Miguel, Maria Evaristo de Bragança

    0.07 sec.

Miguel, Maria Evaristo de Bragança (1802-1866)

King of Portugal 1828-34. He was the third son of John VI of Portugal. When John died in 1826, the eldest son, Emperor Pedro I of Brazil, renounced his right to the succession in favour of his young daughter Maria da Gloria, with Miguel as regent. In 1928 Miguel proclaimed himself king. Faced with growing hostility from Britain, France, and Spain, he gave up his position in 1834 and left Portugal.
