We fought on both of them. Also managed to force the US to build our steel heavy industry which nowadays is the most competitive steel of the world

>What are latin america countries doing in ww1 and ww2?
nuffin,being neutral
>Are they even being effected?
a good opportunity for selling our shit and welcome those poor jewish immigrants.

The world wars ultimately broke Argentina since their economy was so extensively tied into supplying meat and grain to the British Empire. When that dwindled, Argentina went down with it.

>during ww1
In turmoil
>during ww2
In turmoil, but not because of that war.

Ironic considering that Vargas implemented fascism in Brazil and generally admired Germany/Italy.

We also saved some thousands of Jews

>>75765093
Yeap, above everything he was a nationalist just like those regimes, so he was willing to enter the war for the side that gave us the highest bid, and in the end it was the US who gave us CSN (National Siderurgic Company) boosting our industrialization project

>>75765093
It wasn't exactly fascism but pretty close to it, indeed. Brazilian history is full of ironies like that though

>>75765128
I take it also that membership in the UN postwar required cooperation with the Allies?

Selling our labor to the americans

>WW1
We tried to bribe the Mexicans into attacking the US by promising Texas to them.

>>75765120
But the holocaustic never happened

>>75765161
There were also race riots in SoCal after Navy sailors accused Mexican migrant laborers of doing their girlfriends.

>>75764846
it is a pretty interesting story actually. brazil was hesitating between germany vs the allies so that steel deal helped them make the right decision. the us even had a back-up plan to invade them if they remained loyal to germany. the allies feared that germans could launch an attack on south america from north africa and brazilian north east would have been the most likely target that needed to be protected. google plan rubber. we also helped them patrol their waters to protected them against the german submarines.

We could have occupied Austria, but our stupid government refused it

>"General (Mark) Clark (allied commander in Italy) was sent to Austria as chief of occupation and, knowing the Brazilians, he thought it would be interesting to have them", reveals the historian
>The researcher reports that diplomat Vasco Leitão da Cunha heard in Rome that British general Harold Alexander would have said: "The Brazilian is a beautiful soldier. I regret to know that they want to go home and not go to Austria."

>tfw the Brazilian is a beautiful soldier

paraguay was commie, el salvador was pretty fascist for the most part, they were preparing an invasian through guatamela and mexico to conquer the US and Canada

oh god imagine how shitty the world would be

>>75765093
After V-E Day, Chiang Kai-Shek made a radio broadcast announcing that "With Germany defeated, the whole weight of the civilized world comes crashing down on Japan." which is also amusing considering his pro-German sympathies and that KMT ideology drew a lot from Mussolini's corporate state.

>>75765458
there were probably no chimping out favelados back then

>>75765093
germany sank some boats in the northeastern coast

Germans tried to make an alliance with us

>>75765584
Some conspiracy theorists think the Zimmerman Telegram was forged by the British Foreign Office to get the US to declare war on Germany.

>>75765606
They're wrong.
I was there.

Mexico also fought against the Japanese un Luzon, Philippines.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/201st_Fighter_Squadron_(Mexico)

>>75765606
The evidence for this is the idea that Germany couldn't possibly be serious about allying with a cunt in a state of anarchy and which they had absolutely no way of delivering armaments to.

>>75765606
It could be, anyways it sounds really stupid that germans would risk such an important telegram and ask a country in ruins to invade the USA.

>>75765491
>KMT ideology drew a lot from Mussolini's corporate state.
i have no idea where do you get this information from
China was just using a method which also be used in most European power

>>75765093
As has been said, Vargas sold himself as a prostitute.

Here is a documentary subtitled on what they did with immigrants, mainly Germans who could be arrested for the simple fact of speaking German.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WMUGVvRdQA

Brazil has kept 31 concentration camps to arrest citizens of Japan, Italy and Germany.

In Uruguay we got rich by selling everyhing the allies and nazi soldiers ate during the war.

Of course the US had to put a series of dictatorships here that stole everything and sent us to the gutter.

>>75764846
Brazilians sent a couple troops and fucked more nazis in a week than the allies did in years.

>>75765921
As I said, >>75764641

Uruguay and Argentina's economies were linked to Britain's colonial empire, so when it went down, they went down with it.

>>75765723
these old ladies sound so hurt. do they feel brazilian after what happened to them?

Having a fiesta because we were happy for your deaths, but send some planes just to pretend we were fighting.

>>75765953
Yes, partially, there are far more complicated things about it.

>>75765953
Even today, most of their business and trade are conducted with Europe and China since the US has no need for their principle products.

>>75765953
Not at all though, you're just washing your hands.


>>75766025
I know for a fact our products are of better quality than any of their equivalent in the US. You're just protectionists

I don't forget the 2000's mad cows either, I bet the british had to do with that too right?.

>>75765995
I do not think so. Seeing that the mother tongue is dying among her people, realizing the loss of traditions and customs among her grandchildren must be horrible. The immigrants suffered a lot in this land to realize that the reward is the degradation of their culture. Speakers of Italian, German, Japanese, Polish, Ukrainian and other smaller groups are fading. This is the culmination of multiculturalism, the degradation of all cultures.

>>75766085
lol kill yourself

>>75766085
multiculturalism should actually be preserving their languages and culture instead of destroying them my friend. You have been too much on /pol/

>>75766085
The world was a lot more multicultural 100 years ago, unique regional/national cultures are disappearing in the wake of creeping globalization/Americanization.

>>75766113
>>75766114
I have expressed myself wrongly, I mean multiculturalism in only one nation.

>>75766173
>I mean multiculturalism in only one nation.
Still wrong, if anything they have embraced brazilian culture which is the opposite of multiculturalism

>>75765723
>Brazil has kept 31 concentration camps to arrest citizens of Japan, Italy and Germany.
Oh fuck off

>>75766085
Honestly you're ridiculous, I bet you say all that bullshit but don't really give a fuck about the culture of all the recent immigrants in Europe (and mind you, I'm not saying you should).
There are still plenty of rural communities that alienate and exclude themselves from the rest of the country, and I've they are disappearing it's only their own damn fault. And honestly, as someone whose parents moved from one of those communities to the cities, I couldn't give a fuck about most of them, as they're incredibly ignorant and racists, and think they're superior to everyone.

>>75766286
>and I've they're disappearing
I meant "if they're disappearing", my bad

>>75766286
>>75766303

Is this really a thing? People from inside these communities actually think this?

I've been curious about this subject since I have been told it, but could never confirm, so that means I could never really form an opinion around it.

>>75765995
Of course they do. And it honestly wasn't as bad as the autistic anon is trying to make it look like. People should stop being a bunch of crybabies

>>75766337
I'm talking about old people from very rural communities, mostly in the South. They're honestly irrelevant anyway, so who cares.

People from Blumenau, Pomerode and medium-sized cities like that aren't like that. And yes, they do consider themselves Brazilians, even more so the younger ones.

>>75766416

Seems legit then. I've been recieving visits from southern people and I never actually got that impression, which is why I asked.

Thanks for the clarification, anon. God bless.
