Brazil's 1932 commemorative program marked four centuries since the establishment of the captaincy system under João III, the administrative framework that divided the Brazilian coastline into hereditary land grants and set the template for colonial governance. The issue appeared in the same year as the Constitutionalist Revolution, when São Paulo rose against Getúlio Vargas — a pointed irony given that the revolt's epicenter was itself one of those original captaincies.
