The municipality of Iomer� (2,743 inhabitants in 2010; 11,474 ha) is located
420 km west of Florian�polis.
Iomer� was settled in 1912 by the Companhia
Colonizadora Selbach & Kr�ef, under the name of Fachinal Branco (White
Clearing), which was elevated to a district in 1917. Subsequently renamed to S�o
Luiz for its first colonist, the town was renamed on 1 May 1944 to Iomer�, in
Tupi-Guarani, White Clearing.
Successively incorporated to the municipalities
of Porto Uni�o, Campos Novos, Joa�aba, and, eventually, Videira, Iomer� was
established as a municipality by State Law No. 9,898 promulgated on 20 July
1995, following a plebiscite held on 19 March 1995.
