Municipality

The municipality of Floriano Peixoto (1,972 inhabitants in 2016; 16,843 ha) is located 350 km north-west of Porto Alegre.

Floriano Peixoto was originally known as Coxilha Seca (Dry Hill). The municipality's namesake is Marshal Floriano Peixoto (1839-1895), 2nd President of Brazil (1891-1894). Known as Iron Marshall for his fierce repression of all his opponents - monarchists, federalists, officers, Peixoto maintained the so-called Sword Republic initiated by his predecessor, Deodoro da Fonseca. Supported by the agrarian oligarchy, his dictatorship was eventually defeated by the "coffee barons" of São Paulo and the "milk barons" of Minas Gerais. The presidential election he was forced to organize was won by Prudente de Morais, leader of the Partido Republicano Paulista.
