Made an 8 day trip to Brazil in Aug., and it was one of the most enjoyable trips in my international travels. I found out that Brazil has the largest population of Italians after Italy itself. I bet you people didn't know that. Not many people do.

I never knew all of these, your question has pulled up some very interesting answers. I would have though the USA had the 2nd largest Italian population in the world.

The 3rd white population in the world
The 2nd largest Portuguese population in the world.
And also one of the largest german, lebanese and syrian communities in the world. A "melting pot", as you like to say.

yes, I am part of that ethnic group. There are many aspects of my italo-brazilian background that are so authentic to its roots that when I mention some of them to other brazilians, they go 'uh?!' Funniest thing is that I never thought that I was part of a distinctive ethnic group there, I just thought that I was as Brazilian as it comes! It was not until I came to live overseas that I learned this from meeting other Brazilians here. They opened my mind tenfold about who I am and where I came from.
