        BR Polyglot here, I speak 7 languages, currently adding العربية

        Wrong. Brazil before the republican era had a clear, defined relatively homogeneous luso-afro-native culture fundamented on Catholicism, the portuguese language and the Monarchy.

        Other influences where added, like the biggest Oktoberfest outside of Munich & beeing the favourite destination for Japanese Emmigrants.

          Which are bad things because it fricked up the national ethnic-cultural harmony. What happened in Brazil with the government importing millions of italians, poles, germans, spaniards, lebanese, koreans, japs and shit, is the exact same thing european governments are doing to their nations now.

            I have no idea what demographics were like in early Brazil, but surely there were plenty of blacks, Indians, and those of European descent in the country at the time. Doesn't seem particularly ethnically harmonious.

            Brazil before the republican era, like I said in my post earlier had a clear, defined relatively homogeneous luso-afro-native culture fundamented on Catholicism, the portuguese language and the Monarchy.

            Didn't matter if you were in Amazonas, Pernambuco, São Paulo or Rio Grande do Sul, although the cultural traditions and the accents were slightly different among them, they all spawned from the same triracial portuguese/native american/ african stem, depending on the region one of those elements was usually stronger/standed out more (like ameridians in the north, africans in bahia and iberians in the center-south states) but all the other elements were also present to some degree and in different levels of ''cultural syncretism''.
            Our architecture was also pretty homogeneous from north to south, which also helped when we were in the process of shaping a solid identity, tho now it was all destroyed by the R*public and I can't see us solving the absolute hellish mess it turned the country into.

            I'm mostly venetian, only 1/8 of my blood is colonial brazilian, which is pretty sad tbh you moronic cum guzzling homo. I'm a result of our moronic elites trying to ethnically frick up the country. Also, post nose, israelite.

            So historians must ignore methodology and write a narrative that comforts you?

            Even if you look purely through those lens, what I said still doesn't stop being true, since you mentioned only one dimension of our colonial/imperial era (the economic one). Also you're spouting only the traditional commie college economic point of view, I recommend reading more recent writers on the subject like Jorge Caldeira, who gives a different point of view when compared to the old, academically crystallized moronic commie Caio Prado Junior/Celso Furtado type of historical economic analysis.

            The positivist school of history died out in the 1930s. That's why no one takes monarchists seriously.

            It still undeniably heavily lingers on in the mentality our political classes tho.

            None of that is true. The monarchy was often plagued with separatist movements and D Pedro II was famous for being very anti autocratic, which resulted in a very decentralized state. The church was also against him for his apathy. A centralized Brazilian identity didn't happen until Vargas' New State.

            I'm not talking about the brazilian state, which is artificial bullshit and I can't give enough of a frick about. I'm talking about our organic, spontaneously ''fermented by time'' culture that was created by the mix of those three different worlds that spawned a kind of ''unity in diversity'' as thinkers like Gilberto Freyre and Sergio Buarque de Holanda used to say. If the XX century frickery hadnt happened, Brazil could splinter into a thousand microstates (would be a good thing tbh) we would still have a common shared language, religion, traditions and ancestry, a general feel of ''brasilidade'', same way the greeks, germans and italians had when they were decentralized civilizations. I dont know why you fricktards always confuse state with nation. Also Vargas is a gayúcho manlet homosexual who is slurping semen in the deepest chambers of hell as we speak. The only thing worse than a commie is a varguista (not accusing you of being one, just saying).

            Monarchism died becuase it was taken over by schizos. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrianovism

            Patrianovistas are based, though I disagree with many things. Liberal parlamentarist monarchists are massive homos. Almost as bad as varguistas.

            I said that we lost our identity after the republic and you post an image actually supporting my claims. What an absolute moron.

            Nothing more sad than a Brazilian who thinks he's spiritually Portuguese tbh

            I dont feel spiritually portuguese homosexual. And Im not saying our old identity was basically just an extension of Portugal. The Portuguese element was the most important one, yeah, but we are/were our own specific thing. Nowadays, after our country went to hell the only thing I probably kinda identify with is as a paulista. And specifically the countryside. Paulistanos should get the bullet and SP city should be nuked from orbit.

      Portuguese, Spanish and English are standard for upper middle class Brazilian millenials. The more pretentious ones pick an additional language. I've studied a bit of Italian myself, it's a lot simpler than Portuguese, Spanish or French. More latinamericans should study it.

          >Because I'm interested in what they study and "know" about us
          There's one prominent Brazil institute at the Brown University. That's all. Yes, that's all. Nothing of interest in Europe either. Leslie Bethell attempted a Center of Brazilian Studies in Oxford, but it was shut down soon after he left and absorbed into the Latin American center.

          The academia in the US or Europe doesn't give a shit about Brazil. Does this satisfy you? They only know about the generic concept of "Latin America", which in American vocabulary means Hispano-America. Brazil doesn't exist at all.

          Now you know.

            I actually studied Latin America in college. Shit's fun.

            Granted, most of the focus was on Cold War era proxy warfare and drug cartels.

      there was lot of revolts but not sure they can be counted as civil wars since they were restricted to specific regions
      i think the closest to the country splitting in half like the US did was the 1930 revolution

        US Civil War was also a revolt restricted to a specific region if you think about it.
