This are the requirements to be considered a castle, in Brazil there's palaces but not castles.
Or why is that is not considered a castle?

I'm agreeing with you, it is a castle under all definitions of the word. I'm just wondering why you keep posting it when it always derails threads into the same bullshit.

- It is not a fortress, since an Emperor lived there.
- It is not a palace, since it is fortified.
The word for "fortified palace where emperors used to live" is "castle".

I like how well built the first and the last one look.

Meh, I prefer Kalmars castle.
Built in the 1100's, used as one of the most important fortifications in the north.
In the 1600's the castle was fitted with 287 big cannons in all directions.
It was considered the crown of Sweden's defenses. Today perfectly preserved and thousands of tourists visit every day.

Another pic. The only way in through the 5-7 meter high walls. A tunnel of death for any enemy.
