Explanation:

A dependent clause is characterized by its dependence over the main clause and inability to express a complete thought. Such clauses begin with a subordinate conjunction or relative pronoun and involve a subject and verb. They function as an adjective clause, adverb clause, or noun clause to provide additional information. While an independent clause possesses the ability to convey a complete thought and stand independently. These clauses also help accomplish the meaning of dependent clauses by being combined with them.

In the given sentence, the dependent clause is 'When they got their independence from Spanish domination ' as it begins with the relative pronoun 'when' and followed by a subject('they') and verb('got') and remain dependent on the principal clause to accomplish its meaning. The independent clause is 'Rio carnival was introduced in Brazil by the Portuguese in 1641' as it conveys a complete and coherent thought after being combined with the dependent clause.
