The Legacy Of Brazilian History

In history, what often occurred was that influential individuals who occupied the middle ground during exploration were forgotten. These third-party individuals are called go-betweens and they helped Europeans connect with different cultural groups. The 16th century brought enormous change by the Portuguese to the indigenous groups who lived in Brazil. The colonization of Brazil owes its success to transactional, representational, and physical/biological go-betweens. The book, Go-betweens and the Colonization of Brazil, written by Alida Metcalf explores the roles of these go-betweens and their impact.

Since the 1900s the war of one thousand days has been haunting the colombian people. However, this was the first time in history were the colombian parties wished to rule as one. They recognized that have two parties is a necessary and effective idea and also wished that liberals and conservatives can share power and work together. However there was still a lot to be done in the country, the civil war left many places in very bad shape. Therefore they someone to help them out of the hole they were in so. This is where General Rafael Reyes came into play. General Reyes was later elected president and worked very hard to work the country out of a hole and rebuild most of it from the ground up. Though he made some questionable decisions throughout his time as president, it was a good presidency overall.

His strong leadership was unquestionable and his territory continued to expand as more Latin Americans recognized the falling Spanish social structure. Bolivar strategically used his forces to establish a formidable regime under his rule which he used to give opportunities to the poor. Bolivar founded a congress for his territory and elected leaders from multiple countries to diversify the thought process for the most well-rounded government (“Simón Bolívar.” Encyclopedia of World Biography). Although Bolivar went to extreme measures of violence to earn freedom for Latin America, his methods proved justifiable due to the capable government he left

The elite’s believed in dependability and rivalry They believed in Social Darwinism, Positivism, and the Enlightenment. The elites publicized for changes featuring modernization such as industrialization which was brought upon the cost of the poor. He believes that the abuse by the elite of the minority class and other nations only left the region bankrupt and worn-out from the burden of a progress that wasn’t real at all. Latin America is a region that is extremely wealthy in resources especially natural resources in many different climate

In his attachment to colonial liberation from empire, he pushed the logic of his goals further than many and influenced the political future of South America. His unwavering commitment to Latin America and his visions of unity and liberty have earned him his name as The

When the Latin American revolution first started Bolivar was anything but the person people would think of to join the fight. He was an educated landowner, and had no experience when it came to leading people to war, so using all his knowledge he possessed he recruited someone he deemed fit to fight for the cause, General Miranda, being known for his fights in other revolutions. However, after he was betrayed by Miranda he was forced into this role of General, having no experience for leading men other than his eloquent use of words that made him capable of persuaded the most reluctant man into dying for a cause. He was filled with ideas, but the ones that took to the heart of the people the most were equality and liberty. Even though he was fed with a silver spoon as a child, he believed that everyone

Planning each aspect of the Revolution, he compiled shipments of arms without the knowledge of neither the United States nor Cuban governments. He placed his heart and soul into the organization and preparations of the Revolution without complaint. As the Revolution dawned, he fought with dignity and purpose, serving his followers well into the revolution even after death.

After conquering Brazil, the Portuguese did not know what to do. They were good at conquering, but unlike Spain, they had no intention of colonization. This act made Brazil akin to a broken land, with no governmental power67. Even though they only stayed in Brazil for ten days, Cabral and his men, along with Da Gama later, made significant changes (most were not good) to the native life. The people of Brazil did not need the European intervention.

Hugo Chavez was well known for being a savage and ruthless dictator. He lied and used direct propaganda, aimed at the lower classes to build a majority vote. These methods are similar to the way Napoleon told the animals what they wanted to hear, when they wanted to hear it. Once in a role of authority, they both contradicted themselves by doing things they said they would never do. There are numerous dictators that come to mind when people think of infamous dictators, but Hugo Chavez is probably not one of them. Although, his actions match those of Joseph Stalin, one of the most prominent dictators in world history.

Vargas instituted many policies during his time. Many of which were meant to benefit Brazilian lives. The recently increasing industrialization of Brazil caused the creation of a new middle class. Vargas sought to help the workers because of this new middle class. He created many jobs because of his emphasis on industrialization. He also created minimum wages and gave women new rights in the workplace. Because of all this Vargas was given much appreciation by workers, because no leader before Vargas cared about the lives of any of these people. Even though this was great for the people a lot of these policies came at a cost. According to historian Rex A. Hudson (1998), “Despite Vargas’s pro-labor policies, reforms were never sufficient to raise

As a child develops into an adult there are critical developmental steps that are necessary for a complete and successful transition. The physical transition is the most obvious change, but underneath the thick skin and amongst the complex systems, exists another layer of transitions. Ideas, rationales, ideologies and beliefs all dwell within this layer of each being. It could be said that a nation can also fit this transitional framework. A nation grows in both size (wealth, population, power), and in ideological maturity (emancipation of slaves, civil rights, women’s rights…etc). This constant evolution of ideas and size is the foundation of a successful government. Without change and

He attended a military college and rose through the ranks as a career officer. However, after watching the fascism of Italy that weakened the economy, he “involved himself deeply in the secret military organization, the GOU which was composed of young agitators bend on remodeling Argentina’s political system” (Bell). He worked to reform many policies of job security, child labor laws, and pension for working class. Of course, his works enabled him to manage allegiance from most workers and caused opposition from military and upper class. Although intervention from military and high class people, he was elected the president of Argentina by many

The greatest footballing country on the planet is Brazil. Brazil is a country that wins 80% of its football matches. They have a record five Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) World Cups, eight Confederação Sul-Americana de Futebol (CONMEBOL) Copa Ameríca titles, and three FIFA Confederations Cup titles have created a football giant. How did a country on the periphery like Brazil become so dominant? What were the patterns of continuity and change that created this footballing leviathan? How did this sport transcend individual cultures and cultural regions? What were the significant social, political, and economic ramifications for all of the people involved? Brazil’s dominance in football is an indirect result
