    has happened. The House of Braganza has fled! Ships that carry the queen and prince regent can be seen in the distance and the whole court has abandoned the heart of their empire. Fleeing into exile and reestablishing its rule in its wildest and largest imperial territories, Brazil.

      @@cseijifja as far as i'm aware, most places now consider North and South America to be separate continents, which is the reason for the pluralization, though central and south america seem to be the notable exception.
      Of course, this is likely because american control of the panama canal has forced people into making this distinction, but regardless, this is now the default linguistic device in english to describe the continents.
      "America" as a singular term for the continent is now largely considered archaic outside of the continents themselves. Whether this is fair or not is opinion, but "the americas" is now considered the correct term.

      "Resves, Campo de Ourique" is a reference to the lisbon earthquake.
      because the Campo de Ourique region was not affected by the earthquake. The expression you're referring to is "ficaram a ver navios", wich means "watching ships".

They are snooty rich no-bodies who live in Portugal and believe they should be put back in charge of Brazil. Which is par-de-course for most ex-nobility. Problem is they actually have a following among Brazilians who in turn are one of the many sources of fake-news in our country.

    The Knightmares would have been called Conquistadores.

    It's worth noting that Portugal and England (And so Britain after the Act of Union) had been allies for a long long time.

For some - me included - there is the opinion that he was the best governor/ruler of Brazil of all time. (Disclaimer: I am not a monarquist). In a Brazillian version of '100 greatest briton' - but for brazillians, ofc - he ranked 30th. In a nation that lacks good education, they still remembered what he did and his importance.

How can someone from great priveledge, stay in Brazil and fight for their independence and then leave and fight in the muddy trenches in Portugal where he got tuberculosis that ultimatly killed him. He wrote to brazilian claiming his blood was the same as the slaves , when asking for the freedom of these. Royalty of the time wouldnt compare themselves to that in any effect.
