The wars that waged even after the declaration of independence of Brazil, though.

Few years after there was the Paraguayan war.

I totally agree now Brazil is different, just saying they tried their imperialist moves, just like others.

Few years after there was the Paraguayan war.

Commanded by a prince, counts, viscounts, marquess and a Duke. Portuguese monarchy.
