Brazil is the largest country in South America and the fourth most populated democracy in the world. Brazil's economy is larger than any other South American country due to its strong agricultural, mining and industrial sectors, though the country still struggles with a 10 percent unemployment rate. The Brazilian government has made the alleviation of poverty one of its top priorities. While many Brazilians enjoy access to improved water sources, nearly 20 million are still without access in forgotten or neglected rural areas. Brazil boasts amazing plant and animal diversity and is home to approximately 40 percent of the world's remaining rainforest.
