Brazil is one of the biggest economies in the world. They possess a wide variety of natural resources and many private corporations are important participants on the global scene. Brazil's GDP per capita in 2016 was $ 15,100. In other words, that is the amount of money the average Brazilian would earn in a year.

However, there is a weak correlation with the distribution of wealth, as one can see in their social progress index (SPI), which was 73.91 (the higher one gets to 100 is better) in 2016. This means that there is a greater accumulation of wealth within the minorities and the majority of Brazilian's don't actually earn the amount stated in the GDP per capita.

One can rapidly notice this, as Brazil has faced the social problem of "the fabellas" for many years. The fabellas are communities of people who live in the surroundings of big cities. They are characterized for being places where poor people live and widespread crime occurs.
