        You talking about the wars in the region? The wars waged by the Empire of Brazil? The Empire controlled by Portuguese monarchs that fled from Europe due to Napoleon.

        The Brazil’s constitution changed eight times since the Empire, the government changed I don’t know many times, the country Brazil is not the same as the Empire of Brazil.

        The majority of Brazilians hate the wars, only some right wing military praise the shit that happen during the time(the same military that controlled the country during the 80s)

          They’re just a western chauvanist trying to absolve themselves of guilt by inventing reasons to bring others down to their level, regardless of bearing on reality.

          The wars that waged even after the declaration of independence of Brazil, though.

          Few years after there was the Paraguayan war.

          I totally agree now Brazil is different, just saying they tried their imperialist moves, just like others.
