In Brazil, during the thirties, a fascist movement called "Integralismo" had a widespread support both among the population and the military: it was even encouraged by the government for some time, before being banned.
I was thinking about writing a TL where, after they broke their alliance with the government, the Integralistas manage to organize a successful overthrow of Getúlio Vargas' dictatorship (I was thinking of 1937 or 1938 for the coup) and turn the Brazilian state into a Fascist one, eventually aligning the country with the Axis in World War II.
Would such events be plausible and interesting to read about? If so, has any other timeline before used then? Thanks!
