In 1724, the ship "Lone Star", coming from Campo Verde with gran-luslandeses refugees from Independence War in Gran-Luslandia, got to Ytakolo'mý port. The ship follow to reach Gobrassanya, but some brasonians decided to stay in Cariocas.

These brasonian people, seen as good and worker people, got some prestige to Cariocas people. They never tried to be involved in politics, but some of the bigger cariocas companies, even the Universidade Nacional (national university), was funded by brasonians.

In 1850, when the national university was created under a national law, the king A'fönso, looking for some international vision, decided about including florescentian and ingerish language learning to students, but, during the time, was clear that Cariocas people was so much accostumed to florescentian than ingerish.

Kata'rýna Ymu'näna, current Cariocas president

Cariocas was a monarchy untill 1950, being ruled by Gön'salo and Nyte'róy dinasties till those days. Really there was not any revolution, but a tragedy. The reason to change was the premature death of the crown prince at the age of 27 with no kids. Still there was some cousins that could follow the monarchy, but the old king (TBD) decided to call elections, changing Cariocas to a new democracy. Since then, there are presidential elections each 4 years.

Ironically, the first president was (TBD), nephew of king (TBD).

(TBD) Currently, there are six parties in Cariocas politics. From left wing, there are União da Terra, Coletivo Nacional e (TBD). In center, there is Avante Carioca. And in right wing, there is Direito da Terra and Monarquistas.

União da Terra (Lands Union) is a left wing party.

Coletivo Nacional (National Colective) is a left wing party.

TBD () is a left wing party.

Avante Carioca (Forward Carioca) is a center party.

Direito da Terra (Lands Right) is a right wing party.

Monarquistas (Monarchists) are a right wing party. They are a bit extremist and ultra-conservative, but not as in other countries. Monarchists, as their own name says, ask for back the country to monarchy times. They also defends the less foreigner influence as possible.


Kata'rýna Ymu'näna, the current president (União da Terra) is the first woman president of Cariocas. Usually people like her government but also get so much critic about spending so much public funds to build Cidade Nova, a planned town in Kata'rÿna island, just east to the capital, Ytakolo'mý, to be the new and modern financial center of the country, while some places along the country still needs basic infrastructure.
