This is Hiriart's Set 1284 DRAGOES DA INDEPENDENCIA, BRASIL. This unit serves as the presidential bodyguard and can trace its' history to the cavalry squadrons of the Viceregal Guards of Brazil which were founded in 1763. The present uniform was introduced in 1882 and hasn't been changed since. It was inspired by the uniforms of the Austrian Dragoons of that time period.
