Francisco Félix de Souza (4 October 1754 – 8 May 1849) was a Brazilian slave trader who was deeply influential in the regional politics of pre-colonial West Africa (namely, current-day Nigeria, Benin, Ghana and Togo). He founded Afro-Brazilian communities in areas that are now part of those countries, and went on to become the "chachá" of Ouidah (the slave trading hub for the region), a title that conferred no official powers but commanded local respect in the Kingdom of Dahomey, where, after being jailed by King Adandozan of Dahomey, he helped Ghezo ascend the throne in a coup d'état. He became chacha to the new king, a curious phrase that has been explained as originating from his saying "(...) já, já.", a Portuguese phrase meaning something will be done right away.

  • فرانسيسكو فيليكس دي سوزا (4 أكتوبر 1754 - 8 مايو 1849) هو كان تاجر رقيق برتغالي برازيلي كان له تأثير كبير في سياسيات الإقليمية لغرب أفريقيا ما قبل الاستعمار. (ar)
  • Francisco Félix de Souza (Salvador, le 4 octobre 1754 — Ouidah, Bénin, le 8 mai 1849) fut un important trafiquant d'esclaves brésilien devenu Chacha de l'actuelle ville de Ouidah au Bénin. C'est un personnage historique controversé, tant en raison de la puissance et de la richesse qu'il avait obtenues que pour ses origines (il fut probablement un mulâtre ou un métis) qui restent indéfinies.

  • Франси́ску Фе́ликс ди Со́за (порт. Francisco Félix de Sousa, 4 октября 1754 (?), Салвадор, вице-королевство Бразилия — 8 мая 1849, Уида, королевство Дагомея) — бразильский работорговец в португальском подданстве, действовавший в широком масштабе в африканском королевстве Дагомея. Крайне противоречивая личность: ди Соза нажил огромное состояние на торговле африканскими рабами, сам будучи, по-видимому, мулатом. Несмотря на то, что был набожным католиком, практиковал африканские культы вуду и даже основал свой собственный, поддерживаемый его потомками. По мнению ряда современных исследователей, сыграл выдающуюся роль в налаживании связей культур Запада и коренных народов Африки. (ru)
  • Francisco Félix de Sousa (Salvador, 4 de outubro de 1754 — Uidá, Benim, 4/8 de maio de 1849) foi o maior traficante de escravos brasileiro e Chachá da atual cidade de Uidá no Benim. É uma figura histórica controversa, tanto pelo poder e riqueza que obteve, quanto pelas suas origens, não se sabe ao certo qual a sua etnia, podendo ser provavelmente branco ou mulato claro, algo que se intui por meio das poucas descrições da época sobre a sua pessoa.
