Photos of Brazil

Aquamarine, often called the treasure of mermaids, is found and mined in Brazil and in countries that fall along the Mozambique geological belt in Africa. The “Dom Pedro,” the largest single piece of cut-gem aquamarine in the world, was found in a Brazilian mine in the late 1980s and is named after Brazil’s first two emperors (both named Pedro). The original crystal, weighing roughly 45 kg (100 lb), shattered into three pieces during excavation. The largest section (pictured) was sculpted into an obelisk shape about 35.5 cm (14 in) tall and weighing 10,363 carats or 2.1 kg (4.6 lbs). It is part of the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History's collection in Washington, DC. Photo courtesy of the Smithsonian/ Greg Polley.

Age structure

2024 population pyramid:
This is the population pyramid for Brazil. A population pyramid illustrates the age and sex structure of a country's population and may provide insights about political and social stability, as well as economic development. The population is distributed along the horizontal axis, with males shown on the left and females on the right. The male and female populations are broken down into 5-year age groups represented as horizontal bars along the vertical axis, with the youngest age groups at the bottom and the oldest at the top. The shape of the population pyramid gradually evolves over time based on fertility, mortality, and international migration trends. <br/><br/>For additional information, please see the entry for Population pyramid on the Definitions and Notes page.
