Atlantida: mensário artístico, literário e social para Portugal e Brasil (Atlantis: artistic, literary and social monthly for Portugal and Brazil) was a magazine published in Portugal and Brazil from 1915 to 1920. It resulted from an idealized project from the directors João de Barros and João do Rio, in order to foster the relationship between the two countries. These relationships between "sister nations" occupy a central theme of the magazine during World War I, portrayed as "a suitable moment to create ties between the two states, based on race, traditions and common history, and the notion of Latinity." They also sought to emphasize connections between Portuguese and Brazilian cultures.
