Hello, it is C) Portugal then A) Sugar. Hope it helped!

The correct answers are: A) Portugal; ...... A)Sugar;

The Portuguese were the European colonial power that manged to gain control over the territory of what is now Brazil. They managed to do this by sponsoring expeditions through which they managed to discover new exciting territories. Initially, the Portuguese were creating a lot of sugar cane farmlands, and that was the way they choose for earning big money and become more wealthy.

Once the sugar cane plantations were established, the Portuguese needed a big labor force, especially because the native people were quickly dying out from the newly introduced diseases. They decided to get labor force from Africa, in the form of slaves, so they were buying enslaved Africans, and were also using them as slaves who had the task to work on the sugar cane plantations.
