Brazil
Many people today see Brazil's diverse racial and cultural foreground as one of the nation's strengths. Throughout its development as a nation, the intermixing of several different cultures has given this country it own unique blend. Race and the mixing of race has played a key role in this development. The widely held belief that Brazil was less able to develop due to its mixed races spurred many discussions and debate. The purpose of this essay is to explore the cultural roots of Brazil by examining the streams of intermingling culture and their sometimes violent clashes of customs and laws.
The quick and swift rise of Brazilian national identity followed a familiar form common to many other developmental histories of European colonial territories. During Brazil's colonial period (1500 -- 1822), individuals born in Brazil were subject to rules and taxes that were enforced and created in the homeland of Portugal. Brazil was not yet in charge of its own government as most of the top positions in colonial government were held by those born back in Europe. The relative lack of influence over their own sovereignty gave energy to the creation of a distinct distinctiveness among native-born Brazilians, even though it consisted of many differing elements.
During this time, slavery was very popular amongst the colonial powers in Europe and Brazil was not exempt from this system. Nearly all, but certainly most of the wealth and power, colonial Brazil had was ruled over by a small white elite of Portuguese natives who owned farming plantations worked by Indian and African slaves. Some Portuguese were more tolerant and humane. These people along with free people of color held the middle slots in colonial society; they were worker foremen, artisans, shopkeepers, low-level government bureaucrats, and members of militias.
