Name Change edit

The name is not Pátio do Colégio! It is Pateo do Collegio! The name comes from the archaic version of Portuguese, but it is the name nonetheless. I vote for changing it to the actual name and then refer to it as Pátio do Colégio as the way people usually call it...

Tendentious phrase edit

The phrase “Since its beginnings, the Jesuit action in evangelising the Amerinds clashed with the interests of many settlers” seems tendentious, probably written by a Catholic/Christian ideologue, with no regard to objective, nonideological scholarship. Most secular historians point out how the so-called reduções (another name for the Jeusit Missions in Brazil were part and parcel with the process of dominating the indigenous peoples, enslaving them and stealing their land.
