While Brazil was inhabited by various native tribes at the time, when Portuguese explorer Pedro Alvarez Cabral landed there in 1500, he claimed the territory for Portugal. Portuguese is the official language of Brazil.
Pedro Alvares Cabral wanted to explore Brazil in 1500 while en route to India because he was tasked with establishing trade routes and claim land for Portugal. His expedition ended up being the first recorded European encounter with Brazil, leading to the colonization and exploitation of the region.
