Cândido Ferreira de Abreu, the owner of this colony, decided to change its name to Prudentópolis, in honor to Brazilian president Prudente de Morais. In 1895, to settle this region, 1,500 Ukrainian families, about 8,000 people, came to Prudentópolis. This immigration continued until the 1920s.[7]

Most of the immigrants were from the Ternopil region of Ukraine, and today the Ukrainian city Ternopil is sister city of Prudentópolis.[8]
