These aspects, however, were influenced by African and Indigenous American traditions, as well as those from other Western European countries. The numerous Portuguese inheritances include the language, cuisine items such as rice and beans and feijoada, the predominant religion and the colonial architectural styles. Īs consequence of three centuries of colonization by the Portuguese empire, the core of Brazilian culture is derived from the culture of Portugal. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Brazil received a significant number of immigrants, primarily of Portuguese, Italian and Spanish origin, which along with smaller numbers of Germans, Austrians, Arabs, Japanese, Poles and Ukrainians gave a relevant contribution to the formation of regional cultures in Brazil, and thus contributed to its current existence as a plural and racially diverse society. The culture of Brazil is primarily of Western extraction, being derived from Portuguese culture, as well as the cultural mixing that occurred between the Indigenous peoples, Portuguese colonizers and Africans primarily during the brazilian colonial period.
