  2. Best case scenario for Republican Brazil

    Around a year ago, I made a thread asking for the best case scenario for Japan after WW2. Now, I want to ask a similar question, only this time on Brazil. More specifically, I want to ask for the best case scenario for Brazil after the deposition of the Empire in 1889, Since a lot of threads...

  4. King Dom Miguel I of Brazil - An Absolutist Brazil Wank
    Threadmarks: The Younger Brother

    Prince Pedro of Portugal was a willful young man, and his early life in Rio de Janeiro, away from the big battles happening in Europe, gave rise to a strong desire to take part in great events. When the Pernambucan Revolution came in 1817, defying the rule of this father in the Americans, the...
  5. Nuclear power in Brazil without the dictatorship?

    Like it says on the tin. Brazil's existing nuclear power plants, Angra I and II, were built during the last dictatorship, with help and technology from West Germany. Would a Brazil that stays democratic in the 1960s and 70s invest in a project such as this, and if so, would it be ahead or behind...
  6. Rui Barbosa becomes president of Brazil in 1910?

    The 1910 presidential election was the first in Brazil's Old Republic era to look like a competitive race, in spite of all the fraud. It pitted two political heavyweights of the time: Hermes da Fonseca, former minister of war and supported by Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul, and Ruy Barbosa...

    AHC: Bigger Brazilian population?

    With a POD in 1820, how can we have the population of Brazil, by 2020, be bigger than OTL (212 million) and what PODs are necessary to achieve this? @Vinization @Gukpard @Guilherme Loureiro @unprincipled peter @Galba Otho Vitelius
  8. Henrique Lott becomes president of Brazil in 1960?

    For a brief time, from November 25 to December 5 1959, former governor of São Paulo Jânio Quadros (an incredibly erratic character, to put it mildly) gave up on his campaign for the upcoming presidential race, which was scheduled to happen next year, before backtracking on his decision. Backed...
  9. A Brazilian victory at the Cisplatine War?

    The Cisplatine War was a two and a half year long (December 1825 to August 1828) conflict which pitted the Empire of Brazil on one side and the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata on the other, the latter of whom also enjoyed the support of a group rebels known as the Thirty-Three Orientals...

    AHQ: Iberian Union's impact on the Portuguese Empire

    When it comes to the Iberian Union, there's much discussion about how it impacted both the countries of Portugal and Spain. However, what's often overlooked is how the Iberian Union impacted the colonial empire of Portugal. Specifically, was the Iberian Union a net good or was it negative when...
  11. AHC/WI: Brazilian United Americas

    Whenever someone thinks of a united North and South America, they (understandably) think immediately of it being led by the US. But what if it was united by their more southern neighbor? Starting in 1822, how can we get a Brazilian-led unified Americas by the year 2200 (just thought giving 400...
  12. Best case scenario for Brazil after a failed 1964 coup?

    Say that the coup against João Goulart fails for whatever reason - say more generals remain loyal, or the putchists control fewer important states (Carlos Lacerda, Magalhães Pinto, Ademar de Barros and Ildo Meneghetti all won their races by thin margins) - and the president remains in office...
  13. Brazil's Old Republic was overthrown in 1924?

    In July 5, 1924, a group of military rebels (the Tenentes) led by Isidoro Dias Lopes led a revolt in São Paulo against the Brazilian Old Republic and its president, Artur Bernardes. However, although they eventually took the city after a few days, by the time their control of it was secured they...

    ------------------ Part 1: A Divided City Throughout practicaly all of Porto Alegre's republican history, most of its inhabitants had very little say in how the capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul was run.

    DBAHC: Single Hegemon In The Americas

    Otl, the american continent has almost as complicated a balance of power as european empires do. Naturally such a balance means there are some Great Powers like the US, Brazil, California, and La Plata.

    DBAHC: Screw Brazil

    OTL, Brazil is easily the most successful former colony in the americas. With Napoleonic victory in Europe, Latin America received constant immigration from Italy, Spain, and Portugal while the homelands were in crisis. But only Brazil got a strong, competent government, royal treasury, and...

    Best POD To Ensure Napoleonic Victory?

    There are many points when Napoleon had, or was close to winning out over British, Prussian, and Russian resolve. But I want it to stick. What is the latest point to keep the First French Empire on top of the world? The biggest issue I'm having is I want to write a TL and have Brazil become the...

    Napoleonic Victory=Brazil Wank?

    Now i think we all know that the Portuguese royal family ran to Brazil after Napoleon took the kingdom's homeland. But if he were to win, and thus Portugal remains at best a french client state, could we see a Brazil wank? With no Portugal to return to, the kingdom wouldn't be divided and Pedro...

    WI: Brazilian-American War?

    I'm writing this thread as i feel like "US-pliant Brazil" is way too common a trope in AH circles. I'm aiming for a conflict in a 20th century level of tech, but i've out this in Before 1900 due to the PoD. So, assume that Dom Pedro II's two legitimate sons survive beyond the 1840's, into...

    WI: Brazil's southern border is behind the Paraguay and Paraná rivers

    So, suppose that Brazil, in one of its wars with Argentina in the 19th century, gets lucky and acquires the regions of Paraguay, Misiones, Corrientes, Entre-Ríos, and Uruguay, forming a border all the way down from the Paraguay to the Paraná rivers. Here's a map for reference: So, what does...
