In the 1500s portuguese explorers had brought catholelism and this religion had started the carnival. Another thing they do is have a party before lent and lent is 40 days before Easter. As you can tell in Brazil they have a lot of things they do that is important to them. ]]> 2017-04-04 18:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164700306 2021heatherw https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701145 the veijigante is celebrated in puerto Rico's carnival. They represent evil. what they do is dress up in either a clown or bat costume, these costumes fabrics are bright colored. Now the masks, there masks are creepy they have horns,big teeth and other features that make them creepier. They only come around during the carnival time as well.]]> 2017-04-04 18:13:48 UTC https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701145 2021heatherw https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701234 In Puerto Rico what they do is celebrate the carnival before the beginning of lent. Puerto Rico celebrates this carnival because it's to celebrate the victory of the good versus evil. In Brazil what they do is dress up in crazy costumes and they celebrate the carnival to bring all cultures together before lent begins.]]> 2017-04-04 18:14:07 UTC https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701234 2021heatherw https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701509 Differences:
The carnival in Puerto Rico is very different then the carnival in Brazil because in puerto rico they have the veijigante's and they are a big symbol of this carnival. they celebrate this carnival to enjoy the good and evil power. Now in Brazil this is a happy carnival and what they do is dance and a very famous dance they do is the samba. they have a big parade and have floats where dance schools preform and is graded based on 10 categories.  I would love to go see the carnival in Puerto Rico because I want to see all the things happening around me. I would also like to see the carnival in Brazil because they look like a whole lot of fun!
Similarities: 
That it is a hudge celebration. Also, they have bright colors that show creative things. Also, one last thing is that their carnival is based on religious beliefs.]]> 2017-04-04 18:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/2021heatherw/pwt6r60tn9cy/wish/164701509
