Best Answer

A Portuguese explorer by the name of Pedro Alvares Cabral obtained control of Brazil for Portugal in 1500. During the 1530s, colonists settled on the coast and began building sugar plantations, which became the basis for wealth in Portugal. This eventually helped them gain complete control of the country.

Portugal started to colonize Brazil probably in the 1520's or a little bit earlier, but in force in the 1530's.
