Before the arrival of the Europeans, the lands that now constitute Brazil were occupied, fought over and settled by diverse tribes.
Thus, the History of Brazil begins with the indigenous people in Brazil.
The Portuguese arrived to the land that would become Brazil on April 22, 1500, commanded by Pedro Álvares Cabral a Portuguese explorer on his way to India under the sponsorship of the Kingdom of Portugal and the support of the Catholic Church.
From the 16th to the early 19th century, Brazil was created and expanded as a colony, kingdom and an integral part of the Portuguese Empire.
Brazil was briefly named "Land of the Holy Cross" by Portuguese explorers and crusaders before being named "Land of Brazil" by the Brazilian-Portuguese settlers and merchants dealing with Brazilwood.
The country's borders were only finalized in the early 20th century - with most of the expansion occurring before the independence, resulting in the largest contiguous territory in the Americas.

On September 7, 1822, the Portuguese Monarchy declared Brazil's independence from Portugal and so the Kingdom of Brazil became the Empire of Brazil.
The country became a presidential republic in 1889 following a military coup d'état.
An authoritarian military junta came to power in 1964 and ruled until 1985, after which civilian governance and democracy resumed.
Brazil is as a democratic federal republic.
