It is a popular theory in Brazil that Pedro Alvares Cabral did not actually discover Brazil in 1500, but rather that the Portuguese bided their time till "discovering" it was favourable to their agenda.

The official claim is that, like Christopher Columbus, Cabral was pushed off course due to a wind or storm and ended up finding himself in the coast of Brazil by pure accident.

Which makes your misspelling of his name really funny, because "perdo" means "I lose" in Portuguese. XD
