The region of the Amazon valley, by the Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494, was in possession of the Spanish Crown, the Portuguese expeditionaries, with the purpose of consolidating the region as Portuguese territory. Despite the construction of a large fort, the occupation of territory was marked by early Dutch and English incursions in search of spices, hence the need of the Portuguese to fortify the area. <br> In 1823, the Pará had decided to join the independent Brazil, which had been separated during the colonial period, reporting directly to Lisbon, however the political infighting continued. The most important of them, the Cabanagem in 1835, did decree the independence of the province of Pará.<br> | |||
Cabanagem was a popular and social revolt during the Empire of Brazil, in the Amazon region, was influenced by the French Revolution, mainly due to extreme poverty, hunger and disease that devastated the Amazon at the beginning of the period. The revolt spread from 1835 until January 1840, due to the process of independence of Brazil in 1822, which did not occur immediately in the province due to political irrelevance.<br> Indians, blacks and mestizos in most poor class members, all named cabanos, teamed against the Regent Government and rebelled, in order to increase the importance of the region in Brazil's central Government addressed the issue of poverty of the people of the Amazon as one of the reasons, all lived in mud huts. At the bottom of the rebellion, there has been a mobilization of the Brazilian Empire against the reactionary forces of the province of Grão-Pará in expelling such insurgents who wanted to keep the region as a Portuguese colony or territory independent.<br> | |||
