History
born as a 3ball, adopted by  Kingdom of Portugalball,  Brazilian Empireball and  Brazilball.

He began to be explored for the first time in century XVI, when the  bandeirantes  entered the region in search of gold. His first village was founded in 1711.

Even with the extraction, Kingdom of Portugalball created rigid ways to collect more taxes on minerals, and made it difficult to develop other activities that could guarantee more income to the province, such as food, tobacco, cotton and sugar exports.

The neglect of Kingdom of Portugalball ended up provoking one of the main anti-colonial movements of the eighteenth century: the Inconfidência Mineira. Inspired by the French Revolution of 1789, several intellectuals, religious and landowners met with the intention of ridding the state of  Kingdom of Portugalball 's rule. The spread of republican ideals left the Lusitanian monarchy on alert, mainly with the suspicion of conspiracies that threatened the stability of the government.

In this uprising movement, the leader, Tiradentes,was betrayed and murdered in front of the crowd by hanging on April 21, 1792.

With the embargoes around the ore,Minas Gerais only managed to stabilize its economy with the commercialization of coffee, which gave gas to the massive investment in transportation and the export of the product in other regions.

At the beginning of the 20th century, coffee was the main product of the country, making the state become one of the largest powers (besides São Pauloball).

After the Republic was established,Minas Gerais divided its presidency with São Pauloball.

Personality
Minas Gerais likes his pão de queijo (a bread made of cheese), milk and coffee, especially because of his massive production of these. Like other states, he has his own accent, and is known for summing up a few words, and their pronunciation is casually related or confused with countryside pronunciation.
