The Governorate General of Brazil (Governo-Geral do Brasil) was a colonial administration of the Portuguese Empire in present-day Brazil. A governorate was equivalent in status to a viceroyalty, though the title viceroy didn't come into use until the early 18th century. They were ruled by a Governor General who reported to the Crown. The Governor General had direct authority over the constituent royal captaincies, and nominal but ill-defined authority over the donatary captaincies. One captaincy, that of Duarte Coelho in Pernambuco, was exempt by royal decree from the authority of the Governors General.

  • Gubernatorstwo Generalne Brazylii (port. Governo-Geral do Brasil) – jednostka administracyjna portugalskiej Ameryki stworzona w 1548 w celu wzmocnienia i koordynacji działań utworzonych wcześniej kapitanii (1534). Presja Królestwa Francji oraz zagrożenie ze strony rdzennej ludności wymogło na Lizbonie większą dbałość o bezpieczeństwo amerykańskiego terytorium. Powołanie gubernatora generalnego zapewniało możliwość podejmowania kluczowych decyzji przez zorientowanego w miejscowych stosunkach wysokiego rangą urzędnika. (pl)
