You dont generally think about Brazil when talking about World War Two. Still, they joined the Allied powers in 1942, after which the Brazilian Expeditionary Force played a role in the Invasion of Italy. The Sabaton song Smoking Snakes is about the Brazilian effort during World War Two and especially about three Brazilian soldiers who wouldnt surrender.
