PARANÁ 

In our cold plateau, of pine tree, field and mate, it is integrated, as an initiate reality in 1871, the Polish colonization. The Polish colony is part of the landscape with your typical presentation. With the church, the cemetery to the side and it marries of the vicar. The Polish colonist adapted. They had problems as always they exist and it would be impossible that did not exist in the migration of a way very different from the one of origin. For being Paraná, of three States of the South of Brazil, the area that it attracted, in larger number, the Polish immigrant, when this State dawned and they expanded, sketching and making to guess the future reality, still distant, the Polish colony planted a mark in the evolution of this earth. One cannot think Paraná without the Polish immigrant's illustration and the contributions that he brought. There was, like this, an identification of the Polish with Paraná. This State thought to have the monopoly of that immigration. In fact, Paraná was owner of the Polish. We can say here: the Polish is ours. Confirming Gilberto Freyre's thesis, of the regional assimilation, as road for the national assimilation, created the specific type of the polono-paranaense, as integral of the Brazilian cultural continent. Unlike the rest of the country, here the Polish last name does not sound foreigner. In spite of your frequent orthography difficulty, the last name of Polish origin is a version that is understood and of the which the Luso-Brazilian paranaenses became used to and they evaluate how thing being genuinely paranaense. (Bento Munhoz da Rocha Netto / ex-governor of Paraná). 

THE COLONIES

The governments from São Paulo and of the new Province of Paraná they had last century some experiences badly happened in the colonization of Paraná to some groups of immigrants. 

These were the first colonies implanted in the area of Paraná:

For these colonies immigrants Algerian, French, Swiss, German was brought, English and Irish. The immigrants attracted soon were dispersed and many went back to your origin nations. Only starting from 1871, with the arrival of the Polish to Curitiba, the colonization process with immigrants began to give result.

The first, the consciously to bet in the Polish was the president of Province, Adolfo Lamenha Lins (1875-1877) that offered the following conditions to the immigrants:

The government made them to come for your bill, financing the trip of Europe to Brazil and it sustained them until that could stay with the fruits of the earth.

Measured and demarcated the lots of culture lands in the surroundings of the city, traced the highways, they surrenders a lot to each family, with a temporary house, regularly built.

To the ten year-old larger colonists, they feels as aid of establishment twenty thousand réis. Each family receives more 20 thousand réis for the purchase of utensils and seeds.

As soon as the colonist settles down it is used in the construction of highways of the nucleus, receiving necessary tool and it interrupts the feeding then due to the government.

In each nucleus, they are founded a school and a chapel is built, except for those that spare this construction for very close of the city. Besides the work in the highways of the nucleus, they finds the colonist, service in the general public works.

Established by this form, they are the colonists you given to your own initiative and only forced to pay your debt of the regulation of 1867, to the government.

This debt, for that respects to the expenses done from the arrival of the colonist this province, it did not still exceed to 500 thousand réis for each family of 5 people, medium term, included the price of the lands.

However, this debt was never collected to the immigrants.
