There is a Brazilian diaspora in Mexico. Although the first Portuguese-speaking immigrants in Mexico were the Portuguese, Brazilians today are the largest Portuguese-speaking community living in the country.

History

There has been a Brazilian presence in Mexico since at least 1895, when the National Census counted 91 residents.[2] As a result of the 1964 Brazilian coup d'état, around one hundred individuals were admitted into Mexico as political refugees.[3]

Brazilians residing in Mexico are mainly businessmen, traders, models, escorts, athletes, students, academics and scientists.[citation needed] There are major Brazilian communities in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Puebla and Ensenada. There is also a Brazilian presence in the Riviera Maya.

Institutions

Founded in 1945 in Mexico City, the main cultural organization is the Centro Cultural Brasil-México.[4] With more than fourteen thousand works, the center houses the largest collection of Brazilian books in Mexico.[4] The collection grew through the donations from the Brazilian community, the Brazilian Embassy and publishers that have participated in the Guadalajara International Book Fair.[4] Other organizations include the Casa do Brasil and Ce.Bras, both also in Mexico City.[citation needed]

Notable individuals

Giovani dos Santos, prominent footballer born to Brazilian father Zizinho. Two of his brothers, Éder and Jonathan, are also footballers.
