Brazilian Mexicans

There is a Brazilian diaspora in Mexico. Although the first Portuguese-speaking immigrants in Mexico were the Portuguese, Brazilians today are the largest Portuguese-speaking community living in the country, numbering around 45,000 individuals.

History
There has been a Brazilian presence in Mexico since at least 1895, when the National Census counted 91 residents. As a result of the 1964 Brazilian coup d'état, around one hundred individuals were admitted into Mexico as political refugees.

Institutions
Founded in 1945 in Mexico City, the main cultural organization is the Centro Cultural Brasil-México. With more than fourteen thousand works, the center houses the largest collection of Brazilian books in Mexico. The collection grew through the donations from the Brazilian community, the Brazilian Embassy and publishers that have participated in the Guadalajara International Book Fair.
