## Trivia

* Brazilian's original nickname on the internet was Wallep.
	+ This is still reflected on his Minecraft and Steam nicknames.
	+ His current name was chosen when he created his channel in 2017 during a livestream by EmperorTigerstar and asked chat whether to choose between "Wallep Mapping" or "Brazilian Mapping". A person whose name is lost to history replied with the latter.
	+ Oddly, despite there being a reasonable number of Brazilian mappers in 2017, there were none who had uploaded videos and had that exact name combination until then.
	+ Brazilian avoided the nickname "Braz" for a long time to avoid confusion with another BMC member.
* Brazilian originally created his channel to upload a non-fictional History of the 20th Century mapping series. Only two episodes were completed in mid-2017 and uploaded later that year.
	+ Sarajevo, his 2021 April Fools video, is a reference to this.
	+ Brazilian is, ostensibly, a frustrated videomapper, with several aborted projects of varying quality. This aspect of his work lived on through his defunct Mappers' nations project and, more recently, his extensive documentation of the BMC Minecraft Universe.
* Before conceiving Varna, Brazilian planned two different regular mapping series in late 2017 and early 2018.
	+ An Alternate Future of the World which revolved around the many-worlds interpretation, on a similar note to the then-popular Proxima-Imperialis Multiverse. In it, the ability to travel between timelines was discovered in a world where the Habsburgs won the Thirty Years' War and conquered the world, with nations originating from there invading our world. There would also be a non-nuclear World War III between an expanded NATO (despite the fragmentation of the United States) and a massive Russo-Chinese bloc known as the BSCO.
	+ An Alternate Future of Europe which had protagonism from Qatar as it aligned with Iran to gain influence across the Middle East, ultimately betraying them. There were also vague ideas of an Alexander-esque eastwards expansion by Greece.
* Before the BMC Minecraft Universe, Brazilian had already been involved in a series of related survival Minecraft servers with hints of geopolitical roleplay between 2014 and 2017.
* Brazilian is known to have recurring and frequent migraines.
* Brazilian claims to be "obsessed with very specific things". Some obsessions include:
	+ BMC itself, this very Wiki and the BMC Minecraft Universe;
	+ Spaceflight and the Solar System in general, especially the history of spaceflight;
	+ The evolution of national borders and obscure historical polities, especially during the 20th century;
	+ Various games such as Portal, Outer Wilds, Stray, The Talos Principle, Kerbal Space Program, Half-Life, Ace Attorney, Mirror's Edge, The Entropy Centre, Firewatch, The Stanley Parable and What Remains of Edith Finch;
	+ Various shows such as Attack on Titan, Stranger Things, Money Heist, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Murder Drones, Meta Runner, The Amazing Digital Circus, The Backrooms, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and Ordem Paranormal;
	+ Coca-Cola;
	+ Registering information, especially about himself, which may explain the length of this Trivia section.
