Why did Brazil fail to become an advanced country?

Both Anglo America(US & Canada) and Latin America(Brazil, Mexico, Cuba, Argentina, Chile etc) had been European colonies and became independent in between the late 18th century and early 19th century. Interestingly enough, Anglo American countries(US & Canada) became advanced countries but Latin American countries did not.

People speculate on this most interesting theory quite often. Arguments that I have heard deal with the northern states of the USA including California in the west uniting with Canada while the south would try to expand into Cuba and the Caribbean while at the same time holding on to Texas.
