Salvador, Bahia
Salvador (English: ''Savior'') is a Brazilian municipality and capital city of the state of Bahia. Situated in the Zona da Mata in the Northeast Region of Brazil, Salvador is recognized throughout the country and internationally for its cuisine, music and architecture.

Suppression Of The Society Of Jesus
The suppression of the Jesuits was the removal of all members of the Society of Jesus from most of the countries of Western Europe and their colonies beginning in 1759, and the abolishment of the order by the Holy See in 1773. The Jesuits were serially expelled from the Portuguese Empire (1759), France (1764), the Two Sicilies, Malta, Parma, the Spanish Empire (1767) and Austria, and Hungary (1782). This timeline was influenced by political manoeuvrings both in Rome and within each country involved. The papacy reluctantly acceded to the anti-Jesuit demands of various Catholic kingdoms while providing minimal theological justification for the suppressions. Historians identify multiple factors causing the suppression. The Jesuits, who were not above getting involved in politics, were distrusted for their closeness to the pope and his power in the religious and political affairs of independent nations. In France, it was a combination of many influences, from Jansenism to free-thou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Revolution Of The Ganhadores
The Revolution of the Ganhadores, also known as the 1857 African porters' strike, was a labor strike that involved African porters, known as ''ganhadores'', in the Brazilian city of Salvador, Bahia. The strike began following the passage of a city ordinance that changed the way the ''ganhadores'' operated in the city. The strike ended in a partial victory for the strikers, as the city council replaced the ordinance with another one that did away with some of the more unpopular provisions. During the 1800s, ''ganhadores'' were crucial to the transportation of goods through Salvador. The trade was dominated by both enslaved and free Africans who worked together in self-governing groups known as ''cantos''. While the ''ganhadores'' were given a great deal of freedom to move through the city, fears of a slave revolt, such as the Malê revolt of 1835, prompted the government to try to exert more control over the ''ganhadores''. In 1836, the provincial government of Bahia enacted a law t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
