AZORES ISLANDS | PORTUGAL | Beautiful Relaxing Inspiring Piano Music | 4K

The Azores are a group of islands in the Atlantic Ocean and are an autonomous region of Portugal. It is an ultra peripheral area of the European Union.
Latest census data reports just over 250,000 residents live on the islands. Estimates are that more than 2,000,000 emigrants and their descendants live off the islands, primarily in the United States, Canada, Brazil, and mainland Europe.
It consists (mainly) of 9 islands:
Corvo
Faial
Flores
Graciosa
Pico
São Jorge (Azores)
São Miguel
Santa Maria
Terceira
With major emigration from the Azores in the early and mid 20th century, many Azoreans have settled in Europe and Brazil, Canada and the US as well as other places around the world. It is not fair to name any one location as the tenth island (although Americans like to claim that the New England areas of New Bedford, Fall River, Provincetown, MA and Providence, R.I. are the 10th island). In any case, the Azorean Diaspora is strong and proud of their history and ancestry. To solve the problem dispersing away from the islands has caused, the Global Village of Azores Nation has sprung up to help unite the Diaspora in the true tenth island, online where thousands of people from and connected to the Azores gather to socialize and share stories from their lives, wherever they may live now.
