The General Assembly (Portuguese: Assembleia Geral) was the bicameral parliament of the Empire of Brazil, as determined by the Imperial Constitution in its Article 14. The assembly consisted of the Chamber of Deputies (lower house) and the Senate (upper house).
Once the General Assembly was convened, the first preparatory session of the Chamber of Deputies took place on 29 April 1826, and the opening session of the first legislature (joint meeting of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate) took place on 6 May 1826.
Members of the Chamber of Deputies, called deputados, were indirectly elected to a three-year term, while the senators had lifelong tenures.
Furthermore, the princes of the Imperial House were entitled to a seat in this House as soon as they turned 25 years old. By this criterion, Princess Isabel was Brazil's first senator.

The Trem da Vale (English: Vale's Train) is a tourist railway line that connects the cities of Mariana and Ouro Preto in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. It was opened on 5 May 2006 due to a partnership between Vale S.A., Ferrovia Centro-Atlântica and the Brazilian Railway Preservation Association (ABPF).
The Trem da Vale Heritage Education Program involves a set of cultural actions aimed at valuing the cultural and natural heritage of the historic Brazilian cities of Ouro Preto and Mariana. Between these cities, the program put the traditional Maria-Fumaça steam locomotive back into circulation, revitalizing 18 kilometers of rail at the Ouro Preto, Mariana, Vitorino Dias and Passagem de Mariana stations. The Trem da Vale tourist tour runs at pre-determined times and days along the Minas Gerais railway section, showing the landscapes and regional culture through various environments that make up the historical-cultural and educational complex of the municipalities of Ouro Preto and Mariana.
From 2006 to 2008, the program served around 370,000 people, including public school students and local communities with courses, workshops and events, as well as tourists who traveled by train and visited the stations' cultural spaces.
