Religion
[edit]- Catholic: 50%
- Protestant: 31%
- No religion: 11%
- Spiritism: 3%
- Other: 4,3%
- Catholic: 51%
- Protestant: 28%
- No specific faith: 12%
- Other religions: 5%
- Catholic: 52.8%
- Protestant: 26.7%
- No religion: 14.2%
- Other: 4.8%
The data on religion in the infobox needs to be corrected, the percentage of people without religion in Brazil does not reach 19%. As a Brazilian, I think the CIA's 2023 estimates are closer to reality. Mawer10 (talk) 13:23, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- It doesn't make any sense to consider spiritism as 'other religions' since they believe fully in Jesus Christ, and therefore they are Christians. 2804:1E68:C201:5E94:435:455D:3B12:B756 (talk) 23:00, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- There's no "Christians" at the comment. Only Protestants and Catholics. Do you believe that spiritism can be considered one of those? André Ishida (talk) 21:38, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
Coat of arms
[edit]Twice recently, an editor has changed the infobox of this article to use the "dark blue" coat of arms rather than the sky-blue one. However, Coat of arms of Brazil says that the dark blue version was only used until 1968, and since then, either sky blue or a very slightly darker version of sky blue has been used.

What about their cusine and foods, diversity?

- That is already present and of adequate length under Culture / Cuisine. Fbergo (talk) 11:35, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
Form of government in Brazil
[edit]Brazil's form of government is a representative democracy, with periodic and direct elections, where citizens elect their politicians and representatives in a direct, clean and fair manner.Brazil is a Federation composed of federative units (the states And the head of government and head of state is the President of the Republic, directly elected by popular vote. In other words, Brazil is a Democratic Presidential Federal Republic. I had added this to the page about Brazil but it ended up being undone by a colleague at Wikipedia I decided to write this to explain better. Poul Yoshida (talk) 04:20, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
Grammatical error in Demographics
[edit]"Outside in the Arab world, Brazil also has the largest population of Arab ancestry in the world, with 15–20 million people." should be "Outside of the Arab world, Brazil also has the largest population of Arab ancestry in the world, with 15–20 million people."
I'd edit it myself but I don't have access yet. Bearfrost (talk) 18:28, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
