Campo Grande (lit. Great Field) is the capital of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul in the Center-West region of Brazil. The city is nicknamed Cidade Morena ("Brown City" in Portuguese) after the reddish-brown colour of the region's soil. It has a population of 755,107, according to a 2009 IBGE estimate.^[1]

The region where the city is located was in the past a waypoint for travellers who wanted to go from São Paulo or Minas Gerais to northern Mato Grosso by land. In the early 1900s a railway was completed connecting Campo Grande to Corumbá, on the Bolivian border, and to Bauru, São Paulo. Also in the beginning of the 20th century, the Western Brazilian Army Headquarters was established in Campo Grande, making it an important military center.

With a population growth from 140,000 people in 1970 to 750,000 people in 2008, Campo Grande is the third largest urban center of the Center-West region, and the 23rd largest city in the country. In 1977, the State of Mato Grosso was split into two, and Campo Grande became the capital of the new state of Mato Grosso do Sul, comprising the southern portion of the former state. By that time, Campo Grande had long surpassed the latter's capital city of Cuiabá in population, which is unusual in Brazil, where most capitals are also the states' largest cities.

Today, the city has its own culture, which is a mixture of several ethnic groups, most notably immigrants from the Japanese Island of Okinawa^[2]Afro-Brazilians, Middle-East,^[3] Armenia,^[4] Portugal, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Paraguay.^[5], and white Brazilians from the Brazilian Southern and Southeast Regions, and the indigenous.

Its Campo Grande International Airport connects it to many Brazilian cities and also operates some international flights. The city is home to the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, and three other universities.

History

Morada do Baís.

Campo Grande started as a small village founded in 1877 by farmers José Antônio Pereira and Manoel Vieira de Sousa (a.k.a. Manoel Olivério), who came from Minas Gerais just after the end of the War of the Triple Alliance. They founded the village, known at that time as Santo Antônio de Campo Grande, near the Serra de Maracaju cliffs, at the confluence of two streams named Prosa and Segredo (Portuguese for "conversation" and "secret," respectively), whose courses now coincide with two of the city's most important avenues. In the end of 1877, the founder built the village's first church. The roughly aligned houses formed the first street, known as Rua Velha (Old Street), today Rua 26 de Agosto (26th of August Street). This street ended where today one finds a square in honor of the immigrants that later came to the city.

The city started to develop relatively fast because of its privileged climate and location. These factors drew people from other regions of the country, especially the South, the Southeast and the Northeast regions. The settlement was officially recognized as a municipality by the State Government on August 26, 1899 and renamed Campo Grande.

Geography

Climate

Climate in Campo Grande is highland tropical, semi-humid, hot, and notably seasonal, with a dry winter season from May through September or October. The annual rainfall is around 1,500 millimetres (59 in). January is one of the warmest and rainiest months, with mean highs of 29°C (84.2°F) and lows of 20°C (68.0°F).

July brings on sunny days but cooler temperatures, with mean highs of 25°C (77.0°F) and lows of 14°C (57.2°F). Occasional near-freezing temperatures can occur on winter's coldest nights, but this is somewhat rare.

Vegetation

The vegetation in the city of Campo Grande and Central Brazil is a tropical savanna called "Cerrado" that varies from pure grassland to a nearly closed canopy of medium height trees overlying grass. Since forest is the expected climax vegetation there, several theories have been given to explain the types of grassland present.

The more promising of these involve differences in soil properties, but only a few sites have been used for evaluation. The 1960s marked the beginning of the expansion of large-scale agriculture across the Cerrado. It is one of the largest producers of soy beans in the world.

Economy

Sunset in the city.

Most of the city's active labor is absorbed by the tertiary sector (commerce and services). In spite of that, the primary and secondary sectors, especially agribusiness, still play an important role in the local economy. The farming of bovine livestock supplies local slaughterhouses, which in turn allows Campo Grande to export meat to other states in Brazil and abroad. In addition to food processing and agribusiness, construction and non-metallic mineral processing are important. The area's most important crops are soy, rice and manioc. Recently, sugar cane is becoming important as well. According to IBGE, Campo Grande has a total of 11,657 commercial and 1,300 industrial enterprises.

The city's GDP was R$ 6,903,356,000 (2005).^[6]

Per capita income was R$ 9,207 (2005).^[7]

Education

Campo Grande is the state's most important educational centre.

Portuguese is the official national language, and thus the primary language taught in schools. But English and Spanish are part of the official high school curriculum.

Educational institutions

The city has several universities. The most notable ones are:

• Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) (Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul);
• Universidade Estadual de Mato Grosso do Sul (UEMS) (State University of Mato Grosso do Sul);
• Universidade Católica Dom Bosco (UCDB) (Dom Bosco Catholic University);
• Faculdade Campo Grande (FCG) (Campo Grande College);
• Centro Universitário de Campo Grande (UNAES) (Academic Center of Campo Grande).
• Universidade para Desenvolvimento do Estado e da Regiao do Pantanal (UNIDERP) (Academic Center of Campo Grande).

Transportation

Campo Grande International Airport (CGR).

International Airport

The operation of Campo Grande International Airport is shared with Campo Grande Air Force Base. The airport has two runways. Construction of the main runway, made of concrete, began in 1950 and was finished in 1953. The passenger terminal was concluded in 1964, and in 1967 concrete aprons were built for both military and civilian aircraft. As commercial aviation demand grew, it became necessary to enlarge the civil aircraft apron, which was completed 12 years after its construction. The airport has been administered by Infraero (Aeroportos Brasileiros) since 1975. The airport can receive medium-sized jets such as the Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320, but occasional operations of larger jets have occurred. Operations are mostly domestic, but there are also a few flights to Bolivia and Paraguay.

Railroad

Via Park.

Campo Grande is served by a system of railway transport under administration of the Novoeste company, interconnecting with other cities in the state, in a line that goes from Bauru and São Paulo state through Campo Grande all the way to Corumbá and on to Bolivia. This mode of transport has had significant effects on the transport infrastructure, allowing the export of important products of the state to other centres of production and consumption. Currently, no passenger services are operated, only freight trains.

Highways

Three main federal highways intersect at Campo Grande. BR-262 links Campo Grande to Corumbá and Bolivia to the west, and the Brazilian State of São Paulo to the east. BR-163 connects Campo Grande to Cuiabá and the Amazon region to the north, and to Dourados (which is 120 km from the Paraguayan border) to the south. BR-060 links Campo Grande to the state of Goiás and the national capital city of Brasília to the northeast. There are also several state highways converging there.

Culture

Communications Palace.

Festas Juninas (Saint John's Festival)

Festas Juninas were introduced to Northeastern Brazil by the Portuguese and the custom spread to the rest of the country, including Campo Grande, where festivities take place with the usual fare of typical foods and decoration, rural costumes, music, dancing, a bonfire, and fireworks.

Campo Grande Film Festival

This is a film festival held annually in the months of January and February since 2004. It focuses on independent cinema, presenting Brazilian and foreign films alike, as well as regional and short films.

Football (soccer)

As in all of Brazil, the most popular sport in Campo Grande is football (soccer). The city has a major football stadium, Estádio Universitário Pedro Pedrossian, popularly known as "Morenão" ("the big brown one" in Portuguese, after the city's nickname and the Brazilian custom of often giving names derived of augmentatives to football stadiums). The stadium was opened in 1971 and accommodates up to 45,000 people. There are five other minor stadiums in the city, which occasionally host competition games. The city's main teams are Esporte Clube Comercial and Operário Futebol Clube.

Additionally, there are 45 multisport playing fields in the city, in clubs, cultural associations and public squares.
