• There are 2, 500 airports in Brazil
• The Capybara is the world’s largest rodent at 70Kg and can be seen in herds of 100s in the Pantanal wetlands
• Brazilians are football crazy. They have won the World Cup five times and are the hosts in 2014
• The capital is not Rio or Sao Paulo but futuristic Brasilia
• 30% of the world’s oxygen comes from the Amazon rainforest
