Answer:
1. The government of Brazil moved its capital city in 1960. The president, Jucelino Kubitschek, built a city, called Brazilia, to become the country's federal capital instead of Rio de Janeiro, which was the old capital. He did this because the city Rio de Janeiro is very close to the ocean. Jucelino Kubitschek believed that it left the capital vulnerable to marine attacks, for this reason, he decided to move the capital to a more central region of the country, where it would be more protected. The decision influenced people to move on a national level, (international migration.) Ultimately it altered Brazil’s migration patterns.
2. In Brazil, the main reason why Internal migration occurs is because of economic factors. The brazilians migrated from urban areas to more rural areas. Citizens from the poorest states and with the worst living conditions (northeastern states) migrate to the producing centers of the country, which are the southeastern states, mainly São Paulo. In China, the main reason why Internal migration occurs is because of their economic condition. The Chinese migrated from rural areas to more urbanized areas.
