Everything Built So Far In 1:1 Brazil Minecraft

Have you guys ever heard about a city called Sao Paulo apparently it’s the largest city in South America oh actually the largest city in all of America beating even New York I only heard about this recently imagine living on one half of the world and not even

Knowing that the largest city inside of it exists but here’s the thing about this place descending from the heavens like some sort of ethereal demigod floating down with my mouse and scroll wheel from the safety of my computer with Google Maps has me realizing just how unbelievably huge this place is what

An unplanned sprawling monstrosity but you can get that with Mexico City and a number of other places what really makes this insane are the skyscrapers they’re everywhere every building from City sector to City sector are high-rise buildings are they apartments hotels is it Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated I

Guess the answer is yes what’s crazy about this is we built Seattle’s downtown a few years ago and when doing 1000 buildings we started to run out of skyscrapers at the so I just assumed most huge cities would be similar oh no

No no no no no no no no no no you see this and you see this they just never end it’s got to be at least 10 000 skyscrapers here or even more this place must have been impossible to navigate before Google Maps and GPS’s from what

I’ve been reading life here is kind of chaos yet I’m unexplainably attracted to it like I would want to spend six months here to know what’s really going on high crime rate though the craziest thing when thinking about this city is that we have to build this staggering monolith

Every street building car well not car we went over that in a previous video all of it in Minecraft the idea leaves several of my body’s orifice is puckering with trepidation and anxiety but we have South American teams in the project and they’re some of the hardest

Working teams in the entire project what they’ve completed so far is insane qualifying for the top 10 in completed buildings for all of build the earth based on our census video last year but they’ve accomplished way more than that since then some might even say double and with their largest city being the

Most chaotic metropolistic sea of sun-baked concrete buzzing with the Commerce and life of human activity that I’ve ever seen and only recently learned of its existence there’s a seemingly infinite amount of opportunity to push that score as high as they want lots of you were asking for a series like this

And I’ve always wanted to do it why not start with one of the largest and underrated cities and teams in the world in terms of potential accomplishment here’s everything team Brazil has ever done so first things first the most prominent Civic buildings of note congresso Nacional and Supremo tribunal

Federal among several others these buildings have actually been through a lot did you know that Brazil was a military dictatorship for an entire 20 years of recent history yeah 1964-1985. full stop closing Congress suspending their constitution torturing thousands arresting all resistance including University professors and musicians it was crazy you should have

Seen it the craziest part about this is we didn’t just support it we aided the coopedia Todd and dictatorial regime okay by we I mean the United States government at the time not build the Earth the organization but why why would we do that American influence was everywhere during that time anywhere

They could even think communism might be springing up we were there in an instant supporting the opposition joao gullard’s Administration was pretty left not quite communist but the Kennedys were worried that it might eventually be crazy to think that a goddamn Brazilian Revolution was going on while we were

Landing on the moon now we can’t talk about Brazil without mentioning Christ the Redeemer constructed in the 1920s in response to what was perceived by the religious as godlessness in the culture at the time this big statue of Jesus is one of the modern wonders of the world

If you take a look at it here in Google Maps the entire Hill it’s situated on is gorgeous and while we’ve built it in Minecraft terraforming of the Hillside and surrounding area has only begun recently this year marks the 100 year anniversary since its construction I

Totally planned that but to me the 1920s still seemed like 70 years ago now look there’s no denying that a gigantic statue of Jesus situated on a romantic Hillside is going to be quite the tourist attraction with every middle-aged mom holding a map with a backpack taking Ubers and taxi cabs to

See it generating tons of revenue for the tourist industry in Brazil but generally when I’m traveling I like to take more obscure interests wander off the beaten path and find something that very few people know about for unique experience if you want to experience religious architecture in South America

You could go see a giant statue of Jesus or you could find an underwater Church drowned out by a man-made Reservoir that used to have a small town sitting in the valley this town that they call Old petrolandia had people living there enough for them to actually construct a

Church with a beautiful Archway but flood waters from the dam caused the entire area to start flooding forcing everyone to flee their homes and abandon the area this half-submerged church seems to be the only thing that’s left standing you can actually take boat tours and even snorkel around which if

This existed in the United States they probably wouldn’t let you do since the water will eventually cause this Archway to crumble and fall and there’s a small chance someone could be exploring it during that time the anal Obsession we have for safety here would stifle all in

Any sense of exploration if the United States had this they might even tear it down like they’ve been doing recently with all interesting and abandoned ghost towns yes that’s happening and I’m not happy about it oh we should probably build those in Minecraft before they disappear that’s a good idea the team

Building all of this in Minecraft also built this highway me and Rafa who is guiding me on the tour ran through it as far as we could it’s amazing to consider as as progress continues that there will be areas where you can travel highways for miles and see human civilization

Fully completed just like in real life Rafa has also spent the last year heavily terraforming and building this huge Park area interestingly enough in this park we walked by what appears to be a really sketchy abandoned electrical Tower which I took some interest in while this may or may not be safe to

Explore in real life the great thing about exploring it in Minecraft is that we can explore things like these completely safe well except for the radiation glaring out of the screens and being absorbed in our eyes and brains worth the trade-off who knows we’ll know a lot more about the effects of screens

On humans in another 100 years once we’ve all succumbed to the effects anyways Brazil also has lots of statues specifically ones of teradentes and our team has built a few of them tiradentes had planned a Brazilian revolt against Portugal in the 1700s much like the American Revolution that they had

Planned to begin on tax day by but one of the Rebel conspirators betrayed the plot in order to get his taxes waived that Year everyone was arrested and exiled except pterodentes who was sentenced to death his revolution had not planned for the abolishment of slavery which wouldn’t happen until

1888. and in today’s Brazilian culture tear dentist is seen and honored as a hero in terms of everything that team Brazil has done we couldn’t show you all of it even if we wanted to we wouldn’t be able to find it all it’s thousands and thousands of buildings but the

Progress is immeasurable including completed areas in Nova elinda de Norte statues along the boardwalk in iraqaju including Finnish sectors also an incredible Island in Recife much like the one we did in Miami which looks amazing when fully finished and the Sao Pedro Sao Paulo archipelago which the

Country of Brazil really really wants to have the International Community recognized as its territory so they built a scientific Observatory there and keep it staffed in order to prove that the area is habitable another time they did this is when asserting ownership over their territories in Antarctica

They went as far as to send pregnant women in the 70s and 80s to their Antarctic bases to prove that they had an Antarctic population so out of the 12 people or so who have bragging rights of being the only people ever born in Antarctica I think almost all of them

Are Brazilian there’s also the Arenas dastunas in Rio Grande the sand slopes in Porto seguro completed buildings and parks in the Osorio square rothsaurus square in menus drives not to be confused with Minas Tira completed city blocks in downtown Novo hamburgo which has plenty of hamburger joints downtown

Santa Maria with a lot of progress also residing in the state of Rio Grande also Arena de gramio which is very recently constructed in both real life and Minecraft since when you go there in Google Earth its 3D still shows a construction site they also have a considerable amount done in places like

Montenegro fully completed unique Bridge Styles in many different places within the country and they’ve even made progress in congenas International Airport in Sao Paulo the first thing you’re going to see if you go there on vacation and concerning Sao Paulo they’ve built some impressive chunks of

It I did a lot of research on what life is like here and it’s pretty wild Brazil still seems to be in a power struggle where the state itself and its criminal underbelly are fighting for the spirit of the country Sao Paulo authorities are in a constant state of negotiation

Regarding the largest gangs and criminal organizations in the area to the point of when negotiations break down absolute Mayhem can ensue in terms of its culture it’s a lot like New York was 30 years ago High rates of crime in specific areas some districts being remarkably

Safer with the city itself being full of life and its culture New York has been cleansed and some people refer to it as a type of Disneyland now in a word United States culture lost a piece of its Soul when organized crime eventually lost the battle to the state when they

Were finally disintegrated in the late 90s and early 2000s and New York is a really good example of this if this is a larger pattern in the progression of human society it’s very likely that places like Sao Paulo will eventually go the same route as it stands it’s still a

Vibrant exciting chaotic and interesting City that exemplifies the heart and soul of Brazilian culture so enjoy it now and visit Brazil today whether that’s in real life or on our Minecraft server buildtheearth.net a huge girthy-sized thanks to our top tier patrons Almighty svet Eccles Jack Larson ji Yang Megan
