Engelbert Dollfuss vs Joao Goulart

In March 1933, Dollfuss used a parliamentary procedural crisis to suspend the National Council and rule by emergency decree. He banned the Communist Party, the Nazi Party, and eventually the Social Democratic Party, establishing a one-party authoritarian state known as the Austrofascist regime.

In February 1934, Dollfuss ordered the military and police to attack Social Democratic Party strongholds in Vienna and other cities. The conflict lasted several days, resulting in hundreds of deaths and the outlawing of the Social Democratic Party and its paramilitary organization, the Republikanischer Schutzbund.

On July 25, 1934, Austrian Nazis, with support from Germany, stormed the Federal Chancellery in Vienna. Dollfuss was shot and died from his wounds. The coup attempt failed to seize power, but Dollfuss's death marked a major escalation in Nazi pressure on Austria.

João Goulart was elected vice president of Brazil in 1960 on the ticket of the Brazilian Labor Party (PTB), alongside President Jânio Quadros. He assumed office on January 31, 1961.

After Quadros resigned in August 1961, Goulart assumed the presidency on September 7, 1961, following a political crisis and a compromise that established a parliamentary system. He was the first president from the PTB.

Goulart proposed a series of 'Basic Reforms' (Reformas de Base) in 1963, including land reform, tax reform, educational reform, and the nationalization of foreign-owned utilities. These proposals faced strong opposition from conservative sectors and the military.

Goulart was overthrown by a military coup on April 1, 1964, which established a military dictatorship that lasted until 1985. He fled to Uruguay and later to Argentina, where he lived in exile until his death.
