==History==
To Brazilians, the main historical distinctions of the city are the driving off an attack by [[Lampião]] and his [[Social bandit|gang of "social bandits"]] (see [[Cangaço]]) that plundered entire towns in the ''[[sertão]]'' during the 1920s and 1930s; and also the fact that the city freed its slaves five years before the [[Lei Áurea]] abolished slavery in the rest of the country in 1888. Mossoró was also the first city to give women the right to vote in Brazil (Professor Celina Guimarães Viana cast the first vote in 1928), sparking a movement among other cities and states in Brazil that culminated in the [[Women's suffrage#The Americas|official recognition]] of [[women's suffrage]] by the national government in 1934.
