Brazil is a multiracial country.
Immigrants from Italy, Portugal, Germany, Poland and Japan, among others, and the African influence, brought in during the slavery period, all played an important role in the development of Brazil. These elements are now completely integrated into the Brazilian society and have enriched its culture. For those intending to travel locally, Brazil offers a wide variety of tropical and sub-tropical climates, topography, vegetation, and fauna. Brazilians are very hospitable. The native language spoken is Portuguese.
