Brazil

República Federativa do Brasil (English: Federal Republic of Brazil), often said simply as Brazil as in the name used on Cyber Nations, is a nation with a unique culture incorporating it's founding on immigration. She is a democracy, led by the President, which is elected by popular election every four years. The nation is legislated by the Continental Congress which is split into two chambers, the Senate and a House of Representatives.

The capital city of the Republic is in Brasilia, although each subdivision has their own capital as well. Brasilia is city which is unique in its own right with exciting architecture and a rapid population growth. This City is no more than 50 years old.

Brazil has historically had a reputation as a nation that has a great deal of acceptance and this has led to her high growth rate in population from Portuguese, Italian and German populations.

Geography
Brazil is characterized by the extensive low-lying Amazon Rainforest in the north and a more open terrain of hills and low mountains to the south — home to most of Brazil's population and its agricultural base. Along the Atlantic seacoast are also found several mountain ranges, reaching roughly 2,900 m high. The highest peak is the Pico da Neblina at 2,994 m, in Guiana's highlands. Major rivers include the Amazon, the largest river in the world by volume, and often considered the world's longest; the Paraná and its major tributary, the Iguaçu River, where the impressive Iguaçu falls are located; the Rio Negro, São Francisco, Xingu, Madeira and the Tapajós rivers. Situated on the equator, Brazil's climate is predominantly tropical, with little seasonal variation. Although the subtropical south is more temperate, it occasionally experiences frost and snow. Precipitation is abundant in the humid Amazon Basin, but more arid landscapes are found as well, particularly in the northeast

Browncoats
Napoleonic Armies all were dressed in a well mannered, and clean cut way. They proudly displayed bright colors that allowed nations to determine one army from another. In the days of the prior to the Revolution, it was popular to just refer to the armies as Blue or Redcoats depending on which nation (French or British) was in control of an area. However once the revolution began, this same term could not be applied to Brazilians who had no uniforms. The term "Browncoats" became popular with Brazilian Generals when refering to their own troops due to the fact they often wore brown or dirty clothes. This quickly found it's way to the people and strangely enough was embraced. To this day the military in general, organization and individuals, are often refered to as the Browncoats. Today a uniform dress browncoat uniform is issued to all branches of the military. It is a basic trenchcoat, with a red scarf. Khaki pants, and brown shirts are also provided. Women uniforms are different, as they are issued a smaller jacket that is much tighter and cannot be closed. Female recruits recieve black pants rather than khaki.
