Studies historiográficos there is they very already trace the difference between an and other foundation, being alleged that January 1° would be the date of elevation of the Camp of the Fork to the category of Villa. What is a discenso, because he/she/it cannot found a city in a place that would only come to be later discovered years.

The economy would be in that period based on the sugar-cane and in the extrativismo. But at the end of the century XIX the city again is estagnada, like this staying up to 1930. During that period, the isolation does with that the city grows in a very own way and the culture becomes only. Starting from 1930 the isolation is broken with the connections bus stations with Goiás and São Paulo and the commercial aviation.

The agronegócio expands for the state, and the city begins the to be modernized and to industrialize. She spends in 20 years of a pacata city to a metropolis. After 1990, the rate of growth populacional decreases, and the tourism begins to be seen as source of income.
