The termbrasiguaio (Portuguese) orbrasiguayo (Spanish) is associated to individuals holding ties with Brazil and Paraguay. It is commonly used by members within and outside this group when referring toBrazilian migrants inParaguay and their descendants, and Brazilians who lived for a long period in Paraguay and then returned to Paraguay.[1] In Paraguay, it is attributed to Braziliand and their descendants living in the Southeastern Paraguayan departments ofCanindeyú andAlto Paraná, which border withBrazil.[2] Most of them emigrated from Brazil in the 1960s stimulated by the Paraguayan government seeking to develop its bordering region with Brazil through agricultural production.[3]
As of 2001, there are about 455,000 Brasiguaios as of 2001[update] living in Paraguay, or about one-tenth of Paraguay's population.
In some border zones, Brasiguayos and their descendants are more than 90% of the population andPortuguese is widely spoken.[4] InSan Alberto de Mbaracayú city, approximately 80% of its 23,000 inhabitants are of Brazilian ancestry. The origins of Brasiguaios are said to be mostly from the three states of theSouth Region of Brazil in proximity to Paraguay,Paraná,Santa Catarina, andRio Grande do Sul. Most Brasiguayos are ethnicallyWhite and ofGerman,Italian andPolish descent.[5][6][7]
