Question: How many of those who started the great migration of the Slavs live in the colonial holding of Portugal on the continent home to the Courantyne River?

<P0-S0> People of German origin are found in various places around the globe. <P0-S1> United States is home to approximately 50 million German Americans or one third of the German diaspora, making it the largest centre of German-descended people outside Germany. <P0-S2> Brazil is the second largest with 5 million people claiming German ancestry. <P0-S3> Other significant centres are Canada, Argentina, South Africa and France each accounting for at least 1 million. <P0-S4> While the exact number of German-descended people is difficult to calculate, the available data makes it safe to claim the number is exceeding 100 million people. <SEP> <P1-S0> after the spanish in the 16th century, the first permanent european settlers of north carolina were english colonists who migrated south from virginia. <P1-S1> the latter had grown rapidly and land was less available. <P1-S2> nathaniel batts was documented as one of the first of these virginian migrants. <P1-S3> he settled south of the chowan river and east of the great dismal swamp in 1655. by 1663, this northeastern area of the province of carolina, known as the albemarle settlements, was undergoing full-scale english settlement. <P1-S4> during the same period, the english monarch charles ii gave the province to the lords proprietors, a group of noblemen who had helped restore charles to the throne in 1660. the new province of "carolina" was named in honor and memory of king charles i (latin: carolus). <P1-S5> in 1712, north carolina became a separate colony. <P1-S6> except for the earl granville holdings, it became a royal colony seventeen years later. <P1-S7> a large revolt happened in the state in 1711 known as cary's rebellion. <SEP> <P2-S0> According to eastern homeland theory, prior to becoming known to the Roman world, Slavic-speaking tribes were part of the many multi-ethnic confederacies of Eurasia – such as the Sarmatian, Hun and Gothic empires. <P2-S1> The Slavs emerged from obscurity when the westward movement of Germans in the 5th and 6th centuries CE (thought to be in conjunction with the movement of peoples from Siberia and Eastern Europe: Huns, and later Avars and Bulgars) started the great migration of the Slavs, who settled the lands abandoned by Germanic tribes fleeing the Huns and their allies: westward into the country between the Oder and the Elbe-Saale line; southward into Bohemia, Moravia, much of present-day Austria, the Pannonian plain and the Balkans; and northward along the upper Dnieper river. <P2-S2> Perhaps some Slavs migrated with the movement of the Vandals to Iberia and north Africa. <SEP> <P3-S0> Although the royal family returned to Portugal in 1821, the interlude led to a growing desire for independence amongst Brazilians. <P3-S1> In 1822, the son of Dom João VI, then prince - regent Dom Pedro I, proclaimed the independence of Brazil on September 7, 1822, and was crowned Emperor of the new Empire of Brazil. <P3-S2> Unlike the Spanish colonies of South America, Brazil's independence was achieved without significant bloodshed. <SEP> <P4-S0> during the age of discovery in the 15th and 16th centuries, portugal and spain pioneered european exploration of the globe, and in the process established large overseas empires. <P4-S1> envious of the great wealth these empires generated, england, france, and the netherlands began to establish colonies and trade networks of their own in the americas and asia. <P4-S2> a series of wars in the 17th and 18th centuries with the netherlands and france left england (and then, following union between england and scotland in 1707, great britain) the dominant colonial power in north america and india. <SEP> <P5-S0> The Courantyne/Corentyne/Corantijn River is a river in northern South America in Suriname. <P5-S1> It is the longest river in the country.
