The focus on the 700 Mhz is because of standardization accross various regions, especially Africa,  Europe  and Mid East.  This leads to more affordable equipment for all.  Choosing your own "white space" will see you ordering customised equipment which comes at a high cost.
Brazil does some manufacturing and may decide to choose its own path.
