One object, and the Brazil that comes out of it
This path was not written by hand: every step is a relation recorded in the corpus, and every name leads to the entity page where the source is.
Territory
Brazil is not a single place
Territory is where cooking happens: state, region and biome change what is grown, who prepares it and what it is called. The cultural map declares what the corpus knows — and what it does not know yet.
