Hey gringo, you already head about António Conselheiro from Brazil?

When brazilians was just to becaming a republic, a lawyer called António Vicente Mendes Maciel, well knowed as Conselheiro (that means counselor) seceded from Brazil with a group of people on an abandoned farm called Canudos, with the aim of building their lives with tooth and nail no paying to taxes, they called that place Belo Monte (Beautiful Hill).

The government journal published lies and jokes about they, and when city reach to 20 thousand in population they send the brazilian army to destroy then, Belo Monte fight against brazilian army using hunting guns and destroied then twice. Then, the arm bring cannons and extermined until the last children.

But ideas can't be killed, right? A journalist called Euclides da Cunha followed the battle and later found the Conselheiro's manuscripts and the truth about the battle was exposed to the nation, they was just people trying to be left alone and keep they community, and the cruelty of how these people that thinks they own the brazilians souls was forever included in the praxeology manual of every agorist, the history.

These brazilians tyrants was the slaves ownerships, when the slaves were freed, the Brazilian king was dethroned and these guys took power and exterminated those who did not bow down.

Since this time Brazil government change and changes, but keep active the practice of democide and all the big companies are controlled monopolies guaranteed by their slavery system preventing the poor from growing without getting dirty with them.
