Tocantins ({{IPA|pt-BR|tokɐ̃ˈtʃĩs|lang|Pt-br Tocantins.ogg}}{{efn|The presented pronunciation is in the Brazilian Portuguese variant spoken in Tocantins (and most of Brazil).}}) is one of the 26 states of Brazil. It is the newest state, formed in 1988 and encompassing what had formerly been the northern two-fifths of the state of Goiás. Tocantins covers {{convert|277620.91|km2|mi2}} and had an estimated population of 1,496,880 in 2014. Construction of its capital, Palmas, began in 1989; most of the other cities in the state date to the Portuguese colonial period. With the exception of Araguaína, there are few other cities with a significant population in the state. The government has invested in a new capital, a major hydropower dam, railroads and related infrastructure to develop this primarily agricultural area. The state has 0.75% of the Brazilian population and is responsible for 0.5% of the Brazilian GDP.
Tocantins has attracted hundreds of thousands of new residents, primarily to Palmas. It is building on its hydropower resources. The Araguaia and Tocantins rivers drain the largest watershed that lies entirely inside Brazilian territory. The Rio Tocantins has been dammed for hydropower, creating a large reservoir that has become a center of recreation. Because it is in the central zone of the country, Tocantins has characteristics of the Amazon Basin, and also semi-open pastures, known as cerrado. The Bananal Island (Ilha do Bananal), in the southwest of the State, is the second largest fluvial island in the world. Tocantins is also home to the Araguaia National Park, the Carajás Indian reservations, and Jalapão State Park, which is about {{convert|250|km}} from Palmas. There, the rivers create oases in the dry landscape, attracting many ecotourists to the region.
Etymology
The name "Tocantins" refers to the Tocantins River, which itself derives from the Tupi language words tukã´, "toucan", and tï, "beak", literally "Toucan's beak".Amorim, F. W. (2020). Are the New World hummingbird‐hawkmoths functional equivalents of hummingbirds? Ecology, 101(12). doi:10.1002/ecy.3161
Geography
The geography of Tocantins is varied. It straddles both the Amazon rainforest and the coastal savanna. Many rivers (including the Tocantins River) traverse the state. Researchers have identified more than 20 archaeologically significant sites related to indigenous cultures.{{Cite web |title=Araguaia & Tocantins Rivers |url=https://archive.internationalrivers.org/campaigns/araguaia-tocantins-rivers |access-date=2022-06-03 |website=International Rivers |language=en}}
Tocantins is bordered to the northeast by the states of Maranhão and Piauí, Bahia to the east, Goiás to the south, Mato Grosso to the west, and Pará to the northwest. Tocantins was created from the northern two-fifths of Goiás state in 1989 and is divided into 139 municipalities.
Following its separation from Goiás, the new state was transferred from Brazil's Central-West Region to the North Region.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}

File:Dunas_do_Jalapão,_em_Mateiros.jpg
Most of Tocantins (except the extreme western and northern regions) is situated within a vast Brazilian area known as the cerrado. The cerrado region's typical climate is hot and semi-humid, with pronounced seasonal variation marked by a dry winter from May through October. The average annual rainfall is around 1500 mm.{{cite web | title= Tocantins | website=Encyclopedia Britannica | date=July 20, 1998 | url=https://www.britannica.com/place/Tocantins | access-date=March 1, 2024}}

{{More citations needed section|date=February 2021}}
The "cerrado" landscape cover 87% of Tocantins and is characterized by extensive savanna formations crossed by gallery forests and stream valleys. Cerrado includes various types of vegetation. Humid fields and "buriti" palm paths are found where the water table is near the surface. Alpine pastures occur at higher altitudes and mesophytic forests on more fertile soils. In the north of Tocantins the cerrado gives place to a zone of transition for the Amazon biome, near Tocantins River.
The savanna formations are not homogenous. There is great variation between the amount of woody and herbaceous vegetation, forming a gradient from completely open "cerrado" — open fields dominated by grasses — to the closed, forest-like "cerrado" and the "cerradão" ("big cerrado"), a closed canopy forest. Intermediate forms include the dirty field, the "cerrado" field, and the "cerrado" sensu stricto, according to a growing density of trees.
The "cerrado" trees have characteristic twisted trunks covered by a thick bark, and leaves that are usually broad and rigid. Many herbaceous plants have extensive roots to store water and nutrients. The plant's thick bark and roots serve as adaptations for the periodic fires which sweep the cerrado landscape. The adaptations protect the plants from destruction and make them capable of sprouting again after the fire.
As in many savannas in the world, the "cerrado" ecosystems have been coexisting with fire since ancient times. Initially they developed adaptations to natural fires caused by lightning or volcanic activity.
Along the western boundary of the state is the floodplain of the Araguaia River, which includes extensive wetlands and Amazon tropical forest ecosystems. Bananal Island, formed by two branches of the Araguaia, is said to be the largest river island in the world. It consists mostly of marshlands and seasonally flooded savannas, with gallery forest. Where the two branches meet again they form an inland delta called Cantão, a typical Amazonian igapó flooded forest. The Araguaia is also one of the main links between the Amazonian lowlands and the Pantanal wetlands to the south, but the river is not fully navigable.
History
File:Mapa da Província do Araguaia.tif.]]
Portuguese Jesuit missionaries explored what is today Tocantins state about 1625, seeking to convert the Amerindian peoples of the area to Christianity. The area is named after the Tocantins River, whose name is derived from an indigenous language. (From: Tukô, Toucan + tï, beak. lit. "Toucan's beak" in Tupi language.)
Before 1988 the area made up the northern two-fifths or one-third of Goiás state. Since the 17th century, this area was relatively isolated by rivers navigable only in short portions and mountains, and difficult to access. As a result, the southern area of the state became more developed, particularly after this area was selected in 1956 as the site for the development of the new capital of Brasília and the Federal District.[http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/237167/Goias "Goias/ State Brazil"], Encyclopædia Britannica, 2015{{Better source|date=March 2021}} A strong separatist movement developed in the north for independence of its people.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}
After the government levied heavy taxes on mining in 1809, local residents began to organize a separatists movement. They made a minor revolt which was quickly crushed by the army. In the 19th century, a string of failed uprisings occurred in the north. Historically the area was inhabited chiefly by Amerindians in some intact indigenous tribes and pardos of Amerindian and Portuguese descent.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}
In the 1970s, the population of northern Goiás lobbied the government to establish a separate state. In the 1988 Constitution, the State of Tocantins was created and admitted as a new Brazilian state.
Since its establishment and investment by the government, as in the new capital of Palmas, Tocantins has been the fastest-growing Brazilian state. Its thriving economy is based on agriculture and agro-industry, attracting thousands of migrants from all over the country. The construction of the long-planned North–South Railway is expected to further boost economic growth.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}
Demographics
According to the 2022 census, there were 1,511,460 people residing in the state. The population density was {{convert|5.45|/km²|abbr=on}}.
Urbanization: 71.5% (2004); Population growth: 2.6% (1991–2000); Houses: 355,502 (2005).{{cite book |url=ftp://ftp.ibge.gov.br/Indicadores_Sociais/Sintese_de_Indicadores_Sociais_2007/Tabelas |title=Síntese de Indicadores Sociais 2007 |publisher=IBGE |year=2007 |isbn=978-85-240-3919-5 |location=Tocantins, Brazil |language=pt |format=PDF |access-date=2007-07-18}}

Economy
Image:Irrigated rice plantation at Formoso do Araguaia, Brazil.jpg]]
The service sector is the largest component of GDP at 59.9%, followed by the industrial sector at 27.2%. Agriculture represents 12.9% of GDP (2004). Tocantins exports: soybean 89.2%, beef 10.5% (2002). Tocantins' economy is based on an aggressive expansionist model of agro-exports and is marked by consecutive records of primary hyper-surpluses: its exports reveal its strong agricultural inclination. Following the example of neighboring states (Mato Grosso and Goiás), it is becoming a major grain producer (soy, corn, rice).
As with much of Brazil, Tocantins' economy is also dependent on cattle ranching. The state's pineapple plantations is considerable. In the state's north, charcoal and oils are extracted from the babaçu palm tree.
The gross value of the state's agricultural production was estimated at more than R$ 7.6 billion in 2019.{{cite web| url = https://seagro.to.gov.br/noticia/2019/12/20/producao-sustentavel-e-tecnificacao--impulsionam-o-desenvolvimento-do-setor-agropecuario-tocantinense/| title = Produção sustentável e tecnificação impulsionam o desenvolvimento do setor agropecuário tocantinense}}
In soy, Tocantins is the largest producer in the northern region of Brazil. In the 2019 harvest, Tocantins harvested 3 million tons.{{cite web| url = http://www.rondonia.ro.gov.br/rondonia-deve-produzir-12-milhoes-de-toneladas-de-soja-na-safra-20192020/| title = Rondônia deve produzir 1,2 milhão de toneladas de soja na safra 2019/2020| date = 13 January 2020}}{{cite web| url = https://blogs.canalrural.com.br/embrapasoja/2019/07/10/soja-e-ouro-do-estado-do-tocantins/| title = Soja é ouro no estado do Tocantins| date = 10 July 2019}}{{cite web| url = https://www.embrapa.br/busca-de-noticias/-/noticia/46487476/especialistas-e-produtores-debatem-sobre-a-expansao-da-soja-no-para| title = Especialistas e produtores debatem sobre a expansão da soja no Pará}}
In maize, the state harvested close to 1 million tonnes in 2019.
In 2019 Tocantins was the leader in rice production in the North region, becoming the 3rd largest producer in Brazil. Harvested more than 670 thousand tons in the 2016/2017 harvest.
Regarding pineapple, in 2018 Tocantins was the 6th largest producer state in Brazil, with 69 million fruits.{{cite web| url = http://www.cnpmf.embrapa.br/Base_de_Dados/index_pdf/dados/brasil/abacaxi/b1_abacaxi.pdf| title = Produção brasileira de abacaxi em 2018, Embrapa}}
In 2019 the state's cattle herd was 8 million animals.
About industry, Tocantins had an industrial GDP of R$ 4.5 billion in 2017, equivalent to 0.4% of the national industry. It employs 30,234 workers in the industry. The main industrial sectors are: Construction (34.1%), Industrial Services of Public Utility, such as Electricity and Water (28.4%), Food (22.5%), Non-metallic minerals (5.2%) and Chemicals (1.5%). These 5 sectors concentrate 91.7% of the state's industry.{{cite web| url = http://perfildaindustria.portaldaindustria.com.br/estado/to| title = Industry Profile of Tocantins}}
Its industry is mainly agroindustry, centralized in six districts located in five pole cities: Palmas, Araguaína, Gurupi, Porto Nacional and Paraíso do Tocantins. Its industry is still small and focused mainly on domestic consumption.[https://www.to.gov.br/sics/distritos-industriais/48yj3k82scp9 Distritos Industriais do Tocantins]>
In the tertiary sector (commerce and services), its main activities are concentrated in the capital Palmas and also in the cities that are located on the side of the Belém-Brasília Highway (BR-153 and BR-226). This highway is vital for Tocantins, as it cuts the state from north to south and allows for a better performance in the economic growth of the cities located on its banks, serving as a warehouse for road transport and services for travelers. In addition, the Belém-Brasília Highway also facilitates the flow of production from Tocantins to other states and to ports on the coast.{{Cite web|url=https://biblioteca.ibge.gov.br/index.php/biblioteca-catalogo?view=detalhes&id=441654|title=IBGE | Biblioteca|website=IBGE | Biblioteca}}{{Cite web|url=https://g1.globo.com/to/tocantins/noticia/br-153-rodovia-transformou-a-vida-de-moradores-do-norte-do-tocantins.ghtml|title=BR-153: rodovia transformou a vida de moradores do norte do Tocantins|date=June 13, 2017|website=G1}}

The main federal highways in Tocantins are BR-153 and BR-226, which together form the road axis of the Belém-Brasília Highway. The others are BR-010, BR-235 and BR-242. These last highways still have many sections that are unpaved or even incomplete. In Tocantins, the Belém-Brasília Highway (BR-153 and BR-226) was the first highway to be built and paved in the state, having been built during the late 1950s.[http://ftp.seinf.to.gov.br/Repositorio/Downloads/Rodovias/Rodoviario_TO_2015_ROD.pdf Mapa Rodoviário do Tocantins]{{Cite web|url=https://www.centronortenoticias.com.br/noticia;id=194|title=CNN | Centro Norte Noticias|website=www.centronortenoticias.com.br}}

Flag
The message of the flag is the phrase "where the sun rises for all". In the middle of the flag is the golden yellow sun, with its rays symbolically targeting to the future of the state. The sun is placed on a white band, where the white color represents peace. The blue in the upper left and the yellow in the bottom right represent the waters and the soil of the state. The colors date back to a flag used by the Autonomous Government of Palmas in the 19th century.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}
The flag was adopted with the state flag law (law no 094/89) of November 17, 1989.{{Cn|date=March 2021}}
