History of Brasilia

Rio de Janeiro was Brazil’s center of government until 1960, when it was replaced by Brasilia. Originally, Brasilia was constructed as a place for government authorities and staff to live, but during the construction period, Brazilians from all around the country migrated to the area. Many of the migrants, who were referred to as candangos, were supposed to leave Brasilia once the city was finished, but that did not happen. A majority of the migrants did not have the money to leave, and others wanted to stay for a chance at a better life. Small villages were built in order to accommodate the migrants that did not leave Brasilia. More and more migrants began to flock to Brasilia due to the opportunities; therefore, the villages grew, eventually becoming the Cidades Satelies (Satellite cities) of Brasilia.

Fun Fact: Even though Brasilia is Brazil’s capital city, this location is not actually a city; it is an administrative district of the Federal District of Brazil.
