Brazilian
A Country of Passion
Brazil is a land of passion ranking fifth among the world's most populated countries, and has over half of Latin American--the largest country in Latin American. According to the record, Brazil has 20% of the entire world's biodiversity, and its political and administrative organization comprises three main Branches of Power: the Judiciary, the Executive and the Legislative, and the principle of autonomy among the Union, the Federal District, 26 states and 5,563 towns and cities (Brasil.gov.br). |

Diversified Economy
Based on the record from Brazil government, Brazil influences three fifths of the South American economy's industrial productions and integrates various economic groups, such as Mercosur, G-22 and the Cairns Group. Moreover, Brazil's scientific and technological development are tight with diversified industrial sectors in order to attract foreign enterprises (Brasil.gov.br).
On Brazil. gov, it also displays that Brazil trades regularly with over one hundred nations---74% of exports represented by manufactured or semi manufactured goods. Its main partners are: the EEC (26%), the US (24%), Mercosur and Latin America (21%) and Asia (12%). This website mentions that one of the most dynamic sectors in this trade scenery is the so-called "agrobusiness" sector, which for twenty years has reserved Brazil among the most highly productive countries (Brasil.gov.br).
In my conception, the most interesting thing about Brazil in the mix culture which lead to a unique population, who can exhibit happiness even though the country has many social problems.
My Cultural Experiences
The only think I can complain about South Bend is the freezing weather. Besides it, I am enjoying IUSB, which has received me with great affection.
