Founding of the Brazilian Spiritist Federation
On 2 January 1884 the Federação Espírita Brasileira (FEB) was founded in Rio de Janeiro. It became the main publisher and organiser of Kardecist Spiritism in the country that now has more Spiritists than any other.

The account
FEB later published most of Chico Xavier's books, including 'Nosso Lar'. Brazil's census counts several million Spiritists, and many more people attend Spiritist centres without declaring it.
