Brazil, Missouri facts for kids
Brazil was once a small town in Washington County, Missouri, in the United States. Today, it is known as an "extinct town" or a ghost town, meaning it no longer exists as a populated place.
A post office was opened in Brazil in 1889. It served the community for many years before closing down in 1955. It's a bit of a mystery why this particular place was named "Brazil."
