The Paulista Revolt of 1924, also known as the Forgotten Revolution, Isidoro Revolution, Revolution of 1924 and the Second 5 July, was the second tenentist revolt in Brazil. The armed conflict took place mainly in and around the city of São Paulo between 5 and 28 July 1924. It was based in the dissatisfaction of junior officers with the country's economic crisis and the concentration of power in the hands of politicians from São Paulo and Minas Gerais states. Outbreak of the revolt Commanded by general Isidoro Dias Lopes, the revolt involved a number of junior officers, including Joaquim do Nascimento Fernandes Távora (who died in the revolt), Juarez Távora, Miguel Costa, Eduardo Gomes, Artur Índio do Brasil e Silva and João Cabanas.

With neither aircraft nor artillery of their own, the rebels were eventually forced out of the city in the early morning of 28 July, and at ten that morning Carlos
