The rubber boom (Portuguese: Ciclo da borracha , 1879 to 1912) was an important part of the economic and social history of Brazil and Amazonian regions of neighboring countries, being related with the extraction and commercialization of rubber. This boom was centered in the Amazon, facilitating a large expansion of colonization, attracting wealth and causing cultural and social transformations, along with encouraging the growth of Manaus, Porto Velho, and Belem, which today remain major cities and the capitals of their respective Brazilian states, Amazonas, Rondonia and Para, as well as Iquitos in the Peruvian department of Loreto, for example. The rubber boom occurred largely between 1879 to 1912, and afterwards experienced a revival from 1942 to 1945 during the Second World War.
