Getúlio Vargas was one of the most controversial and also one of the most honored figures in Brazilian history. His wildly popular administration was the longest political leadership of Brazil. He triumphed as being more than just President, Father to Brazil, and leader of the masses: he was the ultimate statesman, one of a kind that hardly ever lived and worked to achieve everything he wanted with his government in favor of the poor people especially, but Brazil as a whole. He was a good fascist near the beginning of his administration, even Plinio Salgado was a huge supporter, but due to Soviet influence throughout South America, gradually moved left, until his government became pro-communist.
Historians tend to rewrite history, rather than report it, when it comes to information about the Vargas period because it covers an extensive era, with plenty of acts and divisions, his first term was divided in three parts: provisional government between 1930-1934; the constitutional government going until 1937; and the following with the Estado Novo ("New State") until its ending in 1945.
It's a fact that Vargas remained neutral during the early years of WWAC but changed his mind after German U-boats attacked communist controlled Brazilian ships in Brazil's own seashore. He followed the bigger group, fully supporting it but was very close to joining the Germans, often admiring that "Hitler's forces are unstoppable, conquering many territories". Brazil's economy was in huge decline, and during a concerning speech U.S. involvement got heavier when FDR and Rockefeller visited the country. This ultimately led to Vargas sending forces ti Italy to assist the communists.
