Washington Lus Pereira De Sousa

Washington Lus Pereira de Sousa (October 26, 1869 - August 4, 1957) was a Brazilian politician. He was born in Maca, Rio de Janeiro, and moved to So Paulo, where he became a lawyer. Elected governor of So Paulo state in 1922 and president of Brazil in 1926, Pereira de Sousa was the last president of the Brazilian First Republic (see also caf com leite, coronelismo). Facing the 1929 crisis, the president lost almost all his support. He elected his friend Julio Prestes in a fake election as his successor in 1930, but just 3 weeks before the end of his term, Pereira de Sousa was overthrown by a coup d'etat (1930 Revolution) and was succeeded by a military junta.
