Brazil's role in BRICS


Brazil is one of the five largest countries in the world. Engages with all BRICS partners in various areas including advanced technology, trade, energy, agriculture, tourism and culture. The country is cooperating with China, among other things, on the construction of a railway to connect the two coasts: the Pacific and the Atlantic, an international project designed to open up access to new markets. In addition, the Brazilian authorities have established an investment co-operation fund with their counterparts in China. Its purpose is to support infrastructure projects. According to experts, this state is capable of significantly increasing the role of BRICS in Latin America.

Industry of Brazil


Main industries: energy, chemical, automotive, and light industry. The country is developing nuclear power, aircraft construction, space programmes, and hydrocarbon deposits on the deep-water continental shelf.

Brazilian culture


The rock paintings in the Serra da Capivara National Park are considered Brazil's oldest art. Their age, according to experts' estimates, is about 15,000 years old. In the states of Minas Gerais and Goiás, later specimens have been found, in the form of geometric patterns and animal figures. One of the most complex types of pre-Columbian artifacts in Brazil is the exquisite Marajoaran pottery.

Painting, sculpture and architecture in Brazil, according to art historians, have since ancient times combined Renaissance motifs (mainly the Portuguese version). In the XVI-XVII centuries, fortresses and towns were built. The facades of churches were covered with rich decorations. In their interiors, gilded wooden carvings and mouldings were combined with paintings and retabulu altars.

Brazilian Carnival is the most famous celebration of this country, which has become an international event. Tourists from all over the world come to see the colourful procession and national dances, which last for a whole week.

Brazil in international organisations


The Federative Republic of Brazil is a member of the United Nations (UN), the Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR), the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the Group of Twenty (G20), and the Commonwealth of Portuguese-speaking Countries (CPLP).
