| Abstract | In the late 17th century, the connections between Brazil and Angola were signed around the maritime trade, especially in slaves. In this scenario, prestigious men exercised their governance positions on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean seeking to ascend in their careers at the same time to increase their earnings from the prerogatives of occupied posts. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the administrative and commercial relations in the South Atlantic between Brazil and Angola, from the networks of power to Luis Cesar de Meneses, governor of Angola. In addition to his administrative duties, this ruler organized a complex trading company whose main merchandise were African slaves. For its operation he had a large network of individuals under him or associates performing various functions to connect him from Angola to Brazil, as well as Portugal, decreasing distances. |
