-Jan 1, 1820: Revolt begins
-Apr 26, 1821: King John leaves Brazil to go back to Portugal
-Sep 1, 1821: Pedro was left with the Rio de Janeiro which was just a providence because he was put on provincial subordination by the Portuguese.
-Jan 23, 1822: Brazil wins!! They get a new government headed by José Bonifácio de Andrada e Silva. Pedro is the new governor.

Dom Pedro hired Lord Thomas Cochrane, an admiral who had been thrown out of the British navy, to enforce his authority in Brazil. There was a minor battle but the Portuguese fleet was defeated. The Portuguese recognized Brazil as independent in 1825. Many Brazilians were suspicious of Pedro because he was originally Portuguese, though he was completely against them. They were unhappy with many of his decisions. He resigned from ruling in 1831. Brazil suffered a major military defeat at the hands of the Argentines in 1827.

The Brazilian Revolution assisted with the freedom of Latin America as a whole because it freed one of the many countries in Latin America from foreign rule.
