The reason Brazil is spelled with a ‘Z’ is because that’s how it was spelled when the country was founded. Have a read of the constitution from 1824: http://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/Constituicao/Constitui%C3%A7ao24.htm

All the best, Chris

I love futebol and Brazilian futebol is among the best. If pressed for one team to call my favorite I have to say Palmeiras.

The reason for Palmeiras is because the team is primarily for it’s Italian roots. I love Brazil, the people & culture but I am of Italian heritage. Palmeiras was founded and supported by the Italian community in Brazil. In fact, their stadium is called “Palestra Italia”.

Thanks for this topic. Hope to see more on futebol.
