Question

While statement about the Brazilian Highlands is not true

Answer 1

The Brazilian highlands are not in Brazil

Answer 2

Answer:

It is not true that the first colonists founded the capital in the Brazilian Highlands.

Explanation:

The capital of Brazil, Brasilia, is located in the region of the Brazilian Highlands, but was not founded by the first colonizers of the territory.

The capital's original urban plan, known as "Plano Piloto", was developed by the urban planner and architect Lucio Costa, who, taking advantage of the region's relief, adapted it to the Paranoa lake project, conceived in 1893. The city started to be planned and developed in 1956 by Lucio Costa, by the architect Oscar Niemeyer and by the structural engineer Joaquim Cardozo. Inaugurated on April 21, 1960, by then President Juscelino Kubitschek, Brasilia formally became the third capital of Brazil, after Salvador and Rio de Janeiro. Viewed from above, the main area of the city is often described as having the shape of an airplane, but Lucio Costa's initial proposal was that it resembled the sign of the cross.
