When did Brazil begin to have a democracy?

Brazil began to establish a democracy in the late 19th century, following the abolition of the monarchy in 1889. The country transitioned to a republic, and a parliamentary system was introduced. However, it wasn't until the 1930s with the rise of Getúlio Vargas that more democratic practices were solidified, culminating in the establishment of a new constitution in 1946 after World War II. Brazil's democracy faced various challenges, including military coups, but has evolved since then, particularly after the end of military rule in 1985.
