The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- During the 300 years of Brazilian colonial history, the main economic activities of the territory were based first on brazilwood extraction, which gave the territory its name, sugar production, and finally on gold and diamond mining.
- Slaves, especially those brought from Africa, provided most of the workforce of the Brazilian export economy after a brief initial period of Indigenous slavery to cut brazilwood.
- In contrast to the neighboring Spanish possessions, which had several viceroyalties, the colony of Brazil was settled mainly in the coastal area by the Portuguese and a large black slave population working on sugar plantations and mines.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Colonial Brazil article was read about 90,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 86 and blocks with 80: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
