The capital of Brazil is BrasiliaThe Brazilian Capital is Brasília, a planned city build in the 1960's. It was designed by architect Oscar Niemeyer and urbanist Lucio Costa.

Rio de Janeiro was once the capital of brazil then in 1950s the government built a new capital city brasilia locate the two cities why do you think the government moved the capital?

Two main reasons: 1) Strategic reasons: Rio de Janeiro is on the coastline and they wanted to move the capital inland in case of an invasion. It is much easier to defend a capital inland because you have more time to prepare versus a capital that is on the shore. 2) to Develop the heart of Brazil. Until the construction of Brasilia, there wasn't anything there. The central region of Brazil was totally undeveloped as the population lived mostly along the coastline. They figure that if they moved the capital inland, people would move there and develop that area. They were proved right.!
