Brazil is the world's fifth largest country, both by geographical area and by population. Bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the east, Brazil has a stunning coastline of 7,491 km (4,655 mi) and shares a border with every South American country except for Ecuador and Chile. Its size, relief, climate, and natural resources make Brazil geographically and climatically diverse, with environments ranging from equatorial rainforests in the north, semiarid deserts in the northeast, temperate coniferous forests in the south and tropical savannas in central Brazil.
Brazil is a cultural melting pot. The core Portuguese culture was influenced by African, indigenous, non-Portuguese European and Asian cultures and traditions, derived from the many waves of immigrants, who were always welcome to this amazing country, and whose contributions influenced Brazil's language, cuisine, music, dance and religion.
