Is Brazil much different than the rest of South America?
Its blacker.
Around 8- 10 percent pure African
And 40-50 percent mulatto....though half those would deny that
Very few pure Indians but likely 25-30 percent have some Indian blood
Brasil has highest Jap population outside Japan anywhere
Most whites in south....opposite of here though south there is also most conservative culturally
Most pure blacks northeast
Brazil dominates SA....sorta....but Portuguese vibe is looser than Spanish
Brasil is simply more relaxed
Demographically it is a bit like Venezuela
Colombia is more Andean...and more serious organized issues
Brasil shares Latin American problems of the poor being huge percentage.....corruption rife.....crime out of hand
Argentina....Chile and Uruguay are the most civilized and advanced but still lag behind what we were
Myself I prefer Colombians....they are tough.....
Great looking women....strong Castillian culture....many climates....great mountains and agri lands
Beaches etc
But there is always that nagging LA Violencia
Brazil also has traffic that makes Atlanta or LA seem easy
Folks who can commute around from heliport to heliport in Sao Paulo
Its a cool place....man I had a blast there but its fairly ungovernable
It ain’t north America or Pacific tiger or Europe
Second tier and falling
Which is why so many are coming here
Is prefer though to say India
