Today, Brazil is a major power in the South American continent. It
will host the 2016 Summer Olympics and in 2014, it will host the FIFA World
Cup. Much of Brazil's wealth could be credited with its export of numerous raw
materials. From coffee, to rubber, and even steel are dollar earners for
Brazil. Much of its agricultural exports started during the time when Brazil
was an Empire under Emperor Pedro II.
