While <i>carioca</i> (from <a href="/wiki/Old_Tupi" class="mw-redirect" title="Old Tupi">Old Tupi</a>) is an older term, first attested in 1502, <i>fluminense</i> was sanctioned in 1783, twenty years after the city had become the capital of the Brazilian colonies, as the official demonym of the Royal Captaincy of Rio de Janeiro and subsequently of the Province of Rio de Janeiro. From 1783 through the <a href="/wiki/Empire_of_Brazil" title="Empire of Brazil">Imperial Regime</a>, <i>carioca</i> remained an unofficial term which other Brazilians used for the inhabitants of the city as well as the province. During the first years of the Brazilian Republic, <i>carioca</i> came to be the name given to those who lived in the city's slums or a pejorative used to refer to the bureaucratic elite of the Federal District. Only when the city lost its status as Federal District (to <a href="/wiki/Bras%C3%ADlia" title="Brasília">Brasília</a>) and became the State of <a href="/wiki/Guanabara_State" class="mw-redirect" title="Guanabara State">Guanabara</a> in 1960 did <i>carioca</i> become an official demonym along with <i>guanabarino</i>. In 1975, Guanabara State was incorporated into Rio de Janeiro State, becoming the present City of Rio de Janeiro. <i>Carioca</i> became the demonym of the city, while <i>fluminense</i> continues to be used for the state as a whole. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rio_de_Janeiro_(state)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg/220px-Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg/330px-Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg/440px-Centro_do_Rio_de_Janeiro00.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3264" data-file-height="2448" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Rio_de_Janeiro" title="Rio de Janeiro">Rio de Janeiro</a>, the capital city of the State of Rio de Janeiro</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hereditary_captainships">Hereditary captainships</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rio_de_Janeiro_(state)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Hereditary captainships"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>European presence in Rio de Janeiro dates back to 1502.

Between 1555 and 1567, the territory was occupied by the French, who intended to install a colony, <a href="/wiki/France_Antarctique" title="France Antarctique">France Antarctique</a>. Aiming to prevent the occupation of the Frenchmen, in March 1565, the city of <a href="/wiki/Rio_de_Janeiro" title="Rio de Janeiro">Rio de Janeiro</a> was established by <a href="/wiki/Est%C3%A1cio_de_S%C3%A1" title="Estácio de Sá">Estácio de Sá</a>. </p><p>In the 17th century, cattle raising and sugar cane cultivation stimulated the city's progress, which was definitively assured when the port started to export gold extracted from <a href="/wiki/Minas_Gerais" title="Minas Gerais">Minas Gerais</a> in the 18th century. In 1763, Rio de Janeiro became the capital of Colonial Brazil. With the flight of the Portuguese royal family from Portugal to Brazil in 1808, the region soon benefited from urban reforms to house the Portuguese. Chief among the promoted changes were the transformation of agencies of public administration and justice, the creation of new churches and hospitals, the foundation of the first bank of the country (the <a href="/wiki/Banco_do_Brasil" title="Banco do Brasil">Bank of Brazil</a>) and the Royal Press, with the Gazette do Rio of Janeiro.

There was no political discussion about the course of the city after it ceased to be the country's capital. "Rio de Janeiro was a job hanger for politicians from all over Brazil. Everyone referred a friend, a relative to take a position in the federal district," explains Marieta de Moraes Ferreira, history professor at <a href="/wiki/UFRJ" class="mw-redirect" title="UFRJ">UFRJ</a>.

Combined with the incitement to favelas, where Brizola said for example that "the <a href="/wiki/Favela" title="Favela">favela</a> is not a problem, the favela is a solution", the capital has deteriorated in a few decades, dragging down the State. The state still maintains itself as the largest oil producer in Brazil (80% of the total), where royalties and special participations brought the state 4.2 billion reais in 2014, when the barrel of oil reached $93.48. But oil revenues, used by the government to repay financing debts, including the payroll of idle workers, fell to 1.6 billion reais. The international price of a barrel fell to USD 50.48 in 2016 and reached a low of USD 28. Petrobras became the target of the largest anti-corruption operation in Brazil, with the participation of governors such as <a href="/wiki/S%C3%A9rgio_Cabral_Filho" title="Sérgio Cabral Filho">Sérgio Cabral Filho</a> and <a href="/wiki/Luiz_Fernando_Pez%C3%A3o" title="Luiz Fernando Pezão">Pezão</a>, linked to leftist <a href="/wiki/Luiz_In%C3%A1cio_Lula_da_Silva" title="Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva">Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva</a>, pushing back investments that were to be at the forefront of the pre-salt exploration. Even when state municipalities received millions of reais in royalties, public spending was used for marginal improvements, for beautification, such as porcelain floors, whale-shaped monuments, without generating revenue or benefit. jobs for the population.

The area around <a href="/wiki/Campos_dos_Goytacazes" title="Campos dos Goytacazes">Campos dos Goytacazes</a> was most affected by the fall of sugar cane: at the beginning of the 20th century, Campos had 27 mills in operation and, throughout the century, it was one of the largest producers in the world. In Brazil, however, as of 2020, only two sugar mills were operating in the city. The state, which harvested about 10 million tonnes in the 1980s, reached only 1 million tonnes in 2017, when it began to recover, harvesting 1.8 million tonnes in the 2019/ 20.
