Abstract
Brazil's uneven regional development is characterized by the strong existence of differences deriving from specific structures concerning the conformation of each region due to the form Brazil was colonized years ago. In Northeastern Brazil, also due to the consistent drought that affects the region. The regional and social inequality can be observed by comparing each region's GNP (Gross National Product). According to IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), the South and Southeast regions of Brazil represented, in 2010, approximately 72% of Brazil's total GNP, with only seven federated states. On the other hand, the Northeast region concentrated, with nine federated states, only 13,5%.
