'''Emílio Garrastazu Médici '''(December 4, 1905 – October 9, 1985) was a Brazilian military official and politician who served as President of Brazil from 1969-1974. Prior to his presidency he served as the head of Brazil's National Intelligence Service.

His regime is widely considered to be the most brutal and extreme of the Brazilian military governments of 1964-1985 with his regime infamous for numerous human rights violations, widespread [[torture]], censorship of men’s magazines such as ''Playboy'', ''Penthouse'', ''Lui'', as well as regular magazines such as then West German magazine ''Der Spiegel'', and executions of opponents.

Nevertheless, Médici was popular, as his term was met with the largest economic growth of any Brazilian President, the Brazilian Miracle unfolded, authored jointly by his liberal ministers ahead of the ''Ministério do Planejamento'' and ''Ministério da Fazenda'' (planning and finances) Roberto Campos and Delfim Netto, and the country won the 1970 Football World Cup. In 1971 Médici presented the First National Development Plan aimed at increasing the rate of economic growth especially in the remote Northeast and Amazon basin.
