Sovereign projection: Equal Earth centered on 60° W, south up, as on IBGE's world maps. Colonial projection: Equal Earth. Places with uncertain presence take the color of the highest possible level; the table shows the full range.

04How we got this number
- Presence abroad
Sum of each place's weight: widespread = 1, regional = 0.5, marginal = 0.1. Where it only exists as a Brazilian export, the weight is multiplied by 0.5.
- 3.5
- Exclusivity E
From 0 (exists everywhere) to 1 (only in Brazil), on a log scale.
- 0.67
- Intensity I
How much more common it is in Brazil than in the other places where it exists.
Fictional prevalence ratio of 3.2 times that of Portugal. [2]
Prevalence ratio: 3.2×
- 2 of 4
- Rarity coefficient R
R = E + 0.5 × (I ÷ 4) × (1 − E)
R = 0.67 + 0.5 × (2 ÷ 4) × (1 − 0.67) = 0.76
