The carioca is not peaceful. The fallacy of this myth reveals itself as we navigate the 75 "memories" that narrate violent events, from the indigenous wars to the 2013 protests.

Conflitos e ditadura Militar
In the 1960s, Brasília was already the seat of the federal administration; Rio de Janeiro, however, remained as the nerve center of national politics. It was there that the troops of general Mourão Filho landed on March 31, 1964, in order to depose president João Goulart, who had spent the last weeks in the city between rallies and political crises. If it was in Rio de Janeiro that the military carried out the coup, it was there also that they received the largest demonstrations of repudiation against the regime. In the 21 years that followed, the city confirmed its importance in the political and social daily life of the country.
