Brazil (PortugueseBrasil; Brazilian Portuguese: [bɾaˈziw]), officially the Federative Republic of Brazil is the largest country in both South America and Latin America. At 8.5 million square kilometers (3,300,000 sq mi) and with over 214 million people, Brazil is the world's fifth-largest country by area and the sixth most populous. Its capital is Brasília, and its most populous city is São Paulo. The federation is composed of the union of the 26 states and the Federal District.

A Journey Through Time

The story of Brazil begins over 8,000 years ago with its indigenous tribes. The Portuguese arrival in 1500 brought new languages, customs, and religions, weaving a complex tapestry that culminated in Brazil's independence in 1822. Today, Brazil celebrates a rich historical legacy alongside rapid modernization.

<p>🇬🇧 Along the shoreline, two men walk together. One wears heavy boots and carries a long machete, its blade piercing a coconut.<br />
The pairing of tool and fruit feels both pragmatic and symbolic — a fragment of labor, survival and companionship etched against the horizon.<br />

🇫🇷 Le long du rivage, deux hommes avancent côte à côte. L’un porte des bottes de travail et tient une longue machette dont la lame transperce une noix de coco.<br />
L’association de l’outil et du fruit apparaît à la fois pragmatique et symbolique — un fragment de labeur, de survie et de camaraderie inscrit face à l’horizon.</p>

<p>Rio Grande, RS, Brazil.<br />
<br />
A quiet moment with this couple, swimming calmly side by side. The female took the lead in the frame, with the male just a bit hidden behind her.<br />
<br />
They seemed totally relaxed in this still water, not really caring about our presence.<br />
