It's weird that there are so many brasilians here...
It`s like my geography teacher used to say:
"If you go to a deserted island in the middle of the ocean, even though it's deserted, there will be at least one Brazillian there."
It's one of the laws of the internet. If it is about "Brazil" it will have several brazillians in the comments talking about it.
Everytime there's "Brazil" in the name of anything, the Great Horde of Hue is summoned.

He did pronounce Brazil very well.
Tbf the "ão" pronunciation is a lot hard for non natives.
@@davipenha yeap, it's like the ç, specially since maaaany keyboards and even fonts don't even have the accents available, so many write the words with ç ~ and sometimes ^ without them.
but to be honest, let me just give my two cents on it, 'cus this just makes my blood boil xD as a brazilian myself -born, and raised here all my life-
i ,for SURE, don't think most brazilians should be picky or mock Anyone trying to speak another language and pronouncing things wrong, i mean...... most brazilians can't even speak portuguese correctly nor without an accent, and even more of them can't pronounce english -and other foreign- words the correct way -and by 'correct' i mean the Native way, the way they Expect foreigners to pronounce portuguese words, like they are native speakers- and just assume it's said like that because it's engraved in the society, the CLASSIC example being the famous movie ""Titanic"" .... people here including on tv, promos, and absolutely anyone talking about it say ''tchíh- tã- nih-ck" emphasizing every syllable specially the last portion, not "ty- tuh- nick'' emphasizing the middle, or even the tv series Xena the warrior princess? or the game Xenogear? yeap.... both greek based, and people around here --EVEN in big producers/marketing and tv! seriously!- just Roll with the X in the word as it's used in portuguese grammar despite the fact that being greek it sounds like a Z....
and TRY to speak the correct/native pronounce in a conversation? oh... my....god.... be ready for some Brutal mockery and people saying you sound soooo pretentious or EVEN start arguing that it's just wrong the way YOU are saying it because they've been saying and listening to it being said like that -the 'wrong' way- since they are kids so it IS the correct way.......we even have the word ''abrasileirado'' which is the equivalent to ''americanized'' some use for words that have shifted from it's original one to a more ''portuguese sounding'' way of saying, because people do this -change the way they sound to sound similar to portuguese grammar rules- to so freaking many foreign words and just assume That's the correct pronunciation EVEN when trying to speak the original word in another language, i've heard many specially in school FROM AN ENGLISH TEACHER i mean.... the ONE person you Expect to have an absolutely almost 'native sounding', perfect and NOT broken english since they're Teaching the language itself so they must've studied it........
so....basically.... no one here can actually criticize too much the way foreign speakers pronounce things ''Wrong'' or with an accent or plainly the way ''they think it's pronounced based on the their own language grammar rules'' while trying to speak portuguese or any other language.....
sorry for this huge tangent i just had to get it off my chest AHHAHAHA and i think i drank too much coffee '-' i apologize hahahahahaha

Title: Mentions "Brazil"
Brazilians: *HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM*
7:25 Dom Pedro I did not lose the war to Argentina, Cisplatina (Uruguay) comprised a very large territory and the Empire of Brazil was left with a large part of it, a large part of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, a small part of the States of Santa Catarina and Paraná, which used to be Cisplantina (Uruguay), became Brazilian territory.
And the other part, in the extreme south of Cisplatina was already predominantly populated by Spanish speakers, became an independent country that we call Uruguay, but under the influence of the Empire of Brazil.
For strategy and in order to avoid human, military and financial losses, Dom Pedro gave the territory of Cisplatina to the people of Uruguay and not Argentina, so Argentina did not win any war. The Brazilian Empire's navy (the most powerful in Latin America) could have devastated Buenos Aires, but it was decided that they would not attack so as not to prolong the war and have more losses on both sides.
Argentina handed our ass in that war. Look for the Battle of Ituzaingó. It is a brazilian dumpster fire.

Well, of course the independence went smoothly. It was all articulated as a way to keep the royal family in charge, even if it was at the cost of Portugal losing the colony. D. João himself sent D. Pedro a letter telling him it would be better to do it soon rather than later because things were getting s p i c y back in the Metropole. When things go too right in History, you can bet there's political interest behind it, Blue.
about the R, in portuguese, you have the sound of "h" in english when you use R in the beginning of a word. To get the same sound in the middle of a word, you would have to make it "RR"
Mine is "RRR".

Small correction: the day when D. Pedro I said he'd stay was before the independence happened, though he was probably thinking about it when he decided to stay. He had mostly grown up in Brazil because he was pretty young when the royal family moved to Rio and was fairly popular here. If i remember my History classes correctly, the situation of who'd get the Portuguese throne was a little bit less clear or less immediate, he would've had to wait longer until his father died, and iirc there were other family members there that might be a little bit of trouble, so declaring independence was a guaranteed way to get to some throne as soon as possible. Some people here were worried that he'd just end up claiming the Portuguese crown too after his father died, turning Brazil back into a colony, but that didn't happen. The independence wasn't entirely as heroic as the paintings make it seem, which is kinda common. Brazil had to pay Portugal a lot of money as compensation, I imagine nobody loved the thought of fighting a lot over it.
Some additions, if anyone wants to learn more:
About the time the Dutch took over: Before trying to take over, the Dutch were also very involved in all the sugar trading going on at the time through the Dutch West India Company. They would refine it and actually sell it to many different parts of Europe. If i remember correctly, they were also involved in the transatlantic slave trade, I think they had a lot of ships. So they already had a lot of power and money here, which made it easier for them to take over eventually. And when they took over, they didn't technically govern all the areas that "belonged" to the Portuguese, it was mainly in Northeastern Brazil, which was the area with the most development here at that time, but they didn't get Rio, for example.
And the guy who became governor seemed to be very interested in science and the arts, which he encouraged way more than the Portuguese did. Maybe not among regular poor people, but he got painters and naturalists to come over on expeditions and stuff like that.
About the Portuguese royal family coming to Rio: Queen Maria didn't really do any governing while the royal family was in Brazil because she was said to not be sane anymore. At some point she ran out of the palace naked. Well, I'm not sure if she was fully naked, it's also possible that she was wearing some clothes that weren't seen as enough at the time, since everyone wore so many layers. People had to call some nuns from a convent that's kind of nearby and wait for them to get there because nobody else was allowed to just go and touch the queen like that to get her back inside.
About the (very late) end of slavery: England was pretty significant in the process of slavery ending. At some point they went "ok we just realized that slavery is actually bad, so if you wanna be on good terms with us you have to stop it". But unfortunately that wasn't a very popular idea among that many people here, including lots of powerful people. There were certain laws passed to diminish it, at one point it became illegal to enslave more people in Africa to bring them over, if i remember correctly the English threatened to sink ships doing that. It didn't fully end, but it greatly diminished. But the enslaved people here weren't freed, and they still had kids who were not born free. Some time later, there were also laws that tried to free some more people, one that freed anyone who turned 60 and one that freed anyone born from that point on, but in practice they didn't work that well. Most important people here didn't want slavery to end, so it took a while for the band-aid to actually get ripped off, and when it was abolished it was also not that great economically either. There were many people who were against it for moral issues, but that wasn't the only reason why it ended. There's an expression we use here, "para inglês ver", meaning "for [the] English to see", it means you're trying to make something look better to others without actually making changes to improve it. Some people who had "owned" slaves who then got freed got paid compensation, and there was no real attempt that i know of to help the people who were suddenly free but had no money and still faced a lot of prejudice.
Also, I remember being told that after D. Pedro II got exiled he took a vial of earth from Brazil that he kept under his pillow or something like that.
small?

The Golden Law is one of the most awesome laws ever passed. It’s absolutely succinct beyond the ability to misinterpret. It’s basically:
Clause 1: Slavery is over.
Clause 2: Anyone who says differently is wrong.

Hey Blue, you overlooked something pretty important. You keep talking about the gold, but all of Brazil´s gold ended up in English banks, paying for debt accrued by the Portuguese. Same with our emeralds and our diamonds.
1:15 actually its believed that portugal already knew about Brazil and decided to keep it a secret. When they had to claim The terrain as theirs they went there,wanting no one to claim it first.
Its also why they didn't agree with the first line they drew for portugal, as they realised it wouldn't include Brazil. After an argument,Spain agree to move it a little to the left,not knowing that Portugal wanted this so they could claim the land that now is Brazil.

Here's an explanation about the Portuguese "R":
We have 3 different ways of saying R - I'll call them the "Trill" one, the "Throat" one and the "American" one.
Trill - this is the one you see in Spanish, and it is also the "original" R, used by Portugal and still very alive in some places in Brazil (South and Itailan diaspora in São Paulo). It can be used in any position of a word, so if you only use this type, you will never be wrong.
Throat - this one is like the French R, or like the letter H in words like "harsh", "horse", etc. A lot of Brazilians use it (Rio, Minas Gerais, all of North and Northeastern regions), and it's probably the most prominent one, currently. It is a "strong R", and that's the one you used to say "Rio de Janeiro". But notice that "eiRo" in Janeiro? That's a "weak R", because it's between 2 vowels. Weak R is ALWAYS pronounced as a Trill, no matter your accent. Therefore, people who use the Throat R also use the Trill when the R shows up between vowels.
American - that's the Rhotic R, the one you hear in Road, River, etc. It's by far the least standard one, but it is also used by a lot of people (São Paulo and Minas' countrysides, plus Center-West states). It is generally regarded as the "hillbilly R", very rural/suburban. It is, despite its "low intelligence" stereotype, the hardest one to use: It is a "strong R", but it doesn't happen at the beginning of words, neither on double R words (i.e. Carro [car]). That means only a final R or a R before another consonant can have the American pronunciation: Carta. Favor, Amar, Porta.
So what happens is people who use this kind of R have to use the Trill on a "weak R" (like everyone else) and then either Trill or Throat for the "strong R". Meaning people speaking an accent with the American R can use up to 3 different kinds of R.
It's all very logical once you learn it (there are no irregularities/exceptions), but from the outside it just looks like a mess.
Bonus: H is silent in Portuguese. So hipopótamo or helicóptero are read "ipopótamo" and "elicóptero". One fewer sound to worry about. :)
@@leolucas1980 Oh yeah, I just lump the tap and the trill together for the sake of simplicity, since they seem to be prodduced the same way, just one being sustained for longer. But you're right, some people will hold the trill in word, some will just tap, some will do a mix. Lots of people I know who can do the tap can't do the trill, so there's also that.
Actually it depends on the province in portugal they use the trill one or the throat one, so it didn't start in Brazil
This trill one, you have in "little". The phoneme before the /e/ in "little" is our trill R
It's so weird to see people from another country talking about grammar.
@@lgro00 Talking about their portuguese grammar with fellow brazilians in *english*
As a historian, I should point out to those interessted in Brazil's history there are numerous mistakes made there, and there's more research going on about it. Anyway, here are a couple fun facts that could change your final interpretation of Brazil's history.
- the "line" portugal and spain drew over the atlactic sea did not "just happened" to be over a tiny border of Brazil, but Portugal made a complaint about the first line drawn and asked that the distance (from portugal) would be just a tiny bit bigger, and 6 years later (very little time for people that still used horses as cars) they said they owned it.
- the "I Will Stay" speech is not so much a rebelion against the empire but more like: daddy João VI wrote Pedro I to "declare" independence and it would all be good as long as they were the same empire. So much so, that as soon as Pedro's son become of age, Pedro I went to be king in Portugal. This makes no sense in aristocracy old functionality, you could only become king if daddy died. The deal to """"become independent"""" is more likely Portugal would be watching Latin America take Spain down and become republics of it own people and having Pedro I declare independence would be a great way of staying in power without having to deal with rebellions and people having rights like being able to decide on its government.
- about Pedro II being a great leader, centered, educataded etc, well, many studies show us today that he was a party boy, was frequently drunk, didnt made very much time for politics and the real leader was his wife, Leopoldina. (whos an interesting woman, should get a video for herself)
Brazil's history is fuckin nuts, love it. There is a lot to uncover there. Very tricky as well
You missed an extremely important moment of Brazilian history: Getúlio Vargas’ government!
True, he didn't even got a citation. The labor rights, the national infrastructure and industrialization, populism and media control, the coup and dictatorship, 15 years in power and his assassination. Should have gotten at least a citation. I think this video needed another 10 min after Pedro II.

3:20 Basically, the R it's pronunciated the same as the “R” you guys know, but when the R it's the first letter of the word than the R sounds like the H of the word hate or hill.
kinda, is more of when the word have two "R" will pronounce like a H, and when is just one "R" is a tap like the american T when saying words like wa*t*er
@@quatosoi5707 it depends, the pronounce may vary depending on your accent or the word. "Rio" is pronounced like the english H
R=R
RR=H
R first letter of the word=H
No, you're wrong, depending on the region, the R is pronounced everything as H...

You’re great man. I’m a big history buff so I never saw history as boring to me and always had fun reading new and interesting things, but you, my good sir....just made history fantastic. I always have a good laugh while watching your videos man. Even when I’m watching something I already know a lot about, like Ancient Rome. Keep up the great work man. Love it

Mas é verdade mesmo, o Brasil tem uma população enorme e com acesso a internet relativamente grande, e como recebemos influência dos EUA (ou seja, embora a maioria da população não fale inglês, estamos mais propensos a ver um vídeo americano do que um chinês, indiano, japonês ou árabe, pois temos mais contato com a cultura dos EUA do que com esses países), é comum achar alguns brasileiros vagando por vídeos americanos.

English speakers can't say "João" to save their lives 😂
@victoria Himes No, if you say Jo the J will sound like "dio" in portuguese, there's no way to write the portuguese j in phonetic english. Also El is kinda off as the sillable and not nasal enough. I know americans that are fluent in portuguese (Gavin Roy from the channel Small Advantages) and they know it's supposed to be nasal but they overdo it always and it sounds funny. I don't know why but saying "João" correctly is something native english speakers just cannot do unfortunately x)

Thanks for the video! I left Brazil in 7th grade so I didn't learn a lot of this stuff, but turns out my ancestors were some of those gold rush immigrants from Portugal and coffee farmers later on, all in Minas Gerais, through the Rio port.
First of all, great video man. I apreciate you spreading history to all people. And a really like it your video and the way that you told your history.
It's not perfect, but, surprisingly, is kinda accurate. The perfect way to describe this video is like saying that you told the history of Cinderella, but in the disney version instead of the original by the Grimm Brothers.
There is some things that are different, but, for the people that want to have the first contact with your history, it's amazing.
Again, I think that there are some things wrong, but this is still a amazing video and I think you did a amazing job. And, as a Brazilian, I appreciate you telling our history

Me: "Waits to here a name I recognize from Civ."
Also me: 'hears that name,' "right, that's the good guy."
Brazil has only one unanimous "good guy", and it's D Pedro II. Worst case scenario, some may say he kept a blind eye for slavery to use slavery abolishment a political move for his duaghter.
For example, you see many people here talking good about Getúlio Vargas, where I and some other liberals consider him the worst of our problems, since his legacy echoes to this day and the urge for authoritarianism here is pretty high. Such thing happens in Argentina, too, with Juan Perón.

Seeing my absolute favourite YT channel talking about my country brings me joy.
Wow. This is the first time I see a foreigner understanding the nuance that some BRAZILIANS don't.
Yeah the royal family wasn't for slavery, specially the second kingdom. And the so called reforms brought by the Republic ended up putting the recently freed slaves in a bind. Today, we're ruled by those same supporters of slavery from the old monarchy days. All one has to do is google this politician or that politician's ancestry and see the real issue.
Good job!
One thing you'll notice throughout most empires in history is that squabbling and power grabs are almost always broken down to be between the centralized rulers, I.E. the monarchs/ruler, and the aristocratic nobility, I.E. the private, wealthy landowning citizens that make up a minority of the population.
Generally speaking, the latter are only ever happy when the monarch/centralized leader in question are under their collective thumb and being puppeteered by them.
Good, respectable examples are similar to that of Elon Musk in our society; they use their resources to both live in luxury and better their own land, and by extension their country/society.
Meanwhile, the centralized leaders, in most cases, are only ever happy when their power is unimpeded. Good, respectable examples will use this uninhibited power wisely, in the interests of their people, and protect them from vicious persecutors, be they foreign or domestic.
Poor Pedro II tried. But to no avail...
TheBrickMasterB The monarchy did try to work with the Parliament to pass through reforms, especially to the abolition of slavery even in the first decade of the Empires existence. But the aristocrats and business owners had no appetite for reform
ZetoBlackproject are you brazillian or I have to write it in English?
After princess isabel signed the “Lei Áurea” the slavery technically continued because the law did not give black people money or anything,so they had to keep working(there were other laws,some said that land owners who had slaves had to free them after certain of service or you could pay a tax and keep the slave,BUT still there were no help for the recently freed slaves);I would like to understand that statement of yours about the royal family being against slavery...I do not understand
(And that was intentional,he wanted to keep the working labor there)
@@gretret8412 Acredito que quando diz a família real sendo contra a escravidão é justamente aquilo que os dois comentários anteriores discutiram: apesar de uma Monarquia, o império tinha os 3 poderes, quase uma República, portanto eles tentaram passar a abolição algumas vezes pelo parlamento, porém a aristocracia na época nunca aprovou a reforma. Portanto a família real era contra a escravidão (tanto que a princesa Isabel é que cria a Lei Áurea, que infelizmente foi "o início do fim").
Eduardo Vaz de Mello rpz,n sei se isso faz sentido por causa das ações q vem depois da abolição da escravidão,mas tudo bem

You should talk about the War of Canudos, a very interesting chapter in Brazilian history.
Society fun fact:
Brazil, at the time Dom Pedro I left, felt kinda bonded with his son, Don Pedro II, because both Don't Pedro II and Brazil had been abandoned by their father and king.
That's why when Don Pedro II finally came to the power (he was abandoned by his dad when he was ONLY 5, yes, Don Pedro I did sucked as father [as well as king! ]) he was classified as a good king, and he was a reasonable enough king.
It was a "we're in this together" kind of thing. It must have been cool being Brazilian at that time and having this kind of trust in our government
He also sucked as a husband. Poor Leopoldina.

"What did the letter R ever do to you guys" He is just funny without having a punchline with any vulgar or inappropriate lines, I love this guy.
I think I doubled over when I heard that. It's hard to say though, as I was also on the floor.
well, it is a good question...
Bird_Dog It is because not *every* language contain the same pronunciations as in English. In English, the letter “R” is pronounced “Ahr” while in Portuguese, “R” is pronounced “Érre” (Eh-He). Portuguese is a “Lusophonic” language. English is a “Germanic” language. _BIG_ difference.
also, please do an episode of "Guerra dos Cabanos". it's an insurgency on Brazilian's north that was well renown for being exceptionally bloody, and seeked out to separate the state of Grão-Pará from the country.
Also, the main city at the time (Belém, where i live) was held at gunpoint from armed ships with cannons by a certain admiral. Rad as fuck.
Brazilian here! Congratulations, you did a great job! The story is very accurate.
the letter r is kinda rabbit hole by itself in portuguese
I've only learned how to properly pronounce something like "ceRa" when i was 12.
Further complicating things, the pronunciation of the r is one of the things that change the most between accents. The caipira accent even shares the rare retroflex r with some American accents.
You think the r is bad? Try figuring out the x!
@@valente970 it's just a "sh" sound
@@pedromotta4231 It can also be a x, or an s, or a c.
As a brazilian history graduared, i say you nailed! Great video! There is as much tragicomic situations in our history as any other contry history.
Sadly you forgot to mention the bloodbath that was the War of Paraguay and one of the main reasons of Pedro's downfall.

"Declared non-canon by Disney" about killed me haha
A little bit late to comment, but congratulations, great video and great summary.
Just a curious little fact: On Dom Pedro II time, Brazil was the only monarchy on Latin America, but legend says that when Dom Pedro II was exiled it was said through all Latin America that the last true Latin America republican was leaving it.
D. Pedro II also revealed several times that if he could have chosen, he would prefer to be a president than an Emperor. The royal family survived here in Brasil. Even though it is 200 years since the country became a Republic there are still the princes and princesses of Brazil and a part of the family heads a small movement of restauration of the monarchy in Brazil. One of the princes is a federal representative by the way.
"lucky day"
Many historians claim that Portugal already knew about the existence of brazilian lands when they stretched the meridian that separated the spanish territory from the portuguese, so now we don't even call it "discovery" of Brazil, we call it the "arrival" of Pedro Álvares Cabral, because actually Duarte Pacheco Pereira "discovered" our country 2 years before Pedro Álvares Cabral.
tem também a história de que um explirador chinês (não lembro o nome dele) esteve por essas bandas antes dos portugueses
Even if they didn't know, Pedro Álvares still wouldn't have "discovered" it since the land was already claimed by natives.

Also, COFFEE. That was THE biggest commodity in Brazil at the 19th century, and it was to sustain coffee plantations that the Brazilian government, during the slavery ending process, incentived European immigrants to come here (mostly Italians and Germans, who were having issues back in Europe due to their country unification processes). This migration was also related to eugenic efforts to 'whiten' the population, as we had a ton of black people here (and still do, as black and mixed people compose about half the population nowadays).
