Armenian Brazilians

Armenian Brazilians (Բրազիլահայեր; armeno-brasileiro, armênio-brasileiro) are Brazilian persons who are fully, partially, or predominantly of Armenian descent, or Armenian immigrants in Brazil.

Migration history
Armenian immigrants in Brazil gathered mostly in and around the city of São Paulo, where there are churches, cultural centers, and even a metro station named "Armênia". The Armenian community maintains a strong presence in the city, albeit not in the country as a whole.
