Sabinada
The Sabinada (1837–1838) was a revolt by military officer Francisco Sabino that occurred in Brazil's Bahia province between 6 November 1837 and 16 March 1838. The rebels proposed the existence of a Bahian Republic of a transitory nature until Emperor Dom Pedro II reached the age of majority. Calling for the abolition of slavery and the redistribution of land, they fought against the government for one year until their capital of Salvador was conquered.
