Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Brazilian cities during the colonial period were indeed relatively small and had limited influence compared to the larger, more developed urban centers in Europe and some other parts of the Americas. They primarily served as administrative and religious centers rather than major hubs of manufacturing or trade. The Laws of the Indies were Spanish colonial laws that did not apply to Portuguese colonies like Brazil. Brazilian cities did not grow more rapidly than those in Spanish colonies, and their economies were more focused on exporting raw materials than manufacturing goods.
