Monte Santo, Municipality in Bahia, Brazil
Monte Santo is a municipality in Bahia, located in the northeastern part of Brazil where the land rises and falls with gentle hills. The area encompasses a mix of open spaces and semi-arid terrain characteristic of the region's broader landscape.
This municipality was founded to serve as an administrative center for the surrounding rural area. Over time, it grew to become a local gathering point for the communities in the region.
