A japanese company once did a patent of the Açai Berry, with is originally from the amazon and part of Pará state native culture. People from Pará were at the risk of being sued just by calling the fruit by its name or selling it without authorization, in 2007 Brazil won a judicial race and the patent expired, since then Brazil suported the spread of açai around the country so it never gets patented again.
since then many brazilian vloggers consume açai to larp as cultural and vegie but it is now aready part of the daily life and you can açai shops everywhere

Are you angry?

No, are you?

So that's how that whole gay açai superfruit trend started? Açai bowl joints are becoming more common here, but only in wealthy areas because they're so fucking overpriced

yeah, pretty much. With the end of the patent every major food producing company in Brazil joined the açai market. there are many açai stands near the coast zone of my city and a lot more spread around the town, it just exploded from 2006 to 2010 and now is growing around the world, but açai is kinda cheap here

Mostly relative lack of Latin borrowings.

Ah, yeah, I'm a bit familiar with that one. There was also an attempt to establish a Hispanic Floridian Republic completely unrelated to the West Florida Republic.

Interesting. Next World Cup we will probably suck like the last time. At least when Jogi Löw will be the Coach again.

NZ is a shithole

The lebanons who had hope for you guys obviously cringed and switched side.

France is probably the most overated coutry in the world, and when I talk about France I mean Gomorra bis, Paris.

bumpino for more based Jow Forumseractions and random world knowledge

Canada has the largest mall in the Americas. When the West Edmonton Mall was made, it was the largest in the world. To this day, it still has the largest parking lot, among other world records.

purchasing power is higher than Sweden's, Australia's and Canada's yet these cunts act as if the reverse was true

Haiti ?

In Canada, the police give citizens "positive tickets" when they see them doing good things, like crossing the street safely, picking up litter, etc. These positive tickets in my city are typically a free day pass at the local swimming pool.

One of the most important political topics in the last years has been something called "digitalization", but no one actually knows what that really means

Positive reinforcement, nice.

It means giving all preschoolers iPads so that they can feel cool and modern
dunno what the benefit is supposed to be tho

The court case which equates anti-draft fliers to shouting fire in a crowded theater has since been ignored and overruled by the court.

Somehow it remind me of the chinese credit sistem

There's no credit score or something like that. It's just free stuff like a free meal at a local restaurant, free movie ticket, free hockey game ticket, etc.

Yeah, but that's a good one. Positive reinforcement instead of negative. It also doesn't take your rights off, unlike the Chinese one.

In Portugal we like to eat snails while we drink beer, and it's a very popular thing

It's not free, you're literally paying for this with your tax money, you dumb fucking leaf cuck piece of shit.

He had a similar plan to be done in all schools around brazil, but it receieved a veto from the head of state because we simply don't have the money, the governament seems to aways forget they are rulling brazil and not swizerland

Our province Alberta has entirely outlawed rats and law enforcement takes this very seriously. Try smuggling a pet rat into Alberta. If you are caught living with a pet rat there, they WILL euthanize it and fine you up to $5000.

We have a town named Swastika. Also there's a silly story about how a girl from there was a Hitler fangirl and sent him obsessed fan letters.

The brazilian governament owns more than 40 million hectars of land bought to be used in an agro reform, but not even 10% of it was used for such means

>he

Back when we were deciding on a name for Canada, the most popular suggestions were:
>Borealia
>Cabotia
(Named after John Cabot)
>Transatlantica
>Victorialand
(Named after Queen Victoria)
>Superior
(Named after Lake Superior)

God, imagine if we chose the name Superior. Just... Superior.
>Why yes, I do come from the country known as Superior, how could you tell?

Please don't be mean in my christian thread

Literally all of that is better than naming your country after the eskimo word for hut.

It's the Iroquois word for village... Canada doesn't even have Eskimos. Eskimos are an ethnic group in Alaska. Inuits, who live in Canada, are related to Eskimos by language family.

Even without regarding the etymological origin of "Canada" every single one of those sounds better than what you have now

I don't really like the sound of Borealia or Victorialand though. The rest sound fine to me, however.

>Borealia
Pretty name, but it looks like a name that would've been given to a country on Oceania or one of these in-between the Europen/Asian/Middle-Eastern limits
>Cabotia
Remembers me of Camboja, Afrika tier name.
>Transatlantica
Looks like some company's name
>Victorialand
Seems appropriate
>Superior
Perfect

Paris can be absolutely great dependin on where you live in the suburbs

>>Victorialand
>Seems appropriate
No. -ia and -land should NEVER go together.

Canada has the "Apology Act". This means that apologizing in court, saying "sorry" is not an admission of guilt, but an expression of compassion and empathy. This reflects on how Canadians use the word "sorry"; we do typically say it when we feel bad for someone, even if it wasn't our fault.

The Halloween phrase "Trick or treat" comes from Canada! In fact, it was largely Canadians who introduced Americans to Halloween traditions, not the other way around.

>Indeed I am Superian, how could you tell

Canadians also invented basketball.

>Pretty name, but it looks like a name that would've been given to a country on Oceania or one of these in-between the Europen/Asian/Middle-Eastern limits

No it doesnt. It sounds like a very cold country.

I think he means it sounds like such a soulless name, even compared to Canada. Ocean-ia? Boreal-ia? Those names don't make it sound interesting in any way. At least with Canada someone might wonder where the name Canada came from.

Why would i be proud of some lizard

Our $100 bills are scented with maple syrup unironically.

But it sounding soulless would fit with canada.

No!

chile has a goverment agency for UFOs

We also unironically dip popsicle sticks in maple syrup, roll them around in the snow, and eat them. It's a favorite snack!

I know some people who use maple syrup instead of sugar in tea and stuff. Is that common?

it's actually pronounced "ma'am"

Sounds expensive but yeah I've put syrup in my tea before.

OK, not going to bother thinking of anything else, gotta sleep soon. Seeya.

despite common belief, Italy is the fourth net contributor in the EU, with a net contribution of ~4 billion euros in 2017 alone

We have the longest bridge in Europe

There are a number of references to the legend of Jason and the Argonauts here in Slovenia. There is a legend that the Argonauts' voyage took them up the Sava river and then the Ljubljanica river. They killed a dragon on the site of our capital, Ljubljana, which is why the dragon has symbolic value and appears on the coat of arms and in a number of architectural sites (most notably, the so-called Dragon bridge). The second part of the story claims that the Argonauts had to disembark once they reached too far up the river and had to carry their ship. On the spot where they ended their journey by ship, they allegedly founded the town of Vrhnika which still has the Argonauts' ship in its coat of arms.

>Borealia
would have been based

We're actually not polite or apologetic at all we just say sorry to end the conversation and avoid conflict or confrontation because we're brainwashed by our media that feelings are more important than facts.

From 1808 to 1821 Rio de Janeiro was the seat of the Portuguese Empire
