Minas Geraes, spelled Minas Gerais in modern sources, was an encouraçado (English: battleship) built for the Brazilian Navy. Named in honor of the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, the ship was laid down in April 1907 as the lead ship of her class, making the country the third country to have a dreadnought under construction. She was completed in 1908. Although frequently in poor condition, the major warships constructed under Brazil's 1904 building program Minas Geraes, her sister São Paulo, the cruisers Bahia and Rio Grande do Sul, and most of the ten Pará-class destroyers formed the core of the Brazilian Navy from their completion in 1908 1910 until the beginning of the Second World War. Not long after her commissioning, Minas Geraes was featured in the 19 March 1910 edition of Scientific American, which described her as 'the last word in heavy battleship design and the [.] most powerfully armed warship afloat'. Seven months later, she was the focal point of the Revolta de Chibata (English: Revolt of the Whip). The mutiny spread from Minas Geraes to other ships in the Navy, including the recently commissioned São Paulo.
