How many enthnic groups are in Brazil?

Answer 1

That, my friend, is a complex question. Before the portuguese came, there were a lot of indigenous people from different tribes. Then the portuguese came. The dutch and the french also had some small colonies that later became Brazilian cities. Later, africans from different countries were brought as slaves, mainly from Angola and Mozambique. Then, after slavery was abolished, europeans came looking for jobs as immigrants. This includes portuguese, Italians, Germans, polish, spanish, etc. Years after that, the Japanese, lebanese, Arabs, Korean, and other Asian and middle eastern people came along. Right now, Brazil is a great mixture, a melting pot of all these races, nationalities and ethnicities, which I would say, created the distict and diverse Brazilian people
