Some studies show us that pombalinas reforms in the Brazil have basically three points: economic, political-administrative, cultural-teaching. In the captaincy of Pernambuco, furthermore theses three aims, the directory was responsible for bring “peace” and “stillness” to the unrefined backwoods that was considered a cattleman region linked with the main colonial mercantile activities, did not enjoy stability and tranquility desired by society and crown.
