Rio de Janeiro is the second largest city in Brazil, South America.

History

When Black Bolt confronted Thanos in hopes of preventing the Mad Titan's invasion of Earth in the search of his son, he unleashed a powerful attack that triggered a Terrigen Bomb and destroyed Attilan in the process.[2] The resultant Terrigen Cloud released in New York City began to circumvent the globe, striking Rio de Janeiro and transforming Humans of Inhuman descent. Black Bolt later stopped a band of mercenaries hired by the Ennilux corporation from exploiting these individuals.[3]
