Factual errors. Unscientific claims.

The leading paragraph of this article is misleading, while also rife with factual errors. Pedro Álvares Cabral made landfall on April 1500, not 1549. After initial discovery, the lands later known as Brazil were left unattended by the Portuguese monarchy for about three decades. As a matter of fact, the main event in 1549 was the initial settlement of jesuits in Brazil, which can latter be traced to genocide by marking the beginning of cultural assimilation of indigenous populations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.181.27.18 (talk) 16:43, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

I've corrected these and a few other claims in the lead.User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 17:37, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Outdated Article

This article talks about the indigenous genocide in Brazil as if it were something from the past, when in fact it is literally happening today. It should be updated and focused on the genocide that is currently happening. Westerindoeuropeanjudeochristiangraecoroman (talk) 17:48, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
