Portugal took over Brazil as a colony. This is why most people in Brazil speak Portuguese. In fact, at one point, the country was actually ruled from Rio de Janeiro.

The European nation who takes credit for discovering the already inhabited land area currently known as Brazil was Portugal.
After Napoleon's invasion of Portugal in 1807, the Portuguese royal family fled to Brazil, transforming the colony into the center of the Portuguese Empire. This led to significant political and social changes, including the elevation of Brazil's status and an influx of European culture and administration. In 1822, Brazil declared independence, largely influenced by the newfound autonomy and the royal family's presence, marking a shift from a colony to an independent nation.
Portugal's Pedro Alvarez Cabral was the first European to explore Brazil (April 22nd1500). Brazil remained a Portuguese colony until she gained independence almost three centuries later (September 7th 1822).
