Maceió (Mah-say-oh) is the capital and the largest city of the coastal state Alagoas, Brazil.
The city is located between Mundaú Lake and the Atlantic Ocean. The city proper has a total population of 922,458 inhabitants (year 2006) living under a tropical climate with average temperature of 25°C (77°F). Around 1,180,000 people live in its Metropolitan Region of Maceió (year 2005). The city began in an old sugar mill and plantation complex around the 19th century. Its development started with the arrival of ships taking wood from Jaraguá bay. With the installation of the sugar mills, Maceió started to export sugar, then tobacco, coconut, leather, and some spices. Prosperity made it possible for the settlement to become a village on December 5, 1815. Thanks to its continued growth, Maceió became the capital of the Alagoas Province on December 9, 1839. Maceió is also a port city and due to its port development about 200 years ago it changed from a village into a city. The new Zumbi dos Palmares International Airport connects Maceió with many Brazilian cities and also operates some international flights.
