You'd think it'd be in Saudi Arabia...

Anyway, I wonder if ther e are a bunch of gangs controlling the place.

Probably, yes!

Pernambuco is a north's state of Brazil, is not a rich one, and contain part of the Brazillian Backwoods, something like our own Desert, where the great part of the poor and hungry Brazilians lives. Our current president is from there.

Jacurutu is name of a South-American Owl in tupi, a old language from the natives.

As you know, guys, I live in Rio de Janeiro, one of the most populated city in South America, and it is very very distant from Pernambuco (Brazil is big!).

Take a look how the Brazilian backwoods is:

I hope I have helped about it!
