represent some kilometers in distance - up to 550 km in Belo Horizonte case, for instance.
So, the minority of them (Rio, Salvador and Fortaleza) properly have beaches - and I must say, some of the most beautiful and visited ones in the whole country.
Mas está correta a proposição dele. Ele cita "coastal states" e não coastal city.
Ele quis dizer que todas estas cidades estão localzadas em estados que possuem mar, não necessariamente que as cidades possuem mar.
@@lages001 Verdade, o erro é menor ainda assim: ele falava de cidades - porém nesse trecho específico citou Estados, muito bem observado! O erro maior foi meu... obrigado pela correção!
No entanto, ainda assim, Minas Gerais (onde fica Belo Horizonte) não é um Estado costeiro.
To know how funny is the history.
One of the results of the battle of alcazar al kebir between the kingdom Portugal and the kingdom of Morocco in 1578.
Was the death of most of the Portuguese courts including the king.
Which cause Portugal to loses all of it's colonies to Spain after the establishment if the Iberian union which allows Portuguese settlers to capture more land west of the coasts of Brazil without fearing to broke the rules of tordesillas treaty and that's how Portugal benefits from that defeat against Morocco after the dissolution of the Iberian union in 1640.
History it's so funny and full of irony.

explanation is very polite, I'm glad for your information.

9:56 the reason for unemployment in the last 2 years was because of the pandemic, and also the quarantine, many companies went bankrupt or left the country because of the lockdown, that's why I'm against the lockdown.
Mas se o lockdown foi ruim por que o mesmo não ocorreu na China, Alemanha, Nova Zelândia e vários estados dos EUA? O problema não foi o lockdown e sim a abordagem econômica de Brasília sobre a pandemia, deixando os estados escolherem como iriam fazer ao invés de tomar a frente e garantir acesso ao crédito

The interior of the Nation should be the most powerful in every way if it is to be a strong nation with the resilience to fight invasion because the way Brasil is set up now if a nation takes the coast its over. But every aspect of the interior should strive to make it as powerful or more powerful than the coastal regions.
Thats almost never the case
The interior is rarely the strong point of any nation. It makes sense the Southeast is the strongest. The coast is the most important thing to determining where the power of a nation is.
I live in Manaus (in the north part) and the reason of the high contribution for the GPD is because the government has given discounts in taxes and incentives to companies place theirs fabrics in the city. This were a way to move the industry and economic growth to the interior part of Brazil.

About life expectancy: It's not necessarily about "healthy living" because many people on the coast and in big cities aren't necessarily living healthier (or eating better) than people in the north.
People in the north are more prone to tropical diseases due to the proximity to the forest, medical access is often difficult because of the terrain (forest and rivers) and the rains have a great impact on the water level of rivers causing damage to populations living in the river banks (riverside).
We also have a huge amount of animals that can kill us, a spider bite and the parents need to take the child to the nearest hospital crossing rivers and forest. Think how difficult it can be.
My uncle was bitten by a poisonous snake when he was 12 years old, my grandfather was at the farmhouse with my three uncles, and my grandmother was at her house in town with the other children.
An uncle had gone to visit family friends on another farm and taken the car. When this happened in the middle of the night, my uncle screamed and my grandfather ran and turned on the light. He cut the snake's head with a scythe, used a kitchen knife to make a cut where the snake had bitten because he knew you had to bleed so the poison wouldn't get into the bloodstream, and the only vehicle available was a motorcycle that my grandfather didn't know how to drive so my 18 year old uncle had to take his 12 year old brother to the nearest hospital which was about 100 km deep into the nature on an unpaved road.
It was January, a time of heavy rain and the motorcycle got stuck in the mud several times, they had to cross improvised bridges because the water from the rivers had carried the bridges. My grandfather tied them both up with a rope, so that when the youngest passed out he wouldn't fall off the bike. They arrived at the hospital soaked, covered in mud, tied together, carrying the snake's head in a plastic bag to show the doctor which species had caused the damage.
I wanted to tell this story so that you understand the types of difficulties that are faced in this area. And this did not happen in Amazonas, but in the north of the state of Mato Grosso, where the forest area is much smaller due to deforestation.
A friend of my mother, Heloisa, had malaria more than 13 times (she had more times but she stopped counting at 13). The drugs used to fight malaria caused damage to her heart, 2 years ago she had to undergo two surgeries because of it.
A man who owned a farm near my hometown found his pregnant wife dead because she had been attacked by a onça. People who went fishing and were swallowed by sucuris, alligator attacks and thats not all.
I didn't live most of my life in this area, I lived for 10 years alternating between Mato Grosso and São Paulo. And when I turned 11 we moved permanently to SP my father's hometown and today I'm 32 years old and I'm always on the lookout for any sign of snakes, it's a trauma. The only place I've lived where I didn't worry about snakes was Finland.
Note to self. Never visit Mato Grosso or any other tropical jungle area.
