There's also a Brazilian city that is made up of Confederate refugees from the U.S. It's literally called "Americana".

I had never heard of this. Thanks for sharing. It looks like around 20k confederates went down there and there are 260k descendants today. Fascinating stuff. I was curious why we don't hear much about these people today. Then I saw this picture:

Looks like they race mixed themselves into oblivion.
