== LORONHA == 

 IF YOU ARE THE IGNORAMUS WHO THINKS ALL THE NONSENSE ABOUT LORONHA THAT IS STILL THERE (SUCH AS A TRANSFER OF THE LEASE IN 1512) YOU NEED A NEW BRAIN. ONE WOULD HAVE TO BE A FOOL TO THINK THE PORTUGUESE CROWN WOULD LEASE OUT BRAZIL FOR THREE YEARS (1502-1505) AND THEN IN 1506 CREATE A NEW TEN YEAR LEASE ON DIFFERENT TERMS THAT OVERLAPPED THE FIRST LEASE RETROACTIVELY. YOU MUST THINK MANUEL I WAS A COMPLETE NINCOMPOOP. THE REAL NINCOMPOOP IS SOMEONE WHO WOULD ATTRIBUTE SUCH STUPIDITY TO A PORTUGUESE KING. JOHNSON CLARIFIED THE MATTER COMPLETELY. BUT IDIOTS REFUSE TO UNDERSTAND AND PERSIST IN THEIR MORONIC ERRORS. BUT SO BE IT. WIKI IS A HANGOUT FOR MORONS WHO PRETEND TO KNOW A LOT ABOUT THINGS THEY DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT AT ALL AND THAT CERTAINLY INCLUDES THE EARLY HISTORY OF BRAZIL. GO TO A GOOD UNIVERSITY. TAKE A COURSE IN BRAZILIAN HISTORY. DON'T JUST INVENT THINGS OUT OF NOTHING.
