Alagoas

Brazil

Alagoas connects with 4815 places across 18 topics through 97 Bunkabop connections, with history, nature, and government as the dominant threads. The state shares many connections with neighboring Pernambuco, a relationship rooted in colonial boundary-making: Alagoas was carved from the southern portion of the Captaincy of Pernambuco and gained autonomy in 1817. The Moxotó River continues to mark the border between the two states, its lower portion forming the boundary between Pernambuco to the west and Alagoas to the east.
