"Yes. 500,000 figure is the minimum number of people of Serb descent in Brazil. I have heard this said by the Brazillian ambassador to Serbia." I believe you, but one thing that makes me wonder is why isn't there many serbian orthodox churches in Brazil, compare this to the US where the population is basically the same. That has always puzzled me. I know that up until the 80s there were severe restrictions on the building of non-catholic churches in Brazil. I think the majority of people from Orthodox countries in Brazil are extreme atheists since there are very few orthodox churches despite the presence of over a million ukrainians, some 300,000 russians & Belarussians, and 100,000 other people from other Orthodox nations.
