 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German-Brazilian - German colonisation in Brazil
During the 19th century, German immigrants in Brazil settled mostly in rural areas, named colony (colônia in Portuguese). These colonies had been created by the Brazilian government, and the lands were distributed between the immigrants. They had to construct their own houses and cultive the land. The immigration started in 1824, when the first group of Germans arrived in Brazil to São Leopoldo, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, after 4 months travelling. They were in total 39 people, being 33 Lutherans and 6 Catho ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - Germanic peoples - Etymology of GermanGermani is thought to be the Celtic name for the Germanic tribes: the tribes themselves never used the word. There is also a Latin adjective germanus (<- germen, seed or offshoot), which has the sense of "related" or "kindred" and whence derives the Portuguese irmão and the Spanish hermano, "brother". If the proper name Germani derives from this word, it may refer to the Roman e ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German American - First German AmericansGerman immigrants made up a substantial population of colonial Pennsylvania, where they often came into political conflict with the Quakers. The first German settlement in Pennsylvania was founded in 1683, although some Germans were already in America in other colonies at that time. Eventually, Germans would constitute about one-third of the population of Pennsylvania at the time of the Revolution.
A large German colony in Virginia called Germanna was located near Culpeper and was founded by two waves of colonists in 1714 and 1717. Ma ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German language - Standard GermanIn German linguistics, only the traditional regional varieties are called dialects, not the different varieties of standard German.
Standard German has originated not as a traditional dialect of a specific region, but as a written language. However, there are places where the traditional regional dialects have been replaced by standard German (especially in major cities of Germany, and to some extent in Vienna).
Standard German differs regionally, especially between German-speaking countries, especially in vocabulary, but also ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German American - German-American InfluenceGermans have contributed to a vast number of areas in American culture and technology. Baron von Steuben, a former Prussian officer, led the reorganization of the U.S. Army during the War for Independence and helped make the victory against British troops possible. The Steinway & Sons piano manufacturing firm was founded by immigrant Heinrich Engelhard Steinweg in 1853. German settlers brought the Christmas tree custom to the United States. The Studebakers built large numbers of wagons used during the Western migration; Studebaker later ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German-Brazilian - LanguageMost German-Brazilians speak only Portuguese nowadays. This is mainly due to the prohibition of German teaching in schools and the publication of German newspapers (together with Italian and Japanese) during World War II, when Brazil broke off relations with Germany (and also with the other Axis Powers Italy and Japan of Axis Powers). However, German is still spoken by over 600,000 Brazilians, as first or second language.

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - Germans - Ethnic nationalismThe reaction evoked in the decades after the Napoleonic Wars was a strong ethnic nationalism that emphasized, and sometimes overemphasized, the cultural bond between Germans. Later alloyed with the high standing and world-wide influence of German science at the end of the 19th century, and to some degree enhanced by Bismarck's military successes and the following 40 years of almost perpetual economic boom (the Gründerzeit), it gave the Germans an impression of cultural supremacy, particularly compared to the Slavs.

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - German-Brazilian - Immigration
When Germanic immigrants first arrived in Brazil starting at the beginning of the 1800's they did not identify themselves so much as a unified German-Brazilian group. However, as time went on this common regional identity did emerge for many different geo-socio-political reasons. Germans immigrated from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Russia. Some of them came from Spanish-speaking Latin American countries.
During World War II, the government of Brazilian dictator Getúlio Vargas initiated a strict program of forced cultural assimilation - Nacionalismo - ...

 |  |  | Germanic: Encyclopedia II - Germanic verb - Types of verbs in GermanicThe Germanic verb system carried two innovations over the previous Indo-European verb system:
Simplification to two tenses: present (also conveying future meaning) and preterite (expressing or describing a past action or condition).
Development of a new way of indicating the preterite and past participle, using a dental suffix.
Later Germanic languages developed further tenses periphrastically, that is, using auxiliary verbs, but the constituent verbs of even the most elaborate periphrastic constructions are still only either in present or preterite ...
