I’m talking about the name, we were “United states of Brazil” from our republic until 1968, after that the name changed to “Federation republic of Brazil”. I’m dont know a lot about how powerful states were back then, so what changed, but today states in Brazil have a little fraction of the independence that US states have.
From 1968 Brazil is not United States anymore, we are a Federative Republic.
Isn’t a federation a union of states?
