"Fidel Castro loved dairy so much that he invested in trying to breed a cow that could survive in the climate of Cuba and still produce a lot of milk. He failed over and over for years until one day a cow that was exactly to his specifications. She produced obscene, record breaking amounts of milk even for a regular cow and could live in Cuba’s sweltering climate. There were regular updates on her health in the Cuban national newspaper and he loved her so much that when she died he erected a huge marble statue of her in her honor"

"Arigato" is Japanese for "Thank you."
"Obrigado" is Portuguese for "Thank you."
Portugal was the first European country to really make meaningful contact with Japan, which was the easternmost heavily-populated country/region in Asia. Portugal happens to be the westernmost country in Europe.
The two words, Arigato and Obrigado, are linguistically completely unrelated.
Those two very similar words developed in completely isolated contexts on opposite ends of the world's largest landmass, and they mean the same thing."
The Portuguese were just trying to colonize Japan and failed.
