Most Portuguese settled in Brazil.
Joao, in our area in New England we have a pretty large Portuguese population group.
Most are descendants of immigrants that came to work in the textile mills during the industrial revolution.
A few generations back, these families still mainly spoke Portuguese, but most (including some good friends of ours) have lost this talent.
Great people for debates every four years when the World Cup comes around.
We have sizable modern Portuguese speaking populations from the Azores and Cape Verde Islands too.
