Then it was "Goodbye Bolivia" and "Hello Brasil".

Ramblings about Brasil:
-Brazil is English, Brasil is Portuguese.
-Portuguese is the language of Brasil because it became a colony of Portugal from the landing of Pedro Álvares Cabral in 1500 until its independence in 1822.
-When Cabral first landed on the Brasilian coast at Porto Seguro, he thought it was an island and called it the Ilha de Vera Cruz (Portuguese for Island of the True Cross).
-In the 16th C, they realized it wasn't an island and renamed the collection of colonies Terra de Santa Cruz.
-Cabral appears on the bronze-plated second series centavo coin that began circulation in 1998 (but they stopped making them in 2003 and most retailers now round their prices to the nearest 5 or 10 centavos. 1 Real (R$) = 100 centavos. Bolivia also has their own centavos, 100 of which are worth 1 Boliviano (Bs), only they have stopped making coins worth less than 10 centavos. 1 Real is worth about 3 and 1/2 Bolivianos (actually 3.64297) or 1/2 of a Canadian dollar (0.580592).
