The document provides a historical overview of Brazil from precolonial times to the present. It is divided into several periods:
1) Precolonial period until 1500, 2) Colonial Brazil between 1500-1822 under Portuguese rule, 3) The Empire of Brazil as a constitutional monarchy between 1822-1889, and 4) The Republic from 1889 to the present, except for brief periods of dictatorship from 1930-1934, 1937-1945, and 1964-1985. The document discusses the native peoples, European colonization led by Portugal, the establishment of the empire after independence, and changes to the political system over time.

European Age of Exploration
A World Map from Alberto Cantino, 1502
When we last left Europe, the Islamic trading influences had sparked a revolution of ideas in Italy that began to spread across the cultural centers of European kingdoms. The Italian Renaissance slowly spread across Europe, bringing new innovations in technology, art, music, scientific understanding, mathematics, and medicine. In turn these ideas had sparked the Reformation. However, by the sixteenth century, as the Reformation picked up steam and began spreading radical religious ideas throughout Christendom, already some European kingdoms had begun applying Renaissance inventions to new economic opportunities: Exploration.
The presence of patronage throughout royal courts had encouraged a stability of economies. This stability was called mercantilism – the economic doctrine that assumes government control of foreign trade is the most important element of ensuring prosperity for a given state. The idea is that trading partners need each other to prosper, so trading states are less likely to war with each other over minor details, lest that diminishes trade. The downside to mercantilism is that it can foster an atmosphere of such extreme competition between two or more states that other states end up falling prey to that intense rivalry. This is exactly what happened with cultures in Africa, North America, the Caribbean, and Mesoamerica. But the immediacy of stability caused by mercantilism contributed to the standing atmosphere of intellectual curiosity and increasing centralized governments to lead expeditions outside of European domains.
Portugal
The Portuguese had regained control over the Kingdom of Portugal in 1415, when conquering Christian forces had expelled the occupying Moors. Spain still had some years of fighting left to regain control over the remaining Iberian Peninsula, but Portugal began to set its affairs in order and set its sights on increased trade. Playing a key role in this development was Prince Henry the Navigator.
Prince Henry the Navigator extended Portuguese trade ports throughout the coasts of Africa and into India
Prince Henry was very religious and thought that exploring the African coastline might benefit Portugal in economic glory while benefitting African through conversion from mostly Islamic beliefs to Christian ideas. He established a navigation school to increase the knowledge of sailors. New techniques in ship-building allowed for longer journeys with more gods on board. He also spread the idea that courtly chivalrous honor could be achieved through behaviors off the battle-field. In addition to military glory, he thought, knightly behavior could be earned through intellectual exploration, religious piety and missionary work, and the adventure of journeying to places unknown. In the early 1400s, Portuguese sailors began sailing into ports along the African coast. They were there not as conquerors, but as traders.
And so, Portugues.

Introduction
By the mid-seventeenth century, the geopolitical map of North America had become a patchwork of
imperial designs and ambitions as the Spanish, Dutch, French, and English reinforced their claims to
parts of the land. Uneasiness, punctuated by violent clashes, prevailed in the border zones between the
Europeans’ territorial claims. Meanwhile, still-powerful native peoples waged war to drive the invaders
from the continent. In the Chesapeake Bay and New England colonies, conflicts erupted as the English
pushed against their native neighbors (Figure 3.1).

During the 1500s, Spain expanded its colonial empire to the Philippines in the Far East and to areas in
the Americas that later became the United States. The Spanish dreamed of mountains of gold and silver
and imagined converting thousands of eager Indians to Catholicism. In their vision of colonial society,
everyone would know his or her place. Patriarchy (the rule of men over family, society, and government)
shaped the Spanish colonial world. Women occupied a lower status. In all matters, the Spanish held
themselves to be atop the social pyramid, with native peoples and Africans beneath them. Both Africans
and native peoples, however, contested Spanish claims to dominance. Everywhere the Spanish settled,
they brought devastating diseases, such as smallpox, that led to a horrific loss of life among native peoples.

The traditional periodizationdividesthe wave grabbingBrazil intofourbroadperiods:Precolonial (
until 1500 ) , Colonial Brazil ( between 1500 and 1822 ) , Empire ( 1822 a1889 ) and the Republic (
from 1889 to the present day ) .
There are several theoriesaboutwhowasthefirstEuropeantoreachthe landsthatnow formBrazil.
Among them, highlights the theory that Duarte Pacheco Pereira was between November and
December 14981 2 and the holding was the Spanish Vicente Yanez Pinzon on 26 January 1500.3
But accordingto most historians,the discovererof Brazil wasPedroAlvaresCabral whofirstmade
" officially" the territory on behalf of his country.
Betweenthe sixteenthandnineteenthcenturies,Brazil waspartof the Portuguese colonial empire
using the name of Kingdom of Brazil and having as its capital Salvador . On 7 septiembrede 1822 ,
the country declared independence and became a constitutional monarchy , the Empire of Brazil
and having as its capital Rio de Janeiro. A military coup in 1889 established a republican system .
Since then,Brazil hasbeennominallyademocraticrepublic,exceptforthreeperiodsof dictatorship

The territoryof Brazil has beeninhabitedforat least8000 years.The originsof the firstBrazilians,

territorywere inhabitedbysemi -nomadicIndiantribeswhosubsisted
on a combination of hunting, fishing,gathering and agriculture. The
population density was much lower ; total numbers have been
estimatedatone millionpeople(butrecentarchaeological discoveries,
such as those mentioned above , seem to indicate a much higher
number ) . Although many Brazilian Indians succumbed to the
massacres , disease, and harsh consequences of slavery and forced
displacement , many others were absorbed into the Brazilian

colonial Brazil
1534 : The Brazilian captaincies limited to the west by the line of Tordesillas.
The boundaries between Spain and Portugal were established shortlyafter that in 1492 Spain did
the official " discovery" of the territory now known as America, this first limit was established by
Papal Bull Alejandrina called Inter Caetera , however the Portuguese refused arguing that the ref
wasa pope of Spanishorigin,sothatthe meridianwasrunfurtherwest(iemore territoriesannexed
to Spain ) by the Treaty of Tordesillas , if it was obeyed in the letter by the Portuguese never was
fulfilled in by these facts .
Pedro Alvares Cabral , a Portuguese navigator, is credited as the first European to reach Brazil on
April 22, 1500 , but three months earlier, on January 26, 1500 , the Spanish Navy Vicente Yáñez
Pinzónhadcome to Cape San Augustine andexploredthe coastto the mouth of the AmazonRiver
, where he advanced his cousin Diego de Lepe , whose expedition continued its wake , all before
Cabral.3the countrywasgraduallypopulatedbyPortuguese seekingtoescape poverty,andnobles
who were granted by the Crown colonial privileges . The colonial administration in the next two
3. centurieswasbased on a feudal systeminwhichfavoredindividualsreceivedtitlesof huge blocks
of landcalledcaptaincies;manyof these domainseventuallybecame the current Brazilian states.
1573 : Brazil of " Two States " .
In the firstcenturyafter its Europeandiscovery, the largestexportof
the country,whichgave itsname toBrazil - was" brazilwood",a large
tree ( Caesalpinia echinata ) whose trunk contains a prized red dye ,
which was almost exterminated as a result of overexploitation.
Beginning in the seventeenth century , sugar cane , grown in
plantationscalled"mills"alongthe northeastcoast,becamethe basis
of the Brazilianeconomy,due tothe highdemandforsugarinEurope.
First, the settlers tried to enslave the Indians to work the fields (the
initial exploration of the interior of Brazil was greatly due to
paramilitary adventurers losbandeirantes , who entered the jungle in search of gold and slaves
"Indians" ) . However, the Indianswere unfit as slaves,and so the Portuguese land owners looked
to Africa, from which imported millions of slaves .
1709 : The province of São Paulo to its fullest extent .
Some slavesescapedfromplantationsandtriedto establishindependent
colonies ( brothels ) in remote areas. However, these colonies were
eventually all destroyed by the government and private forces , which in
some cases required long sieges and the use of artillery. So , Africans
became asubstantial sectionof the Brazilianpopulation;andwhenbefore
the end of slavery (1850 ) began to join the Portuguese, as the Indians
above.
Duringthe firsttwocenturiesof the colonial period, attractedbythe vast
natural resources and uninhabited land , other European powers tried to establish colonies in
various parts of the Brazilian territory, in defiance of the papal bull and the Treaty of Tordesillas ,
whichhad dividedthe Newworldintotwoparts,to Portugal and Spain. The Frenchcoloniststried
to settle in Rio de Janeiro today , of 1555th 1567 ( call or France France Antarctique Antarctica ) ,
andthe currentSãoLuís, in1612-1614 ( the call France orFrance équinoxialeEquator) .Little ethnic

troublesome toPortugal.The Dutchprivateersbeganbyplunderingthe coast:

From 1630-1654 , the Dutch settled more permanentlyin the Northeast and
controlled a long stretch of the coast most accessible to Europe , however ,
without penetrating the interior. But the colonists of the Dutch West India
Company in Brazil were in a constant siege despite the presence in Recife of
the great John Maurice of Nassau- Siegen as governor. After several years of
open warfare , the Dutch formally withdrew in 1661.
During the eighteenth century there were some rebellions against the colonial power that were
harshly suppressed , the first of which was laRevuelta Filipe dos Santos in 1720. 's Inconfidência
