The problem with Brazil is that the country is just too big. It will never happen, but I'm confident that the solution to Brazil's rampant corruption and violence is to break up the country. In every single election it's clear that the north and the south are two completely different countries that keep getting into each other's way and preventing the country from evolving.
I don't think it's a coincidence that the best countries in the world to live are geographically small. Large countries like Brazil/US/Russia have way too much stuff and people going on at the same time, it's impossible to manage them properly.
- medo-bear 4y agosure. small countries are much more adept at asserting their independence against bigger countries. also breaking up a country is always a peaceful affair
- mcv 4y agoBreaking up a country is hardly a peaceful affair; it's almost impossible to do. But that doesn't change the fact that he has a point: large countries do seem to be harder to govern and develop effectively.
- medo-bear 4y agolets test the validity of his point by breaking up australia, canada, and maybe the united states

You're just arguing in favour or removing layers of accountability as a solution to rampant corruption.
- matheusmoreira 4y agoI agree with you, south-western and north-eastern Brazil will never reconcile politically. Can you imagine a separatist movement in the 21st century though? São Paulo tried it once last century and got crushed... I bet it would have been a major world power by now had it succeeded.
