Brazil’s Government • Brazil is a Democratic Federative Republic government. • Brazil is a limited government. • Brazil’s power is distributed in the state of Sao Paulo and is distributed equally among the government officals. • Brazil’s government is very similar to the United States… -We have a House of Representatives called "Camara dos Deputados Federais", we have a Senate called "Senado Federal", which constitutes the Legislative branch and the Judicial branch called "Supremo Tribunal Federal", pretty much like the United States Supreme Court. http://grandcanyon.free.fr/images/cascade/original/Iguassu%20Falls,%20Brazil.jpg
