About Manoel Urbano

Manoel Urbano is a municipality positioned inside the middle-western location of the Brazilian kingdom of Acre. As of 2010 it become one of the poorest municipalities in Brazil, with a low Human Development Index. The records of European settlement dates to the give up of the 19th century when brothers, Joao Moaco and Ze Moaco, founded the Colocacao Tabocal agreement on the right financial institution of the Purus River. At that time resources and produce had been shipped through the Purus by using boats and smaller vessels from the ports of Belem and Manaus.

One summer time a boat named "Castelo" changed into stranded at some point of the dry season, and was not floated until the following wet season. The residents started to name the place "Castelo". In 1936 the residents asked the state authorities to make the agreement a metropolis named after Manoel Urbano, an Amazonian mestizo from the Manacapuru area who had explored the Purus River. In the territorial division of 31 December 1936 the place become the Castelo district of the Sena Madureira municipality. On 1 March 1963 the municipality of Manoel Urbano changed into separated from Sena Madureira.
