Bandeirante State

Bandeirante State (in Portuguese: Estado bandeirante) is a popular and historical name for the Brazilian state of São Paulo.[1][2] It began to be mentioned in the 1900s, with mentions in periodicals such as A Republica, in 1905,[3] and Jornal do Commercio, in 1909.[4] It is also mentioned in the anthem of the municipalities of Barrinha, Mairiporã,[5] Mirandópolis[6] and Santa Albertina.[7]

São Paulo became known as the place from which Bandeiras[8][9] set out to explore the interior of South America, being the birthplace of several Bandeirantes of significant importance to the history of Brazil, such as Anhangüera, discoverer of Goiás,[10] Domingos Jorge Velho, one of the conquerors of Piauí,[11] and many others who stood out in the founding of Brazilian towns and capitals, such as Belo Horizonte,[12] Curitiba,[13] Cuiabá[14] and Florianópolis.[15]
