>>211697006The history of the city of Manaus runs parallel to the history of Brazil, over 355 years of existence, compared to the country's more than 500 years. The process of European occupation began in 1540, when explorer Francisco de Orellana arrived from Peru, intending to go to Spain.
This city is extremely old because it was an exit point to the Atlantic via the river.
