Em 9 de março de 1500, partiu de Lisboa para Índia uma frota composta por 13 navios e aproximadamente 1500 homens, com o objetivo de estabelecer contatos diplomáticos, realizar acordos comerciais e trazer um grande carregamento de especiarias. Estima-se que esta armada levasse mantimentos para dezoito meses e a empreitada foi liderada pelo experimente navegador Pedro Álvares Cabral, contando com a presença do cosmógrafo Duarte Pacheco Pereira, entre outros experientes comandantes e navegadores.
Após aproximadamente 3600 quilômetros percorridos, no dia 22 de abril de 1500 os tripulantes tiveram um primeiro contato visual com um elevado que ganhou o nome de Monte Pascoal (pois se encontravam no oitavo dia da páscoa cristã). Nos relatos de Pero Vaz de Caminha, integrante da viagem e responsável por seu registro, não existe nenhuma menção sobre um possível encantamento ou surpresa com a “novidade” da descoberta.
Os navios portugueses primeiramente aportaram na região onde hoje se localiza o município baiano de Santa Cruz Cabrália e enviaram um grupo comandado pelo capitão Nicolau Coelho para entrar em contato com os nativos. Depois os portugueses decidiram aportar em uma região mais segura e navegaram para a atual região de Porto Seguro. Neste local organizaram na atual Praia da Coroa Vermelha uma missa em 26 de abril de 1500 (domingo de Páscoa) dirigida pelo Frei Henrique de Coimbra, oficializando a descoberta das novas terras.
Há um crescente número de historiadores que preferem o termo "chegada ao Brasil" ao invés de "descobrimento do Brasil" por considerar que o termo "descobrimento" é válido somente numa perspectiva ocidental e europeia. Há estimativas que habitavam no atual território brasileiro de 2 a 5 milhões de pessoas em 1500, quando Pedro Álvares Cabral e sua expedição oficializaram na Europa a "descoberta" desta terra. A população de Portugal nesta época era de pouco mais de um milhão de habitantes.
O Brasil teve diferentes nomes logo após seu descobrimento:
• Pindorama (até 1500) em tupi-guarani significa "Terra das Palmeiras" e era essa a forma como era chamada a terra pelos nativos na região de desembarque dos portugueses.
• Ilha de Vera Cruz (1500 a 1501) acreditando que a terra descoberta era uma grande ilha.
• Terra de Santa Cruz (1501 a 1503) quando foi constatado que a terra descoberta era um continente.
• Brasil (a partir de 1503) em função da grande quantidade de árvores de pau-brasil existentes na região do litoral.

Hi guys, I’m your travel Agent Shezar and today I will be persuading you to take a trip to Brazil, offered to you by MYTRIP Corporation
This is an Overview of some of the topics I will be discussing with you. Some of them are...
And Much More!
A few general facts about Brazil are…
The Picture in the Background is the Parliament Building, located in Brasilia
Brazil is located in South America and neighbor's countries; for an example, Argentina, Peru, and Venezuela.
To the bottom right is the flag of Brazil
We arrive on February 10th at Rio De Janeiro International Airport, stay in Brazil for approximately 1 week, and come back to Toronto Pearson International Airport on the 18th
We’ll be visiting three cities…
Rio De Janeiro, Brasilia, and Iguazu Falls
Below are a list of what we will be doing in each city.
For an Example we will be going to Copacabana Beach in Rio De Janeiro
This is a detailed version of what, when, and where we will be going in Brazil.
We arrive on February 10th at Rio De Janeiro Airport, Stay in Rio for 3 days, head to Brasilia stay there for two days, go to Iguazu falls be there for also 2 days, and finally be back in Rio for one more day and leave on the 18th
In Rio we will be staying in Miramar Hotel, In Brasilia we will stay in Brasilia Palace Hotel, and in Iguazu falls we will be staying in Sheraton Iguazu Resort
Rio De Janeiro, Brasilia and Iguazu Falls all have similar climate. The weather is about the same throughout the year. Averaging to about 25 – 35 °c.
For Transportation Options, we have to take a plane to Brazil and back, the rental bus is also necessary when traveling from city to city. The Rental Car is recommended when your exploring the city on your own time and you deserve to drive in style. At Only $10000 per day. Taxi’s aren’t recommended because it involves a security risk.
The official language of Brazil is Portuguese. Other Languages include English, German, Italian and other Indigenous Languages. About 99% of the Brazilian population speaks Portuguese so its good to know a few key phrases but you wont have to worry about the hotels. All the staff at the hotels can speak English fluently and has been made sure of.
Two Major factors of life for Brazilians are the Brazil Carnival and FIFA. To start off the brazil Carnival is an annual celebration. This year the dates are from February 13th to the 18th . The Brazil Carnival consists of fun, costumes, dancing, drama, and more. For FIFA…
I have 2 minute video showing Brazil’s World cup history
It is very important to bring Brazilian currency otherwise you won't be able to shop or buy souvenirs. Depending one where you are you may find either a or b voltage. So it’s a good idea to have a universal converter to handle any situation. You should have enough clothing for a week and bring beach wear. Also stuff like toiletries and must bring passport. Anything else is up to you.
When traveling to Brazil you must have your routine vaccination, Hepatitis A, and Typhoid shots. Although I’d recommend taking them all since we’ll be close to wildlife during our time in Iguazu falls.
Brazil has many attractions. In the Background Pic you can see Iguazu falls, it is 82m tall. The statue is named Christ the redeemer and it is 38m high and 30 meters wide. It was built on 1931. The Niteroi Museum consists of modern architecture and beautiful art. And Copacabana beach which is located in Rio De Janeiro and one of the top beaches in the country.
So our total budget for 1 person is… $5,500 not including the Lamborghini rental and anything else not in this package. Make sure to keep in mind that 1 Canadian dollar is equal to 2.20 Brazilian real
So in conclusion this trip only one week, lots of attractions, beautiful climate, many historical buildings, wildlife, budget wise cost and the time zone is 3 hrs. ahead of Kitchener, so sleeping will not be a significant problem.
