The beginning of Brazil as a country.

Salvador, capital of the state of Bahia, was the first major port and the capital of colonial Brazil for almost two centuries. Forte de Santo Antônio da Barra was the first Fort of Brazil and its lighthouse (Farol da Barra) was “the very first lighthouse on the American continent.” (International Association of Marina Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities – IALA).
