Arrr, me hearties! This yarn be spun by Christopher Krutz and tossed to the briny deep by the Alliance for Citizen Engagement. In the year o' 2009, the swashbucklin' crew known as BRICS set sail, includin’ Brazil, Russia, and a motley crew of countries, all lookin' fer treasure!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round whilst I regale ye with a tale of a merry band o' nations known as BRICS, forged in the fires of economic camaraderie back in the year of our Lord 2009. This motley crew be made up of Brazil, Russia, China, India, South Africa, and a few other scallywags like Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates. A right fine fellowship, ye see!The name BRIC, born from the clever noggin of an esteemed Goldman Sachs swashbuckler by the name of Jim O’Neill in 2001, was later expanded to include the land of South Africa—aye, the more, the merrier on this treasure hunt for economic might!
These fine lands be united in their quest for riches and prosperity, a rambunctious alliance of swaggerin’ economies, each settin’ sail on the same turbulent seas of global trade. With a wink and a nod, they be challengin’ the long-held dominion of the traditional powers, like a crew o’ cutthroats plunderin’ a merchant ship!
So raise yer tankards and join in the ruckus, for BRICS be a ragin’ tempest in the world o' finance, swingin’ their cutlasses and chartin’ their course toward newfound glory upon the high seas of commerce!
