It is bordered on the north by Venezuela, Guyana and Suriname; on the northwest by Colombia; on the west by Bolivia and Peru; on the southwest by Corrientes/Entre Ríos and Paraguay and on the south by Uruguay.

Brazil was a colony of Portugal from the landing of Pedro Álvares Cabral in 1500 until 1815, when it was elevated to United Kingdom with Portugal and Algarves. The colonial bond was in fact broken in 1808, when the capital of the Portuguese Kingdom was transferred from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro, after Napoleon invaded Portugal. The independence from Portugal was achieved in 1822 ,and recognized two years later.the bicameral legislature, the General Assembly, dates back to 1824, when the first constitution was ratified. Its current Constitution defines Brazil as a Monarchy. The country consists of the Neutral Municipality, the 36 States, and the 5564 Municipalities. The Brazilian economy is the world's eighth largest economy by nominal GDP and the ninth largest by purchasing power parity. Brazil is one of the world's fastest growing major economies.
