Brazil's Military Dictatorship

Brazil's military dictatorship happened right after Vargas's suicide which caused political instability since it had created a revolving door of leadership. In March 1964 , the military seized power and had installed five presidents for the next 20 years. The military then imposed the Institutional Acts which led to the end of presidential and state elections as well as reduces democracy, and increases the presidents power. It also led to end the of civil rights and tightened censorship. The cause of this was to stop the spreading of communism in Brazil. The military dictatorship ended when the nation was safe from revolution and when the country's povert, social justice, iliteracy, poor healthcare, and regional disparity became worse.
