Tiradentes explicado com gatos

Tira dente is explained to Gatinhos. Gatinhos lived in a time when Brazil was controlled by Portugal. The Gatinhos of the region of Minas were revolted, because they had to pay very high taxes, and with the threat of terror, the situation was even worse. They joined with other Gatinhos to plan a revolt, which was known as a mining confidence. The idea was to rebel against Portugal and create a free Minas. But one of the Gatinhos told the plan for the authorities, and several Gatinhos were arrested. Only a lot of them were rich, or had influence, and received more benefits. So, Gatinho Tira dente ended up taking the great part of the coup. He was executed in a hard way, as a warning to any one who thought he would revolt. With time, the Gatinhos began to look back and understand. That Gatinho who was punished was precisely the one who defended the people and the freedom. Thus, he was served as a symbol of courage. During the period of the revolution of the Republic, Gatinhos leaders, republicans, wanted a hero who represented the fight against the monarchy and oppression. And they found Tira dente the perfect example. Thus, Gatinho became a national hero.
