Brazil's National Council of Justice Orders Same-Sex Marriage

Brazil's National Council of Justice issued a resolution requiring all civil registry offices nationwide to perform same-sex marriages, effectively legalising marriage equality across the country. This followed a 2011 Supreme Court ruling recognising same-sex unions and years of patchwork legalisation across individual states. Brazil became the third country in Latin America and the largest in the world at that time to achieve nationwide marriage equality.
