	Tiradentes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Joaquim JosÃ© da Silva Xavier, known as Tiradentes ( 1746 â“ 1792), was part of the Brazilian seditious movement known as the InconfidÃªncia Mineira.
		Born in SÃ£o JoÃ£o del Rei, Minas Gerais, Tiradentes was adopted by his godfather and moved to Vila Rica (now Ouro Preto) after the deaths of his parents (mother in 1755; father in 1757).
		As Tiradentes was not a member of the local aristocracy, he was systematically overlooked for promotion and never rose above the rank of alferes (2nd lieutenant).

	Brazilian Historic characters - Tiradentes
		Tiradentes was born in 1746, in a village then called Sao Jose (today the city is called Tiradentes), state of Minas Gerais; today, the flag of Minas brings the inscription "Libertas quae sera tamem", latin for "Liberty, even if late", which was the motto of the libertarian movement led by Tiradentes.
		Tiradentes soon noticed the exploitation to which Brazilians were submitted; he was seeing how much gold was leaving Brazil, and he knew how valuable it was.
		The plan of Tiradentes was, in a day of derrama (when the sentiment of revolt of Brazilians would be stronger), to take the streets of Vila Rica and proclaim the Brazilian Republic.
