Campina Grande (Portuguese "Great Plain") is the second most populous Brazilian city in the State of Paraíba after João Pessoa, the capital. It is considered to be the most important city of the Northeastern Brazilian subregion called agreste. It is considered one of the main industrial, technological and educational centers in the northeastern region of Brazil. The city was officially founded in 1864. Campina Grande also has a large cultural agenda, including the world's largest Saint John's Festival (called O Maior São João do Mundo), which takes place during the entire month of June.
The founding of Campina Grande is credited to Captain Teodósio de Oliveira Ledo who led a group of Ariús Indians to settle the land and begin farming on December 1, 1697. However, some historians do not agree with this version and suggest that the place was already a settlement and named Campina Grande when Teodósio arrived with the Ariús. This position is certainly supported by the fact that Campina Grande is in a critical geographic location for people travelling between the highlands and the coast.
Ricardo Nuno Queirós Nascimento (born 19 April 1974 in Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto) is a retired Portuguese footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.
Nascimento started his professional career with Leixões SC, playing a total of 16 games and scoring once for the second division side. He went on to make 205 league appearances for a host of clubs in his country, including Boavista FC, Varzim SC, Gil Vicente FC and Sporting de Braga. Prior to the two latter clubs, in 2000–01, he had his first abroad experience, with French outfit Montpellier HSC: the club promoted from level two, but the player only appeared in seven matches the entire campaign.
From February 2005, Nascimento had an Asian adventure, appearing for South Korea's FC Seoul, for whom he was signed on a free transfer from Rio Ave FC. In January 2008, he returned to Portugal, contributing with 14 games to C.D. Trofense's first ever top flight promotion.
After leaving Trofense in November 2008, Nascimento signed for C.D. Aves for a third spell, signing until the end of the season with the second division club. He stated: «I'm back to the club of my heart», upon his arrival, and left the club in June 2010 at the age of 36, being rarely used during his final spell, and retiring shortly afterwards.
