Origens Os destinos da Real Casa de Bragança e do Reino de Portugal têm estado entrelaçados durante séculos. A própria independência de Portugal, que único entre os reinos ibéricos conseguiu sobreviver sem a união à Coroa de Castela, é, em grande parte, devido á determinação de sucessivos Princípes de Bragança. Quando o último Rei da Dinastia de Avis, Henrique I , Cerdeal da Sagrada Igreja Romana, morreu em 1580, o trono de Portugal foi tomado por Filipe II de Espanha. A Espanha permaneceu em ocupação durante 100 anos. Eventualmente os nobres portugueses rebeliaram-se e proclamaram João, VIII Duque de Bragança, como Rei João IV de Portugal a 1 de Dezembro de 1640. A Espanha foi finalmente derrotado na batalha de Montes Claros em 1665. Os portugueses rapidamente ganharam reconhecimento internacional e controlo das suas posses coloniais. A quando do tratado de Lisboa em 1668, a Espanha finalmente reconheceu a independência de Portugal e desistiu de quaisquer futuras tentativas de incorporar o seu povo no império espanhol. Os Duques de Bragança tinham estabelecido a sua residência em Guimarães mas em 1501 construíram um palácio substancial de estilo italiano em Vila Viçosa o qual permaneceu a sua principal sede daí em diante. João IV foi sucedido pelos seus dois filhos mais velhos. Afonso morreu no encarceramento tendo sido sucedido pelo seu irmão, Pedro, que governava já como Regente. Pedro, que formou uma aliança com a Inglaterra, foi sucedido por João V, que convenceu artistas e arquitectos de toda a Europa a irem para Lisboa. O seu suporte das cruzadas contra crescentes incursões muçulmanas no sul da Europa valeram-lhe o título de “Fidelíssima Majestade”. Apesar de enormes rendimentos do Brasil, os planos de expansão de João V tinham um custo superior ao previsto e, combinados com o devastador terramoto de Lisboa em 1755, com a segunda metade do século XVIII começou um período de gradual declínio do poder português. Ele foi sucedido por José que foi sucedido pela sua filha Maria, que foi por sua volta sucedida pelo seu único filho sobrevivente , João VI. O Rei João VI foi um monarca benevolente cujo bom governo impediu que o seu país fosse dominado pelo espirito revolucionário que reinava na Europa nos últimos anos do século. Contudo, os franceses ocuparam Portugal e forçaram a Familia Real a escapar num navio de guerra britânico para o exílio no Brasil. Com a queda de Napoleão , João VI decidiu regressar imediatamente a Portugal, que foi então governado por regência liderada pelo General Anglo-Irlandês, Beresford, e o embaixador britânico, Sir Charles Stuart. Os tumultos de 1820 em Itália e Espanha ecoaram em Portugal como tentativa de impor uma Constituição radical, obrigando o Rei a regressar e assumir o poder absoluto. João VI era de inclinação liberal, no entanto, ele e o seu principal Ministro, o Duque de Palmela, eram favoráveis a um sistema constitucional. Neste assunto tinham a oposição da Rainha, e o seu segundo filho ainda vivo, Dom Miguel, mostrando as sementes para uma luta entre liberais e conservadores que se reflectiu em Espanha com as guerras carlistas, e deu origem á divisão desastrosa nas Casas Reais de Bragança e Bourbon. Quando João VI regressou a Portugal deixou o seu filho mais velho, Pedro, regente do Brasil. A secessão do Brasil, que já tinha o seu próprio governo nacional, era já inevitável e, a 12 de Outubro de 1822, Pedro foi proclamado Imperador como Pedro I. |
