Centro-Sul (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˌsẽtɾuˈsuw], South-Central) is a geographic area that encompasses the Southeastern, Southern and Central-West regions of Brazil (see Brazil Regional Division), excluding the north of Minas Gerais, most of Mato Grosso, and parts of Tocantins.
Demographics
[edit]About 135 million Brazilians live in this region. Most industries are concentrated in the area and are responsible for ~75% of the national GDP. In addition, the majority of the population is predominantly of European descent, and more than half of the population self-identifies as White Brazilian.
The region also is characterized by having a high standard of living (HDI of ~0.787, in average), compared to the rest of the country.
The Centro Sul region now has similar development to that of Uruguay and Argentina; the richest South American countries.
