Revolution Of Maria Da Fonte
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) 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 government of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

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 tragical) 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. In this ''tension'' between Camilo and Eça – often dubbed by critics ''the literary guerrilla'' – many have interpreted a synthesis of the two g ...

1834 Quadruple Alliance
The Quadruple Alliance was a treaty signed between the United Kingdom, France, Spain and Portugal on April 22, 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, Russia and Prussia, absolutist powers, as a joint diplomatic action in international politics to defend the liberal models represented by the governments of the Quadruple. 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 Spain, in a manner closer to a protectorate. This put an end to Spain's members ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Patuleia
The Patuleia, Guerra da Patuleia, or Little Civil War was a civil war in Portugal, so called to distinguish it from the 'great' civil war between Dom Pedro and Dom Miguel that ended in 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", to set up a clearly Cartista government presided over by marshal João Oliveira e Daun, Duque de Saldanha. The war lasted 8 months, pitting the Cartistas (with the support of queen Maria II) against an unnatural coalition of Septembrists and Miguelists. The focus of resistance to the new government was the Septembrist 'Junta of Porto', whose military leader, the First Count of Bonfim, was defeated by Marshal Saldanha at the siege of Torres Vedras on 22–23 December 1846, and sent into exile in Angola. The war ended in a clear Cartista victory, as shown in the signing of the resul ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Emboscada (historical Event)
The Emboscada (Portuguese language, Portuguese - Ambush) was a palace coup of 6 October 1846, by which queen Maria II of Portugal, Maria II deposed the government presided over by Pedro de Sousa Holstein, 1st Duke of Palmela, that had been installed on 20 May that year as a result of the Revolution of Maria da Fonte. By thus dismissing the government of Palmela, that had only come to power 5 months earlier, and replacing it with a Cartista government (described as government of the Cabrais without António Bernardo da Costa Cabral, 1st Marquess of Tomar, Cabral) presided over by João Francisco de Saldanha Oliveira e Daun, 1st Duke of Saldanha, the monarch rekindled the revolt and precipitated the civil war known as the Patuleia.
