French Brazilians (French: Franco-Brésilien; Portuguese: Franco-brasileiro or galo-brasileiro) refers to Brazilian citizens of full or partial French ancestry or persons born in France who reside in Brazil. Between 1850 and 1965 around 100,000 French people immigrated to Brazil.[2] The country received the second largest number of French immigrants to South America after Argentina (239,000). It is estimated that there are around 1 million Brazilians of French descent today.[1]
