Talk:South Region, Brazil

HDI
How can its HDI be right if all states comprising it have bigger values?

Region -> .875

RS -> .872

SC -> .921

PR -> .913


 * RS doesn't. Have you checked to see if the RS population vastly outnumbers that of other states? Besides, there might be inaccuracies,maybe they were calculated or researched at different times or something, but it's still very much possible that you're right. - Bjørnar, June 2013 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:C440:20:1116:640C:C042:8CC7:41E7 (talk) 12:18, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

And what about Ukrainians?
There is no reference about the all-Ukrainian cities in Paraná and Santa Catarina! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.40.94.220 (talk) 03:43, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Languages
This part of the article is nonsense:

"and there is fluency of the Spanish language in the population by the proximity to Spanish-speaking countries of Uruguay and Argentina.[citation needed]"

There is no fluency in Spanish in South of Brazil. First, only parts of the South region are close to Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina. Second, what happens is that brazilian, as any portuguese speaker, can undertand spanish more or less (the contrary is not true, spanish speakers don;t understand spoken portuguese in general) but there's no fluency in Spanish at all.

I'm taking this part out of the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.236.84.43 (talk) 13:04, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Belated answer: not necessarily. That said, it doesn't reflect the source (which uses yellow, brown and black, but not red.  Bromley86 (talk) 07:10, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Independence movement?
I heard in places that an independence movement exists or existed in South Brazil. Other articles for different regions (Basque nationalism, Scottish nationlism, etc.) exist, should there not be a mention or a link to an article about this? 73.11.81.111 (talk) 06:23, 30 October 2016 (UTC)


 * As a southerner, I wanted to inform you that the southern independence movement is more of a joke, no one here takes it seriously, unlike Catalonia, the Basque Country, etc. 177.34.72.224 (talk) 09:50, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
