Isn't colonial Brazil part of Brazil history?? The article about brazilian history should have contained colonial Brazil in the first place!! by Benhpark
The article should not be merged. The article is part of a series in the HISTORY OF BRAZIL. Not the history of Portugese colonization.
Do not merge: Portugal also attempted to colonise parts of North America, like Newfoundland in Canada, which could be dealt with in Portuguese colonization of the Americas. Besides, the history of colonial Brazil includes the unsuccessfull attempts by the French and the Dutch to colonise parts of Brazil, and a great part of Brazil (Amazon, the South) legally belonged to Spain under the Treaty of Tordesillas, and was explored by the Spaniards (like the Amazon river, which was first explored by Spanish explorers). Thus, even though colonial Brazil coincides almost 100% with the Portuguese colonization of the Americas, they are not exactly the same thing. Fsouza 12:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
