That was because the Brazilians descendants of Germans at that time tried to do stupid things and the Brazilian government needed to take an action. If it wasn't because of this the German language in Brazil would be cooficial today. Still today Brazil is the only country in the American continent where the German language and Germanic dialects are widely spoken. S.Paulo has the largest German college in the world, if you don't know. Never heard about the "Deutsch Schule", today "Colegio Visconde de Porto Seguro?"

I can only speak for my experiences in Chile. I'm a German myself and was blown away by how much remnants of German culture can be found in Chile. Loads of people claiming to be of German descent (their mother tongue being Spanish though) and random stuff like food (you get German Kuchen/'cake' and finding German restaurants that serve very outdated food (like 18hundrets farmer's dishes) are everywhere. While attending Spanish class in Santiago de Chile my teacher told me that there is a lot of reference towards German culture and German ideals of orderliness and punctuality in Chile. And you can feel it in the whole way the country looks and works. She said among other South American countries Chileans are considered the Germans of South America. Pretty interesting experience.

Both sides of my family ended up in Paraguay after ww2. They were ethnic Germans living in Ukraine (then part of the Soviet union) and were treated horribly by the Soviets. All 4 of my great grandfathers were sent to gulags in Siberia 3 of them died there and the reasons were, wanting to keep the land they had lived and worked on for generations, being a pastor at the village church and generally being anti communist. Once ww2 started and the Germans took their village they fled into German occupied Poland where both of my grandfathers were drafted into the German army, both survived the war. After the war the Soviets wanted all their citizens back which included my grandparents and their families and them not wanting to go back for fear of retaliation fled Europe. They ended up in Argentina and then moved into Paraguay because the Paraguay government wanted settlers in some region. They lived there for 10 years before they moved to Canada.

German surnames are still common in southern Brazil and in some cases are the majority. German clerics or of German origin are very influential in the Catholic Church. German schools were abolished during WWII, as were Italian and Japanese, and lessons in Portuguese made mandatory. The first time I went to Paraguay near the Brazilian border, I ended up talking German to get around as I did not speak Spanish or Guarani.

In the city I grew up in South Brazil, literally, everyone had German ancestry, it was a normal thing there and I never really wondered why because it was just the way it was, my grandmother speaks German (Not really, she speaks like a mix of German and Portuguese), but sadly my parents never learned German so I never learned it. It's so cool to see how history affects directly your life, thanks for making a video like this, I always liked history and peoples but I never really thought that I was part of it until I watched this video :)

I'm from Chile. Most of my ancestry is indigenous (aymara and chango from the North) but my great great grandfather was actually a German immigrant in the South of Chile. He was actually the illegitimate father of my great grandmother so we don't know much about him but I think he came over because the Chilean government was sort giving away land and money to people who could develop the southern regions like the araucania. At that point, the spanish and chilean government had sort of abandoned it as they were met with a lot of resistance from Mapuche tribes. Sadly, this influx of Germans and taking the land of the natives has led to many problems nowadays and terrorist groups have formed to take back so called 'mapuche land'. It is a very difficult topic but I don't think it justifies the violence.

Great video! I was born in south Brazil and therefore I can confirm the large contribution of german descendant to our culture - along with Guarani and Kaingang indigenous groups, African, Italian and East European descendants (I myself being a mixture of many of these). I'd just like to point out that Brazilian official Independence Day is Sept 7th 1822, and the first attempt to build a colony of German immigrants dates from 1818, however the first successful colonies were not established until 1824. So information given at 3:50 is technically correct, but I would stress that almost all German immigrants arrived after independence. That said, keep up the terrific work you're doing, I'm really enjoying these videos! ;-)

I love this channel so much! Great content, great presentation, great editing, and all around just a good vibe from it. I learn something from every one of your videos. Keep up the good work mate! (also why don't you have a Patreon?)

Wow excellent backround on the matter and explained with brevity. Keep up the good work and 100000 world class points awarded u.

Dimas Gramz I’m so glad to see this video. I’m from Rio Grande do Sul and my grandfather came from Prussia in the beginning of the last century. We have a very strong German culture down here. Many speak the dialect (Hunsrück) and the traditions are very much alive, like Kerb and Oktober fests, architecture (fachwerk) and so on. There are even those who root for the German soccer team instead of the Brazilian. Yeah, really (even before 2014). The intermixing with Brazilian culture is very slim because the Germans came to isolated places and the distance between German and Portuguese is so much greater than German and English for example. So little is known about us, it makes me happy to see this work you’re doing Masaman. I feel honored. Herzlich Glückwunsch!

wild one.. Yes Britain ended slavery on its own accord thanks to anti slavery campaigners like Thomas Clarkson or William Wilberforce. However this was only made possible because, the millions British slave owners were generously compensated by the British state. Ironically the British slave owners received compensation but the slaves themselves received no compensation whatsoever. Not many people in GB are aware that ordinary citizens in Britain owned slaves for domestic purposes or they received slaves in a will when the original slave owners died.

It's a fact that there were domestic slaves all over Britain owned by ordinary people. Mostly in England and Wales. Britain Internationally paints a picture of innocence in regards to the 200 years of Slavery and the terrible impact Britain had on British colonies. It's a case of "collective denial" and the inhabitants of Britain actually claim the former colonies benefited from being colonised and enslaved by the British. The British "Whitewashed" their history. I have heard estimates that up to 70 million people died in India alone during British rule.

Borussia Germania you are right... the British did have slaves but called them servants.. the only difference between those slaves and the ones brought to the west probably was that they went abused, tortured, raped and killed. I believe some even rose to certain prominent positions in society by making a name for themselves as musicians, hairdressers and dress makers to the wealthy.

I live in a city in the center of Argentina and we have several towns (Hinojo, Colonia Hinojo, Colonia Nievas and Colonia San Miguel) right outside mine that were founded by Volga Germans during the mid to late 1800s. They have yearly festivals that include traditional German dances, music, arts and crafts, food and, of course, beer. But while most of the people that live there have German surnames, most don't speak a word of the language.

Hi Masaman, I follow your channel since a long time, I am a German born in Guatemala. Thanks for the research, it is important no to forget the roots. Viele Grüße aus Stuttgart.

Congratulations on the video! I’m actually Brazilian who lives in the South and have German ancestry. You said it right that they did mix, specially with Italians (I also have Italian ancestry and last name), but a while ago there was an issue with marriages between even descendants of Germans and Italians. Usually the Italians would be catholic and the Germans Protestant, so this was the real issue. You should have commented on a weird thing that happens here: Italian descendants who only speak German as a second language. This is the case with both sides of my family, both of them came (mostly) from Italy but weird enough, both sides would communicate only in German at home. And another interesting fact that was missed was that the 1964 dictatorship forbade everybody of speaking their languages (some people would not even know how to speak Portuguese) and they literally spied on people and punished them for speaking any other language that’s not Portuguese. Even though that happened, the languages continue to be widely spoken here. This whole thing is a very interesting phenomena. Thanks for dedicating your time and presenting this subject! 🙂

There used to be many germans in central asia and russia, where some regions had a german majority, like around the Volga. Kazakstan still has small pockets of them, but many germans (including me and my mother) moved back to germany at the start of the 21st century, because germany invited all those people back to germany. The funny thing is that most of them are culturally closer to russians, so in many places in germany the "russian minority" are actually german.

As an American Navy Brat I lived in Talcahuano (sic) Chile 1961 to 1964 I was 12-13 it was real good for me , I learned Spanish (easy when you are young )and made many friends, I still want to go back there . I was familiar with the Marineros parading but later I was shocked during a Military parade where the Army was the main part of the parade , I had a good view with my father right next to the viewing platform and entire regiments goose stepped by wearing authentic WW2 German uniforms with Stalhiem helmets . I was totally not expecting that my father calmed me down and shortly with the US Ambassador I met and shock hands with Pinochet. The impression I got was that many of the Steel mills were constructed by the Germans and that they were very much involved in the mining of Saltpeter and nitrates this mineral meant a lot to Germany in order to make gunpowder and explosives . Very quickly the Brits shut down any of this from getting to Germany and I think Germany found other ways to make gunpowder and explosives . Many Germans who worked in those industries sat out the War there and helped set out the welcome mat for Germans to come over to Chile after the 2nd WW. During WW1 there was the Battle of Coronell where offshore from Chile the German fleet defeated the British fleet. Afterwards the German fleet paid a visit to Valparaiso Chile where thousands of cheering Germans cheered on the victors The wild celebrations made front page in all the papers at that time . Like many SA Countries the branches of services were jealous of each other and often did not trust each other . When I was there the Chilean Navy had close ties with England and had English made Destroyers . The Chilean Air Force had close ties with the USA and flew the Panther jets that were used in Korea . The Chilean Army seemed to have no one sponsoring them but the Germans prior had set them up making excellent Chilean Mausers and other equipment along with the steel mills . I attended a British School when I was there the only American kid in the school, I was forced every school day to lead everyone with “Rule Britannia” as they raised the Union Jack . We had many German school friends who we would gang up with after soccer games to bully and harass the French school . Awesome good times . Twice we took the US Naval Mission plane (C 47 ?)down to the Patagonia where we landed on dirt strips and met up with some German communities centered around retired industrialists they weren’t expecting us so they went out an shot a deer and a boar to eat . It was a trip to have all these blond haired kids running out to the plane to meet us . A lot of German was spoken which I understood none . We communicated with each other in Spanish . Anyway that was my experience with Germans in Chile !

Some info you may like, Mason. I'm from Rio Grande do Sul (southernmost brazilian state), especifically from Rio Grande that didn't had a considerable flux of german immigrants such as some neighboring cities. Recently, i'm travelling more through the interior of the state because of my work and it came to my attention how common diglossia is in cities like Canguçu, São Lourenço and in the Pelotas's colonies (farming districts). People really talk switching between portuguese and pomeranian as a daily way of communication, and I find that amazing. Another one: There is a menonite colony in Aceguá. I had a friend in university that came from the colony and she not only speeks german fluently, but also tells (as you have) that they came to Brazil from Russia.

Nice video, many thanks

Tho I enjoy this channel's vids I must say they quite ignore the fact Brazil has the most German native speakers outside Europe as well and the 2nd largest German community. It's like they don't want to talk much about Brazil. The same thing happened to the Italian Diaspora video, where they do little when saying anything about Brazil, where Italian is most natively spoken outside Italy, and where there are more Italians in the world outside Italy itself. Waiting for the Nigerian Diaspora tho to see what they're gonna say......
