Maria Da Fonte Revolution
The Revolution of Maria da Fonte, or Revolution of the Minho, is the name given to a popular revolt in the spring of 1846 against the Cartista government of Portugal (presided over by António Bernardo da Costa Cabral, 1st Marquess of Tomar). The revolt resulted from social tensions remaining from the Liberal Wars, exacerbated by great popular discontent generated by new military recruitment laws, fiscal alterations and the prohibition on burials inside churches. It began in the area of Póvoa de Lanhoso (Minho Province, Minho) by a popular uprising that little by little extended to the whole north of Portugal. The instigator of the initial riots was a woman called Maria, native of the freguesia of Fontarcada, who would become known by the nickname of Maria da Fonte. As the initial phase of the insurrection had a strong female element, she ended up giving her name to the revolt. The uprising afterwards spread to the remainder of the country and provoked the replacement of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Patuleia
The Patuleia, Guerra da Patuleia, or Little Civil War was a civil war in Portugal in 1846-47, so called to distinguish it from the 'great' civil war between Pedro IV of Portugal, Pedro IV and Miguel I (1828-1834). The Patuleia occurred after the Revolution of Maria da Fonte, and was closely associated with her. It was caused by the nomination, as a result of the palace coup of 6 October 1846, known as the "Emboscada (historical event), Emboscada", to set up a clearly Cartista government presided over by marshal João Francisco de Saldanha Oliveira e Daun, 1st Duke of Saldanha, João Oliveira e Daun, Duke of Saldanha.
The war lasted eight months, pitting the Cartistas (with the support of Queen Maria II of Portugal, Maria II) against an unnatural coalition of Septembrism, Septembrists and Miguelists. The f ...

Cabralism
Cabralism is the period from 1842 to 1846 when António Bernardo da Costa Cabral dominated Portuguese politics. Cabralism was characterized by the adoption of the constitutional doctrine contained in the restored Constitutional Charter of 1826, which was taken as a dogma to be scrupulously respected, thus creating a stable framework that was exploited by the government. The government was characterized by being a strong executive, decisively supported by the royal powers enshrined in the Charter, especially the reserve power vested in the sovereign. History With the express support of Queen Maria II, of whom Costa Cabral was considered a valedictorian, the government's parliamentary front was secured by an obedient majority, congregated in an exclusivist party and committed to maintaining, against the onslaughts of the left and the remnants of Miguelism, the order deemed necessary for the country's development. One of the first reforms of Cabralism was administrative centr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
19th-century Revolutions
The 19th century began on 1 January 1801 (represented by the Roman numerals MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 (MCM). It was the 9th century of the 2nd millennium. It was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanded beyond its British homeland for the first time during the 19th century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, France, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Catholic Church, in response to the growing influence and power of modernism, secularism and materialism, formed the First Vatican Council in the late 19th century to deal with such problems and confirm cer ...

Camilo Castelo Branco
Camilo Castelo Branco, 1st Viscount of Correia Botelho (; 16 March 1825 – 1 June 1890), was a prolific Portuguese writer of the 19th century, having produced over 260 books (mainly novels, plays and essays). His writing is considered original in that it combines the dramatic and sentimental spirit of Romanticism with a highly personal combination of sarcasm, bitterness and dark humour. He is also celebrated for his peculiar wit and anecdotal character, as well as for his turbulent (and ultimately tragic) life. His writing, which is centred in the local and the picturesque and is in a general sense affiliated with the Romantic tradition, is often regarded in contrast to that of Eça de Queiroz – a cosmopolitan dandy and a fervorous proponent of Realism, who was Camilo's literary contemporary in spite of being 20 years younger. This ''tension'' between Camilo and Eça – often dubbed by critics ''the literary guerrilla'' – has been interpreted as a synthesis of the two ...

The Quadruple Alliance was a treaty signed between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Kingdom of France, Spain and Kingdom of Portugal on 22 April 1834, by which the four States undertook to expel from Portugal the Portuguese Infante Miguel and the Spanish Infante Carlos. With the beginning of the Carlist War, additional articles were signed in August of that year, by which the rest of the signatory parties undertook to help the legitimist government in Spain. The treaty was understood by the Austrian Empire, Russian Empire and Kingdom of Prussia, absolutist powers, as a joint diplomatic action in international politics to defend the liberal models represented by the governments of the Quadruple Alliance. In the practical field, given that France and the United Kingdom were the first European powers, it was a question of both securing partial control of Spain and Portugal as medium-sized countries with unstable policies, such as the government of Isabella II in S ...
