Brazil in 1580 comprises the area from Pernambuco in the north to São Vicente in the south.
With Spanish assistance hereafter, the Portuguese expand north to Paraíba, then west through Ceara and Maranhão against the natives and the French, until they find Belem in 1616.
Beginning in 1621, these possessions are divided into the state of Maranhão (embracing the crown captaincies of Ceara, Maranhão, and Para) and the state of Brazil, centering on Salvador, Bahía.
