portugese, and south america.
The lady I dont know. The man is your president? The currency is the Brazillian dollar. Allthough Brazillio sounds cooler.
Dont feel angsty about our obliviousness. Most non Canadians cant answer these same questions about my fair nation
Who is our Prime Minister?
Economic system?
Primary Export?
Etc...
Allthough Im willing to bet Brazils Primary Export is wood.

You know, upon looking back, I've realized that I can't answer most of these questions about
my own
country!

What's Brazil's currency?: Reol or something?
What's Brazil's official language?: Portugese
The only countries I really no anything about outside of the US is Britain and Russia, one because they were our owners for awhile and one of the greatest allies and Russia because they had the nukes in the 60's.

Isn't the woman your counsel lady, or some other figure in high government?

Almeida, did you see that news about statistics showing that strangers know more about our country than we do, is that it?

On the contrary Grandy. We know about other countries more then they know about us. These same questions were made in Italy, and people answered things as "Brazil is in Africa", the currency is the dollar or the peso, that our president was Hugo Chavez (FOR GOD SAKES, ANYONE BUT HIM!) and so on. No one recognized the most rich and sucessful and hot model in the earth (entitled über model by the international fashion community) GIsele Bundchen. Nor did they recognize our stupid little dwarfish (entitled über idiot by us, brazillians) president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Lula, to the haters.
I was impressed because in school I had to study the whole USA's and world's history, the geography of the whole freaking world, culture, religion and so on...And they don't even know our CONTINENT!
I'm not angry, just...@_@
