Colonial-era economic influences and the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance led to the settlement of English merchants and others in Brazil. After Brazilian independence, Britain was Brazil's main commercial partner; Britain financed part of the Brazil's industrialization, building railroads, including the São Paulo Railway (SPR).[citation needed]

In the 1920 Republican Census, there were 9,637,000 "Englishmen" in Brazil (probably, all British citizens were counted as "Englishmen"). The states with the majority of English origin were:

1. São Paulo (2,198,000),
2. Federal District - which was the Rio de Janeiro city \- (2,057,000),
3. Minas Gerais (1,709,000), and
4. Pernambuco (1,123,000).[2]

Brazilian cities settled by the English during the same period, include:

1. Rio de Janeiro city (2,057),
2. São Paulo (1,212),
3. Recife (980),
4. Santos (555), and
5. Niterói (459).[3]

## Cultural influence[edit]

One of their major contributions at the cultural level was the establishment of several football clubs, including São Paulo Athletic Club and Fluminense Football Club.[citation needed]
