The success of Pernambuco e São Vicente:

Among these capitanias only two, Pernambuco and São Vicente (to the south of what is now the city of Santos), were very successful, Pernambuco because of sugar and São Vicente because of sugar and cattle raising.

The response of the Portuguese crown to the failure of the other capitanias:

Responding to the general failure of the capitanias, the king, João III, assumed control over them through a governor general with wide political powers. In the capitanias, the governor general was represented by a group of local officials, who fortified the strategic points of the coast and governed the local municipalities according to patterns already established in Portuguese cities. The king also established the capital of the country in Baía. This reorganization of the colony attracted many new colonists to Brazil.

Tomé de Sousa and the Jesuits:

The first governor of Brazil, Tomé de Sousa, came to the colony with a group of Jesuits, who played an important role in the development of the country. They established schools, for example. But they also inspired a strong opposition between the large land owners of the colony, who tried to subjugate the Brazilian Indians.

The Enslavement of Indians and Africans:

The Jesuits tried to christianize the Indians and protect the Indians from slavery. Their method was to concentration them into villages ("aldeias" in Portugese). The crown supported the Jesuits in these activities but allowed the colonists to use Indians captured in legitimate wars as slaves on their large ranches ("fazendas" in Portuguese). These restrictions encouraged the use of African slaves, and trafficking in them intensified in the second half of the Sixteenth Century.
