Why does Brazil say Ordem e Progresso?

Brazil does not have Ordem e Progresso as its national motto; Mexico does. Order e Progresso means "order and progress." It symbolizes Mexico's aspiration of creating stability under the country's president and military strong man Porfirio Diaz during a time of rapid modernization and political unrest.

Meanwhile, Brazil's national motto is Ordem e Progresso—meaning Order and Progress. The motto is an ode to Auguste Comte's philosophy of the positivism philosophy: love as a principle, order as the base, and progress as the goal.
