Description: Rio de Janeiro, BRAZIL - 15th of November Square - 1913: Rio de Janeiro is the capital of the state of Rio de Janeiro. It is the second-most-populous city in Brazil (after São Paulo) and the sixth-most-populous city in the Americas. Founded in 1565 by the Portuguese, the city was initially the seat of the Captaincy of Rio de Janeiro, a domain of the Portuguese Empire. In 1763, it became the capital of the State of Brazil, a state of the Portuguese Empire. In 1808, when the Portuguese Royal Court moved to Brazil, Rio de Janeiro became the seat of the court of Queen Maria I of Portugal. She subsequently, under the leadership of her son the prince regent John VI of Portugal, raised Brazil to the dignity of a kingdom, within the United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil, and Algarves. Rio remained as the capital of the pluricontinental monarchy until 1822, when the Brazilian War of Independence began. The 15th of November Square is located in the historical center of Rio de Janeiro and is flanked by the Tiradentes Palace, the seat of the Legislative Assembly of Rio de Janeiro and the Imperial Palace. The Praça XV Station is a ferry terminal serving a number of destinations in the city of Rio de Janeiro and Niteroi. This Divided Back Era postcard, mailed in 1913, is in good condition.
