BRAZIL: Campeonato Brasileiro Série A
The Brasileirao is the highest division of Brazilian football and
is presently composed of 20 teams. Due to its large continental
size and historical peculiarities Brazil only has a short history of
national competitions -the modern Campeonato Brasileiro was only founded
in 1971- therefore, unlike other football nations every state of Brazil
has its own state competition and these are generally regarded
as just as important as the national competitions.
