Answer: "Carnival, which is celebrated across Brazil, combines samba – music and dance which grew out of Brazil's black neighborhoods – and the Catholic tradition of celebrating the run-up to Lent brought by Portuguese colonialists." "Even many of Brazil's Catholic saints are said to have African heritage."

Explanation: Hope this helps :)
