History

On 14 May 1501, on his third voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, Amerigo Vespucci reached Rio de Janeiro Bay and Rio de la Plata.[1]

By 1719, the Templars had a safehouse located in Rio de Janeiro, which was used to store blood vials containing the blood of members of their Order, including Woodes Rogers and Benjamin Hornigold.[2]

During the Seven Years' War, the Templar Shay Cormac sent ships filled with spies to the city in order to help further Templar influence.[3] As the Templars established a foothold over the city, the requested another shipload of spies.[4]
