Fordlandia was an American styled industrial town built by the Ford Motor Company in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest in the late 1920s. The town was intended to provide a source of rubber for the company's automobile production. However, the project was plagued by difficulties, including disease, labor unrest, and poor management. The project was eventually abandoned in the 1940s.
