The Brazilian War was a conflict fought between 1975 and 1987 in the South American country of Brazil and partially in Colombian and Argentine territory. The war was initially fought between the Republicano guerrilla forces and the military regime of General Hugo Savala. Eventually, the Colombians and Argentineans became involved militarily and soon the United States of America entered the conflict as well, with the Savala regime receiving material support from the French Empire, Chile and Japan. In Brazil, the war is known as the Civil War. America suffered its first true loss in a military conflict, suffering upwards 95,000 deaths and over one million soldiers wounded from the war, withdrawing in late 1983 and early 1984.

  • The Brazilian War was a conflict fought between 1975 and 1987 in the South American country of Brazil and partially in Colombian and Argentine territory. The war was initially fought between the Republicano guerrilla forces and the military regime of General Hugo Savala. Eventually, the Colombians and Argentineans became involved militarily and soon the United States of America entered the conflict as well, with the Savala regime receiving material support from the French Empire, Chile and Japan. In Brazil, the war is known as the Civil War. America suffered its first true loss in a military conflict, suffering upwards 95,000 deaths and over one million soldiers wounded from the war, withdrawing in late 1983 and early 1984. The Savala regime was eventually toppled by the resurgent Republicanos in 1987, when French support was withdrawn due to their declining interest in the matter with the Americans gone. As many as seven million Brazilians are believed to have been killed in the conflict, almost twenty million were left homeless and Brazil remains a developing country as a result, although it showed promise in the 21st century. The war also established Colombia as the premier South American power, and a worthy NATO ally and hemispheric economic competitor to the United States, having succeeded where the Americans failed.
