Immigrants from around the world constitute what Brazil is today – a country where all races are present. This immigration helped create the Brazil we know today.
In my first column (January 2015), I wrote about the reason for the existence of the Portuguese language in Brazil. Now I would like to talk about the origin of the Brazilian people, which helps explain in some ways my name, Udo Fiorini (German mixed with Italian).
I believe you are aware that Brazil was discovered by the Portuguese in 1500. It was quite a discovery, because there were native people already living here.
