List of Governors of Distrito Federal

List of Governors of Distrito Federal

This is a list of Governors of the Brazilian Federal District.

The current Federal District is coterminous with Brasília, in the interior of the country. Prior to 1960, the Federal District corresponded to the municipality of Rio de Janeiro; when the federal capital was relocated to Brasília, the former federal district became the state of Guanabara, which after 15 years of autonomy, was absorbed into the state of Rio de Janeiro in 1975.
