Carlos de Campos [ˈkaʁluz dʒi ˈkɐ̃pus] (6 August 1866 – 27 April 1927) was a Brazilian politician, and president of the state of São Paulo for several months in 1924.
Interested in music, he was a composer and founding member of the São Paulo Academy of Letters, and became its sixteenth chairman.
Moving up to the federal level, he was representative (1918/1923) and became leader of the majority in the government of President Epitácio Pessoa.
On July 5, 1924, during his tenure as state governor,[1] the 1924 São Paulo revolt erupted, compelling the federal government of Brazil to bomb the city and forcing Campos to take refuge in Guaiaúna, where the government forces were concentrated.
Under this administration the Guarda Civil was created, and the Public Force started to count on a flotilla of airplanes.
