Alagoas is a small state in northeastern Brazil lying between the states of Pernambuco and Sergipe; touching the state of Bahia along a part of its southwestern border. The southern border of Alagoas is defined by the Rio São Francisco (São Francisco River). From the lagoons came the name of the state, which, in the 16th century, was invaded by Portuguese and French searching for pau-brazil (a type of wood). The Dutch first arrived in the neighboring state of Pernambuco and ended up conquering the territory. Throughout history, Alagoas have always maintained a good relationship with Pernambuco. The two states are so close that tourists cannot leave one without visiting the other. The capital, Maceió, which borders the Rio Macaió, is famous for its beaches and seafood and is Alagoas' most popular tourist attraction.
