Jânio Quadros
Jânio Quadros was a Brazilian politician who served as the President of Brazil for a brief period in 1961. Known for his populist style and unorthodox policies, he sought to combat corruption and promote reform. His unexpected resignation after only seven months in office created a political vacuum that ultimately led to the ascension of João Goulart, setting the stage for the military coup of 1964.
