In 1888, Brazil became the last major country in the world to officially abolish 1 slavery, 66 years after breaking away from Portugal to become an independent state.
Black workers were at last free to leave the plantations 2. Many headed south to Rio de Janeiro, now the Brazilian capital.
In Rio, the African rhythms of the former slaves mixed with European musical styles to create the different forms of modern day Samba.
