Brazil ,officially the Federative Republic of Brazil (Portuguese:Brasil or República Federativa do Brasil,listen (help·info)),is a country in South America.[1] It is the fifth-largest country by geographical area,the fifth most populous country,and the fourth most populous democracy in the world.Bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the east,Brazil has a coastline of over 7,367 kilometres.[1]
It borders Venezuela,Suriname,Guyana and the department of French Guiana to the north,Uruguay to the south,Argentina and Paraguay to the southwest,Bolivia and Peru to the west,and Colombia to the northwest.[1] Numerous archipelagos are part of the Brazilian territory,such as Penedos de São Pedro e São Paulo,Fernando de Noronha,Trindade and Martim Vaz and Atol das Rocas.[1][2]
Brazil is cut through by the Equator and Tropic of Capricorn and is home to varied fauna and flora,as well as extensive natural resources.The Brazilian population tends to concentrate along the coastline in large urban centers.While Brazil has one of the largest populations in the world,population density is low and the inner continental land has large areas of low population.[3] The official language is Portuguese [4] (Third most spoken western language,after English and Spanish).Catholicism is the predominant religion.
Brazil was colonized by Portugal from 1500 until its independence in 1822.The country has been a republic since 1889,although the bicameral legislature (now called Congress) dates back to 1824,when the first constitution was ratified.Its current Constitution defines Brazil as a Federative Republic.[4] The Federation is formed by the indissoluble association of the States,the Federal District,and the Municipalities.[4] There are currently 26 States and 5,564 Municipalities.[5]
Brazil is the world's 9th largest economy in terms of purchasing power and the 10th largest economy at market exchange rates.The country has a diversified middle-income economy with wide variations in development levels and mature manufacturing,mining and agriculture sectors.Technology and services also play an important role and are growing rapidly.Brazil is a net exporter,having gone through free trade and privatization reforms in the 1990s.In spite of important economical achievements,many social issues still hamper development.
