I don't know about Brazil, but American toilets leave a lot to be desired too, in Australia plungers aren't common like they seem to be in America (apologies for BuzzFeed source): https://www.buzzfeed.com/bradesposito/youre-talkin-shit

As a Central/Northern European I noticed the same thing when spending a few months in North America. Particularly the "low-flow" toilets in the US & Canada which seem to be considered an improvement(?) have a ludicrously small outflow.

I noticed my Australian roommate uses a ass-load (sorry) more toilet paper than I do. Since he's moved in we'll go through a 12 pack in less than 2 months. By myself that would take me at least a year to kill.
