D. Its peaceful blending of native and European peoples.
The given answer is B. To check if it is correct, we need to think about Brazil's colonial history and how it influenced its culture.

3. What forces combined to institute a Brazilian republic in 1888?
Options:
A. Powerful coffee planters and abolitionists.
B. Owners of sugar and coffee plantations.
