Brazil was the only economic power in the West which recorded continous 5% growth while others were in recession - pretty good. Your point about Nigeria is correct. It is no where near as stable as South Africa, and South Africa isn't exactly that stable either, lol.

Trust Brazil to be the first one to enter the "first world" status out of the countries, if it ain't so already, lol.
