Hi,

The word 'Estado' means state and it is not usual to add it as a prefix of the state name when listing states. The other brazilian states in geonames do not have that.
So, for the sake of consistency it should be:

BR.11 Mato Grosso do Sul Mato Grosso do Sul 3457415

BR.05 Bahia Bahia 3471168


Also Bahia does not have the accent, Bahía is wrong, it should be Bahia.

I have tried to edit them but I do not have the privileges to do so.

Thank you for your attention.
