Brazil became a republic in 1889. The President's annual message has since summarized executive branch activities. These documents are accessible by year and, where available, by the message's table of contents. Please take a minute to look at the Readme file to familiarize yourself with the database before accessing the Presidential Messages. Each federal ministry issues an annual report that recounts its activities.
Access is by ministry, year, and, where available, table of contents.
The Almanak was published annually by the Brazilian Royal Court between 1844 and 1889. It listed officials of the Court and its Ministries. Also included were sections on provincial officials for Rio de Janeiro and a supplement including a variety of information such as legislation, census data and commerical advertising. This set will be added to this database in 1998. All images and indexing will be available by May of 1999.
