Most of the people who migrated to the big cities on the east were people from rural areas from northeast and southeast, not from the Amazon region. But the main reason that the west of Brazil is so empty is because of the lack of fertile soils and arable lands. The Amazon has a very poor soil, the Pantanal has a lot of floods and the Cerrado has an acid soil. Only after the 1970's the Cerrado region started to be ocuppied by big farmers due to the creation of a product that can neutralize the soil's PH and turn it in an arable land to agriculture
When the Portuguese arrived in the 16th century, obviously there were no cars or planes, so going into the far regions of the interior was hard. That's why colonization started at the coast, and the Northeast was the richest region due to sugar cane plantations and important harbors connecting it to Europe, particularly Salvador, the capital, and Recife. In the 18th century the sugar cane economy was in decline due to foreigner competition and the gold mines in the Southeast attracted more people and resources to that region. That was when the capital was moved to Rio and the Southeast became the richest and most populous region, to this day. The west was little by little occupied by expeditions called Bandeiras, which were meant to capture indigenous people to enslave them, grow cattle and guarantee the possession of the land. It remained much less developed than the coast though, and the capital was moved to Brasília (the largest city in the world built on the 20th century) to help integrate and develop that region. Also, there were efforts to industrialize the North too, with tax incentives that created the Manaus free zone. Today Manaus is one of Brazil's largest cities although it's an exception in a very sparsely populated state. Today the Center West and the North remain the most sparsely populated and less populous regions but the integration and development are definetely better. In the end I believe it is better this way, so we demand less from the nature and preserve biodiversity.
Very interesting.. thank you for the inputs.. we need more information like this...

My thoughts in the matter: Not too bad for an anglo-american. Loaded with worn-out, viciously abusive, stereotypical of well known info about a Great country. It would be nice to see a similar video showing how anglo-americans killed over 4 million indiginous peoples. I have travelled in all areas of Brazil that you mentioned except for the Amazon. I saw a totally different Brazil you described. Brazilians that visit the Amazon region always get a malária shot, which conveniently you left out. There are so many beautiful and groomed cities in the interior but as a typical anglo-arrogant trasher., you focused on the shanty-towns. Conclusion: Trashing other countries in America, is the anglo-way of saying how "Great" anglo-america is. Well...I know better.

There is no malaria shot. You're mistaking the yellow flu shot for it.
Nice video, but you forgot to mention that most of Brazilian coast is alongside the Serra do Mar, a 800 m mountain chain that makes it difficult to go into the interior. The northern and northeastern parts of the country also have problems because of the rain forest and semiarid hills, respectively. The Center west region has a poor soil that only recently, with the advances in fertilizants, has become capable of sustaning agriculture
That was a great video, but there's a geographical mistake that gets repeated a couple times. At 1:25, for example, the North, the Midwest, and the Northeast are not accurate. You put 3 regions within the Northeast, and they're not part of it: Tocantins is part of the north, and Goiás and the Federal District are part of the Midwest. The same mistake happens at 3:07, 3:35, 8:52 and 9:55

Seeing the state of Goiás included in the Northeast hurts;
In the future, the Amazon Basin will play the same role as the Mississippi Basin in America
Favorite word of this channel: “Particularly”
Also: the attempt to send people to the Amazon was not in the nineties, but in the seventies, during the dictatorship. The generals used to think that Brazil could lose the region if it was not inhabited
5:40 what beach is that?

I really dont know, but i suspect it is in the Maceio region. Capital of alagoas state, northeast region. The sea is really blue like the caribean
1:25 this map is so cursed
Is interesting you talk that this minority that live in Deep Western Brazil is a rural "minority" of at least 35 millions of people or even more ...

Me in Rondonia:
Great produced content, but it's almost entirely wrong... wrong reasons, wrong maps and wrong info overall. You should've talked to some brazilian folks when doing your research, it's pretty clear this didn't happen
