Suibhne beat me to this one by just two weeks, I swear we didn't coordinate it this time.

Brazil was a lot of fun to research and I hope you enjoy learning about it's history. Huge thanks to Patron Jaci for helping me with my Portuguese — I really have been spoiled by all of those phonetic Italian spellings.

Next up was going to be a video on Muslim Spain, but that will likely get pushed back a week, because at this very moment, I'm in Florence for a week! So I'll be recording a different type of video while I'm on vacation, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

I should mention that I have a regional Rio accent which is why my ‘r’s’ sound like ‘h’s’ haha. It’s apparently due to French influence. Other cities in Brazil have different accents - people from Sao Paulo for example tend to have more rolled ‘r’s’.

Blue! Seeing as you are in Firenze, you must visit the Uffizi and take a picture next to the statue of Niccolo Machiavelli!

Yaaaaay, Spain! I really love how Muslim heritage has blended with the whole of Spanish culture. It'll be nice to see an external take on it. If you need a hand with that, I'll be glad to help (Spanish, from Madrid). Enjoy your trip!

Hi there! Huge fan of you guys' work here, I've even used some of your videos in my classes! So, I just watched this video, and I have to confess I'm a fair bit disappointed with it; Blue presents a very sanitised version of Brazilian history (for instance, he presents the "official" version of Cabral's ships veering off-course due to a storm - as if God Himself wanted them to reach this new land! -, when it's already been established they came here purposefully; or how Pedro I actually intervened quite a bit in the other branches, seeing as how he styled himself an Absolutist monarch, and that part of the reason why he was so unpopular in Brazil by the end of his reign is because he tried to be King of Portugal at the same time).
