This country must be a friendly neighbor, as it borders nearly every other country in South America. Name this giant of the continent.

Not only is Brazil the most populated nation in South America at 209 million (2017), it is also the largest country, neighboring nearly every country on the continent, apart from Chile and Ecuador. Being home to around 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest, Brazil is full of unique animals, including jaguars, armadillos, sloths, anteaters, capuchin monkeys, and many more species. The only South American country to speak Portuguese, the name Brazil comes from the Portuguese, brazilwood.
