>Hohenau was founded on March 14, 1900 by a group of German Brazilians including Wilhelm "Guillermo" Closs who was born in Dois Irmãos (then Baumschneis) on 31 October 1841 and established "Serra Pelada" in Río Grande do Sul before moving to Paraguay.[3][4]neat
>>155538658>Hohenauthats funny because Hohenau is in Germany, Tomas.
Doctor Pedro P. Pena
ok maybe it's time to stop making new Hohenaus
>>155538711no more
>>155538577In Brazil, we call bootleg things Paraguayan
>>155538577>>155538672there were also mennonites originally from 1500s netherlands and germany who due to persecution then moved to royal prussia in poland, then after the partition fled prussia for the volga region of russia and then due to poverty or oppression went to america including paraguay
>German migration to Hohenau increased following World War I.[2] In the 1930s and 1940s, the colony began to attract Polish, Ukrainian, and Russian settlers, and to a lesser degree Belgian and French.i sometimes wonder why they made the decision to migrate to where they did, because surely at some point the US would have had the strongest pull factors after their civil war ended.there's that film The Wages of Fear about some europeans who are stuck in a remote village in south america and want to GTFO. and to me it sounds like they were essentially tricked into emigrating to where they did.
>>155538658>>155538676Are you telling me there are towns with the same name? Better dont look up how many berlins there are in the world, especially usa
>>155538774no one asked pomorzefag
>>155538774Germans are the most persecuted people on the planet>>155538785really obvious answer why not the US. Too many jews
>>155538821>really obvious answer why not the USgerman-americans are frequently the highest cited ancestral origin among whites in the US tho.
>>155538850thats only because english americans call themselves "americans" and not english/british
>>155538785There wasn't that much of a difference in the 19th century for peasants and lumpenproles who just wanted to gtfo their countries no matter what. By the time the US had already confirmed and consolidated themselves as the best destination, roughly the time frame you mentioned, Americans were also getting progressively more restrictive with immigration. They had literacy tests, quotas, stricter demands for certain countries et cetera. Moving to some shithole in Paraguay was easier and I think most people didn't realise how bad it could get there. And I doubt illiterate farmers cared that much either.
>>155538894that makes sense.
>>155538577OK Brazilians, it was fun and all, but it's time go give Paraguay it's land back
>>155538815I asked
The Globohomo FIFA wants to censor us all.
>>155538785It is also a popular place for germans running pedo sites on the darknet to live at. I'm not joking.>>155539520I have a proposal for the great paraguay
>>155548961Reminder that the Stroessner regime was just a paedophilia ring. Not as in "a paedophile was influential" or "some generals were nonces". The entire high command of the military was kidnapping and raping children and the reason why they didn't want to let go of power was that they were scared they'd be tried and punished for kidnapping and raping children. There was no Cold War east vs west spy action going on, it was just nonces.
