Brazil, as we all know - a great big nation in the South American Continent that expanded from the Amazon Basin in the north to vineyards and massive Iguaçu Falls in the south.
However, the proud nation did start from the 15 donatry captaincy colonies, originally established on the Northeast Atlantic coast near the 46th Meridian West also known as Tordesillas Line of 1494. This did put the boundary between neighboring colonies of the Spanish Crown.
On the month of April, 1500 - as recorded, Pedro Álvares Cabral claimed the land for Portugal. Brazilians don't celebrate their discovery like it was a very big day for all of them - like it was the day that their story really began. NO! For the reason that their history reaches way past thousands of years before the Portuguese fleet came.
The rich history of this land started with the indigenous people of Brazil. The region where the Portuguese explorers anchored was already inhabited by hundres of different tribes of the Jiquabu, their earliest traces can be tracked in the highlands of Minas Gerais, 10,000 years back.

On the other hand, Brazilians love celebrating their independence greatly! The day of their Independence from the United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and the Algarves on 7 September 1822 is commonly known as Sete de Setembro or 7th of September. This day is a National Holiday, celebrated every year!
