What do you know about Brazil?

Question

What do you know about Brazilian culture? Have you ever listened to any Brazilian music? Do you know anything about Brazilian traditions besides the best soccer?!? ha ha Stereotypes are everywhere and, unfortunately, there are many negative stereotypes of Brazil and Brazilian people. The majority of them are not true, and I believe we should avoid them. As a Brazilian woman, I'd love to know what you think about the country where I live.

First country to have government subsidies on corn-ethanol as fuel for cars.

Lots of immigrants from Germany, and French is widely spoken (more then Spanish even)

Was 8th largest economy in the World at one point.

Had the largest national debt of any country at one point.

Only country in South America to gain Independence without a bloody revolution. (sou da terrinha)

Very diverse country, but there is also a big socio-economic gap between the rich and the poor (highest in the world I believe)
