How is the national motto of Brazil translated from Portuguese?

The flag of Brazil is a blue disc depicting a starry sky (which includes the Southern Cross) spanned by a curved band inscribed with the national motto "Ordem e Progresso" ("Order and Progress"), within a yellow rhombus, on a green field.

The motto Ordem e Progresso is derived from Auguste Comte's motto of positivism: "L'amour pour principe et l'ordre pour base; le progrès pour but" ("Love as a principle and order as the basis; progress as the goal").

Another set of absurd options from Quizzclub's favorite clone. 🙄 How can anyone seriously consider any of the three incorrect options. Why would any country use negative words such as "disorder", "chaos", or "panic" in their national motto? SMH

billyboy915, Of course! The options come from Lilly, making the answer painfully obvious. I can't understand why this was so difficult for 11.5% of players.

Deborah Gabriel, too blurry to read but you could guess at it

William Laughlin, maybe the 11.5% are the clones who set this kind of question.

billyboy915, SMH at you now quit gripping. We get on here to play and talk to each other not to people with issues constantly gripe about a question not general knowledge yet a clue. That I didn't take because I don't know the globes flags and mottos..just this one made sense
