Canada is a funny thing, when you think of it. When a colonizer has a colony, or multiple colonies near each other, it seems it always loses all the colonies together, or close to each other. Yet, the British never lost Canada. They lost the Thirteen Colonies, but they kept Canada, and many English loyalists went there.
So, could Brazil have its own "Portuguese Canada"? Where?
I'm thinking "Portuguese Canada" would logically be Grão-Pará, due to distance and logistics - Lisboa is closer to Belém than Rio de Janeiro, and the North was the last part of Portuguese America to join Brazil. Its also important to remember Grão-Pará & Maranhão was administered directly by Portugal for a long time.
Perhaps the Northeast, but it was the Portuguese defeat in the Northeast that won Brazil the war, after all.
Any idea of a good PoD that could result in Brazil having its own Canada?
