Brazilian Ukrainians
Ukrainian Brazilians (; , ''Ukrainski brazyltsi'') are Brazilian citizens born in Ukraine, or Brazilians of Ukrainian descent who remain connected, in some degree, to Ukrainian culture. In 1994, 400,000 people of Ukrainian descent lived in Brazil, 80% (or approximately 350,000) of whom lived in a compact region approximately in size (an area slightly smaller than Trinidad and Tobago), in the hilly south central part of the state of Paraná in southern Brazil.Oksana Boruszenko and Rev. Danyil Kozlinsky (1994).
