? ? In fact, I immigrated to Brazil in large numbers more than 200 years ago. 200 years ago, Japan had a great migration to Brazil, which lasted intermittently for more than 100 years. 1889, Brazil overthrew the monarchy and established the Republic of * * *, so the newly established Brazil needs development and a lot of cheap labor. At that time, many black people were sold into slavery, but it was not enough. In addition, in 1850, Brazil began to abolish slavery, and the labor force was even more scarce. Brazil hoped to introduce labor.
At that time, Brazil hoped to introduce immigrants from China at that time, but the Qing government thought that China would go to the country, so it was not interested in organizing immigrants, so it refused Brazil's request. However, at that time, Japan intended to immigrate to Brazil. Although the people at the bottom of Japan were unwilling, they were forced to emigrate to Brazil. So the first Japanese immigrants arrived in Brazil.
? Before and after World War II, the Japanese were relatively poor, so there were more immigrants. It was not until the 1950s after the Second World War that Japan's economy began to develop greatly, and the immigration of Japanese nationals to Brazil gradually decreased.
Today, the number of Japanese in Brazil has reached 6.5438+0.5 million, most of which are concentrated in the Greater S? o Paulo area.
It is precisely because of Japanese immigration to Brazil in the past 200 years that there are so many Japanese immigrants in Brazil today.
