The document summarizes the crisis of the Ancien Regime in Spain from 1808-1833. Key events included:
- Charles IV's ineffective reign led to economic and social problems and growing tensions.
- Spain became increasingly subordinate to French interests under the rule of Manuel Godoy. This led to military defeats and invasion by Napoleon.
- In 1808, popular uprisings and royal abdications allowed Napoleon to take control of Spain and precipitate the collapse of the old system.
La dictadura de Primo de Rivera (1923-1930) radicalizó el movimiento obrero y terminó en fracaso. Primo de Rivera llevó a cabo algunas mejoras económicas pero su régimen perdió apoyo público. En 1930 dimitió y la monarquía colapsó, dando paso a la Segunda República en 1931.

1) Charles IV became King of Spain in 1788 after his father Charles III died, but he was not well suited for ruling.
2) In 1792, he appointed Manuel Godoy as his prime minister, who initially fought against France but then allied with them against Britain.
3) Napoleon later took advantage of this alliance by pressuring Charles to abdicate in 1808, leading to the start of the Peninsular War as Spanish citizens rebelled against French occupation.
4) The war lasted from 1808 to 1814, with guerrilla fighters resisting the French through irregular tactics and the British and Spanish armies later forcing the French withdrawal.

1) The 19th century was a period of transformation for Spain as the political, economic, and social structures of the Old Regime disappeared and were replaced by a liberal system.
2) This change brought instability like civil wars and military coups. The economy began to modernize but more slowly than other countries, and Spain remained largely agrarian.
3) The process to achieve democracy in Spain was long and turbulent, including periods of absolutism under King Ferdinand VII and the establishment of the first Spanish constitution in 1812 known as "La Pepa" during the War of Independence against Napoleon's occupation.
Carlos IV reinó en España desde 1788 hasta 1808. Mantuvo una postura antirrevolucionaria frente a la Revolución Francesa pero luego cambió a una alianza con Francia debido a los ataques ingleses a barcos españoles. España fue derrotada en Trafalgar en 1805 y firmó el Tratado de Fontainebleau en 1807 permitiendo el paso de tropas francesas por España para invadir Portugal. Esto provocó el Motín de Aranjuez y las abdicaciones de Bayona, donde Napoleón impuso a su hermano José I Bonaparte
The 17th century saw major political and military conflicts in Europe. The Thirty Years' War from 1618-1648 began as a religious conflict in the Holy Roman Empire and eventually drew in most European powers. It significantly weakened the Holy Roman Empire and Spain. The subsequent Franco-Spanish War from 1648-1659 resulted in French victories over Spain and the Treaty of the Pyrenees, further reducing Spanish power. Absolute monarchy became the dominant political system in Europe during this time, exemplified by Louis XIV of France, while England established a parliamentary system that limited royal power.
La transición de España de un régimen autoritario a la democracia entre 1975 y 1982 fue un proceso progresivo impulsado por la presión popular y la oposición democrática, así como por la voluntad de cambio de algunos sectores del régimen franquista.

The document discusses the causes of the Dutch revolt against Philip II of Spain's rule between 1566-1609. It analyzes several long-term and short-term factors, including Philip II's centralization of power, the growth of Calvinism, the repressive policies of the Duke of Alva, and the economic tensions that emerged. While Philip II deserves some blame for instigating tensions through his absolutist rule, the revolt was also a result of the interplay between these political, religious, and economic issues over decades.
La crisis del reinado de Carlos IV y el gobierno de Godoy llevaron a España a aliarse con Francia y sufrir derrotas navales. Esto provocó revueltas populares contra Godoy y la abdicación forzada de Carlos IV y su hijo Fernando VII a favor de Napoleón. El pueblo de Madrid se sublevó espontáneamente el 2 de mayo de 1808 contra los soldados franceses dando inicio a la guerra de independencia española.
La guerra de independencia cubana de 1895 llevó a España a la guerra con los Estados Unidos en 1898.

Cova Negra cave is located near the Albaida river in Xátiva, Valencia. Excavations have uncovered remains from Neanderthals who lived there over 100,000 years ago, including bones, teeth, and stone tools. The climate was initially mild but later grew very cold and wet during the Würm glaciation. Further excavations found more human and animal remains, demonstrating that Neanderthals occupied the cave sporadically, with periods of use separated by long stretches of abandonment. Cova Negra is the most important Middle Paleolithic site in Valencia and provides insights into human evolution in Europe 300,000 years ago.
The Pla de Petracos cave paintings are located in Castell de Castells, Spain and date back to between 7,500-6,500 BC. The site contains a large cave and eight rock shelters, five containing paintings featuring mainly human figures and agricultural scenes in bright red paint. Archaeologists believe the interior of the large cave was used for rituals, religious ceremonies, and housing by the early Neolithic inhabitants who created the paintings.
Archeological site which belongs to Early Neolithic. It is not far from Valencia. It should be noted that paleoanthropologists found some corpses there; one of them with a trepanation in the skull.
Elephant Pit is an archaeological site located in the Sierra de Atapuerca in northern Spain. Excavations at Elephant Pit have uncovered stone tools dating back 1.5-1.2 million years, as well as human remains from at least 1.2 million years ago belonging to Homo antecessor. The site provides evidence of early human occupation in Europe in a landscape that was likely dominated by rainforest, with a Mediterranean climate. Ongoing excavations continue to uncover additional remains that provide insight into human evolution and life in the early Pleistocene.
The Bats Cave is located 4km from Zuheros, Spain on top of Cerro de los Murciélagos. It contains artifacts from the Neolithic period around 6,000 years ago when inhabitants lived near the entrance. They made tools, pottery, and personal items and left behind skeletal remains. The cave also contains Paleolithic paintings around 18,000 years old left by earlier inhabitants. It has been an important archaeological site revealing details about climate change and human habitation in the region over thousands of years.

The document discusses several archaeological findings in Spain. It describes how human remains from hominids over 500,000 years old have been discovered at the Bones Pit site in Atapuerca. It also discusses the discovery of an engraved design made intentionally by Neanderthals on rock in a cave in Gibraltar, providing evidence of symbolic thinking. Additionally, it summarizes the finding of a large intact vessel from the early Bronze Age during an excavation in Toledo that was still in the location it was used over 4,000 years ago.
The document summarizes myths and histories related to ancient kings in the Iberian Peninsula. It describes Gargoris, the mythical first king of Tartessos who had an incestuous relationship with his daughter. It then tells the story of his grandson Habis, who was abandoned at birth but survived numerous attempts on his life and later became king. The document also discusses the historical King Arganthonios, who ruled Tartessos for 80 years in the 7th-6th centuries BC. Finally, it provides biographical details about the Carthaginian general Hamilcar Barca who expanded Carthaginian control in Iberia in the 3rd century BC before dying in battle.

The Hispanic Monarchy during the 17th centurypapefons Fons
The 17th century saw the decline of the Hispanic Monarchy under the rule of indolent monarchs. Though most of the empire was maintained through this century, it came at great cost to the population. Monarchs delegated power to favorites ("validos") who often used their positions corruptly. Major crises occurred during this time, including revolts in Catalonia and Portugal in 1640 that led to Portuguese independence by 1668. The inbreeding of the Habsburg dynasty also took its toll, culminating in the disabled rule of Charles II at the end of the 17th century, leaving the empire vulnerable to the ambitions of Louis XIV of France.
The Democratic Sexenio from 1868 to 1874 in Spain was a turbulent period after Queen Isabella II was deposed. It began with hopes for a democratic system with universal male suffrage, but the new government struggled with problems like ongoing wars in Cuba and clashes between workers and politicians. Several interim governments and leaders tried to establish a stable monarchy, but the short-lived First Spanish Republic was declared in 1873 due to ongoing instability. By 1874, a military dictatorship led by General Serrano took over and paved the way for the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy.
Bones Pit is placed in Atapuerca. It's an archeological site where we have found the most ancient hominids in the Iberian Peninsula. It's one of the most important archeological site all over the world.

In Atapuerca, researchers found over 200 hominid fossils in 2014 and seven Neanderthal skulls dated to 434,000 years old, providing information about their evolution. Engravings of lines found in Gorham's Cave in Gibraltar are believed to be one of the earliest examples of abstract art created intentionally by Neanderthals, showing their advanced cognitive abilities.
Archaeologists discovered a large, well-preserved vessel from the early Bronze Age during an excavation in Toledo, Spain. The vessel was found buried 25cm underground in the position it was placed in 4,000 years ago. In the same excavation, archaeologists also uncovered smaller kitchen items from the period. Separately, during the 2014 excavation season at the Atapuerca archaeological site, the team discovered numerous hominid fossils over 500,000 years old that may belong to an ancestor of Neanderthals. Researchers also identified the first abstract engraving intentionally carved by Neanderthals, found on the floor of a cave in Gibraltar consisting of crossed and parallel lines.
This document provides an overview of prehistory in the Iberian Peninsula from the Stone Age through the Metal Ages. It describes the main periods including the Paleolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age, and Iron Age. Key sites from each period are discussed, such as Atapuerca which contains fossils of Homo antecessor and Homo heidelbergensis dating back over 700,000 years. Cave paintings from the Upper Paleolithic at sites like Altamira and Levantine art are also summarized. The development of agriculture and settlements in the Neolithic is covered.
The Nerja Cave is located near the coast in Malaga, Spain. Analysis of the cave's archaeological layers dating from 25,000 to 4,000 years ago provide information about climate changes and human occupation at the site. Remains found in the cave include bones, ceramics, textiles, cave paintings, and burials, indicating it was used as a habitat, burial site, and place for artistic expression. Some of the oldest known cave paintings, dated to 42,000 years ago, were discovered here and may have been created by Neanderthals.
The document summarizes Roman influence and conquest in Hispania (Roman Hispania). It describes how the Romans and Carthaginians initially competed for control of the Iberian Peninsula prior to the Punic Wars. It then outlines the three stages of Roman conquest: 1) Wars against the Carthaginians from 218-197 BC, 2) Wars against the Celtiberians and Lusitanians from 154-133 BC, and 3) Wars against the Astures, Cantabri and Gallaeci from 29-19 BC under Augustus. Finally, it discusses how Romanization spread through Hispania via urbanization, economic integration, adoption of the Latin language and Roman social structures.

Biiographies about some important Kings from the Metal Ages in the Iberian Pe...Pilar Quiros
Gargoris was a mythical king of Tartessos who invented beekeeping. He had an incestuous relationship with his daughter and tried to kill their son Habis when he was born. Habis survived multiple attempts on his life and later became king. Habis invented the plow and established Tartessian laws and society. Arganthonius was a later Tartessian king who ruled for 80 years and lived to 120 years old, supporting Greek allies with silver. Hamilcar Barca was a Carthaginian general who led forces against Rome in Sicily during the First Punic War. After defeats, he expanded Carthaginian control in Iberia, founding cities and preparing to attack Rome again from this new base
The document summarizes key events in Spanish history from 1808-1898, including:
- The French invasion and occupation of Spain beginning in 1808 led to the War of Independence and popular uprisings against French rule.
- To organize resistance, provincial juntas assumed sovereignty in the name of the exiled king Ferdinand VII and established the Supreme Central Junta in 1808.
- The Cortes convened in Cádiz in 1810 and initiated a bourgeois liberal revolution through political reforms while also drafting Spain's first constitution.
- After French troops withdrew in 1814, Spain experienced alternating periods of liberalism, absolutism, and democracy as it established a constitutional monarchy.

The document discusses the Spanish Independence War against Napoleon's forces between 1808 and 1813. It provides background on the economic, political, and social situation in Spain leading up to the war. It then describes the key events and phases of the war, including the uprising in Madrid, the battles of Bailen and Vitoria, and the role of guerrilla forces. Finally, it outlines the political, economic, and social consequences after the war, and notes the literature, art, and artists that emerged to document this time period.
The document summarizes major political events in Spain and Europe between 1788-1814, including:
1) Carlos III died in 1788 and was succeeded by Carlos IV as King of Spain; the French Revolution established a republic in France in 1789.
2) Napoleon conquered many countries and established the French Empire between 1804-1814. He joined Spanish naval forces in an alliance against Britain but was defeated at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
3) French troops invaded Spain in 1808 after being granted permission by the Treaty of Fontanableau, signed by Manuel Godoy. This led to royal abdications and Joseph Bonaparte becoming King of Spain as a French puppet.
Spain declared war on France in 1793 after the French king was guillotined, fearing the spread of liberal ideas. This war was a disaster for Spain. The ambitious Spanish minister Manuel Godoy slept with the queen and made a deal with Napoleon. In 1808, the Spanish people rebelled against Godoy and forced the abdication of King Charles IV. Napoleon then forced both Charles IV and his heir Ferdinand VII to abdicate and installed his brother Joseph Bonaparte as the new King of Spain, but he was unpopular. Many Spanish cities resisted the French invasion in the War of Independence from 1808-1814. Representatives from Spanish territories met in Cadiz in 1810 and adopted a liberal
This document summarizes important events in late 18th and early 19th century Spain. It describes the reign of King Carlos III who modernized Spain's infrastructure. It then discusses the weak rule of Carlos IV and the influence of Prime Minister Godoy. Napoleon Bonaparte's invasion of Spain and installation of his brother Jose Bonaparte as king led to the Spanish War of Independence from 1808-1814. The Constitution of 1812 established Spain's first constitutional monarchy and granted rights to its citizens, though it initially excluded women and non-Catholics.

The 18th century: the first Bourbons and Enlightenmentpapefons Fons
The document summarizes the political, social, and economic developments in Spain during the 18th century, a period defined by the establishment of the Bourbon dynasty and the influence of Enlightenment ideas. Key events included the War of Spanish Succession that resulted in Philip V becoming king, the centralization of power through absolutism and reforms, and Spain's involvement in international conflicts through alliances with France. The Bourbons suppressed regional autonomy outside of the Basque provinces and Navarre through the Nueva Planta decrees. The era saw the consolidation of an absolute monarchy, though Enlightenment thinking faced limitations from the Catholic Church.
The document summarizes the key events in the struggle for control of North America between France, Britain, and Spain from the late 17th century to the 1760s. It describes France establishing settlements in Canada led by Samuel de Champlain, the fur trade that developed, and the four intertwined European and colonial wars that resulted in Britain gaining control of most of France's North American territories by the Treaty of Paris in 1763. However, tensions grew as colonists increasingly settled west of the Appalachians against British wishes.
The document summarizes the decline of the Spanish Empire between the late 16th and early 17th centuries. It discusses how overextension of resources through wars and colonial enterprises bankrupted the empire. It faced strong adversaries like England, France and the Netherlands. Economic troubles were compounded by inflation from New World silver and gold, as well as plagues that killed many Castilians. While Spain had once dominated Europe, it continued to weaken throughout the 1600s due to its financial troubles and losses until it was no longer the dominant power on the continent by the mid-1600s.

The Catholic Kings Isabel I and Fernando II unified divided Spain and defeated the Muslim Empire in 1492, coinciding with the discovery of America. Juana I ("The Crazy Queen") became queen in 1505 despite an unhappy marriage. In 1604, King Philip III of Spain and King James I of England signed a perpetual peace treaty ending piracy and support for Dutch rebels. The War of Spanish Succession ended in 1701 with the Archduke Charles defeating Felipe V at the Battle of Almansa. The French occupation of Spain led to the Spanish War of Independence and eventual French expulsion after the Battle of Vitoria.
In the 17th century the Habsburgs faced many problems. The kingdom suffered a serious economic crisis and foreign wars continued. In the 17th century Spain lost its dominance and France increased its power.
Area Social Science: Modern Spain part 1castillosekel
This document summarizes key events in modern Spanish history from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It discusses how the French Revolution brought new ideas of liberty, equality and fraternity that spread from France to other parts of Europe. Napoleon Bonaparte rose to power in France and decided to invade Portugal and conquer Spain, sparking the Spanish War of Independence. The document examines paintings by Francisco Goya that reflected the turbulent political times in Spain during the French occupation and war.
1) The Eighty Years' War between the Netherlands and Spain was caused by heavy taxation and repression by the Spanish crown against Protestant Dutch provinces from 1568-1648.
2) Napoleon led a campaign into Egypt from 1798-1801 to damage British trade and threaten British India, viewing himself as a liberator of Egypt from the Ottomans rather than a conqueror.
3) The French defeated the Mamluks at the Battle of the Pyramids in 1798 but their fleet was destroyed by the British at the Battle of the Nile, trapping the French army in Egypt.
1. The document summarizes the rise of nationalism and liberalism in Europe following the Congress of Vienna in 1815. It discusses the restoration of absolutism by the monarchies and their attempts to suppress nationalist and liberal ideas. However, revolutionary movements in the 1820s started to undermine this system.
2. The Revolutions of 1830 saw the bourgeoisie seize power in parts of Europe, establishing constitutional monarchies, such as in France. The Revolutions of 1848 called for further democratic reforms including universal suffrage and sovereignty of the people.
3. Nationalist movements in the 19th century led to the independence of Greece from the Ottoman Empire and Belgium from the Netherlands. The Spanish colonies in America also
The Industrial Revolution began in the late 18th century in Great Britain and spread to Europe, leading to faster production through inventions like the steam engine. This caused many people to move from rural areas to cities seeking work, resulting in overcrowding and poor working conditions. The French Revolution established France as a constitutional monarchy and had ripple effects felt throughout Europe including in Spain. In the 19th century Spain faced political instability, lost its colonies to independence movements, and its society changed with the emergence of social classes like the working proletariat that sought better wages and conditions.
The French colonial empire began in 1605 with the founding of Acadia in Canada. Over the next few centuries, France established colonies across North America, the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific, becoming the second largest colonial power behind Britain by the 19th century. However, France lost most of its North American and Caribbean territories to Britain following several wars between the two powers from 1744-1815. While weakened, France rebuilt its empire in Africa and Asia in the 19th century before decolonization in the postwar period led to the end of the French colonial empire.

2. The crisis of the Ancien Régime became
unstoppable in Spain during Charles IV’s reign.
The coincidence of a complicated economic and
social context with the political crisis in the
government led to the collapse of the system in
the first decade of the 19th century. A lot of
problems concentrated in those years: bad
harvests, subsistence crises and bread riots,
malaria epidemics, increasing public order
problems, etc. In addition to this, all the
contradictions of the system became evident
when the permanent war situation cut the
connection with the Indies, increased the State
deficit to unsustainable limits and Spain’s
subordination to France’s interests led to the
invasion of the country and a power vacuum
which hastened the collapse of the system.

Goya, painted between 1808-1812. This painting
can symbolize all the threats the Spanish
population faced during the crisis of the Ancien

4. CHARLES IV ‘s REIGN (1788-1808)
Charles IV started ruling in 1788. His father advised him
to keep the enlightened ministers’ team who had
worked for him (Floridablanca). The first months of his
reign meant a continuation with the reforms, but
without questioning the system.
However, the French Revolution provoked a change in
the orientation of this enlightened policy. The fear of an
“infection” with the revolutionary ideas led to the
immediate closure of the Cortes and a series of
decisions to prevent France’s influence: border closure,
prohibition of importing books, prohibition to study
abroad, rigid censorship, suspension of the Pacte de
Famille with France... This reaction has been called
“Floridablanca’s panic”.
In 1792 Floridablanca was replaced by the Count of
Aranda, who tried a conciliation policy with the
Constitutional Monarchy in France. But when Louis XVI
and his family were imprisoned, conciliation seemed
impossible to maintain. Count of Aranda

painted by Goya in 1789
In November 1792 Aranda was replaced by
Manuel Godoy, a young Corps Guard who
had become a close friend of the royal
couple (especially Charles IV’s wife, Queen
Marie Louise of Parma). Godoy had no
political experience and his rise wasn’t well
received in the court, which contributed to
the monarchy loss of prestige. Godoy was in
charge of the government in two different
periods, from 1792 to 1798 and from 1801
to 1808.
In his first period of government (1792-
1798), Godoy formed a cabinet of
enlightened ministers, like Jovellanos,
Cabarrús, Meléndez Valdés… But the main
worries of this government were focused on
foreign policy. Louis XVI and Marie
Antoinette’s execution in France in 1793
obliged Spain to declare war on France (War
of the Pyrenees or War of the Convention,
1793-1795)
6. War of the Pyrenees, the
Convention or the
Roussillon (1793-1795)
Although the Spanish army,
commanded by General Ricardos,
started the war invading the
Roussillon, the lack of supplies and
the French reaction changed the
sign of the war. The French army
invaded Spain, occupying part of
Catalonia, Navarre, the Basque
provinces and even reached
Miranda de Ebro. Godoy was
obliged to sign a separated peace
with France, the Peace of Basel
(1795): Spain recognized the French
Republic, ceded them their part of
the Island of Hispaniola in exchange
for recovering Guipúzcoa and
signed commercial agreements with
France. For this negotiation, Charles
IV rewarded Godoy with the title of
Prince of the Peace. From then on,
Spain linked its destiny to France,
the only possible ally to confront
Great Britain.

7. In 1796 Spain and France signed the First
Treaty of San Ildefonso, which meant the
immediate war against Great Britain, with
very harmful consequences, because trade
with the Indies was interrupted almost
definitely, the Spanish Armada was defeated
at Cape Saint Vincent in 1797 and the
economic situation got considerably worse.
The Treasury decided to issue more vales
reales, but their constant devaluation and
the difficulty to pay the promised interests
led to an extraordinary decision: the first
confiscation of ecclesiastical properties
(properties of the expelled Jesuits, charity
institutions (hospitals, hospices, charity
houses…) in 1798, during Mariano Luis de
Urquijo’s government.

Vincent. Nelson receiving the

8. In 1801 Godoy came back to power, got rid of
his enemies and ruled as a dictator. Problems
persisted. He got the permission from the
Church to confiscate 1/7 of their properties to
finance the war against the United Kingdom
(created in 1800). The Second Treaty of San
Ildefonso was signed in 1801 with Napoleon
Bonaparte. Spain’s submission to France’s
interests increased and led to a short war
against Portugal, an ally of the United Kingdom.
This war, known as the War of the Oranges
(due to the oranges Godoy sent to Queen Marie
Louise as a present), ended with Spain’s victory
and the signature of the Treaty of Badajoz
(1801): Portugal closed its ports to Great
Britain’s ships and the Portuguese city of
Olivenza and the Colony of Sacramento in
Uruguay became Spanish. In 1802 the Peace of
Amiens was signed with the United Kingdom:
Spain recovered Minorca, but not Trinidad, but
trade with the Indies was re-established.

9. But in 1804 a new war against the United
Kingdom started. Napoleon prepared an invasion
of Great Britain and wanted to move the British
fleet away from the English Channel to the
Antilles. But the Spanish-French Armada,
commanded by Vice-Admiral Villeneuve, was
defeated by the British Navy, commanded by
Admiral Nelson, at Cape Trafalgar, near Cádiz port
(Battle of Trafalgar, 21st October 1805). This
defeat was a complete disaster for the Spanish
Armada, not for the number of ships lost, but for
the loss of most of its best officers (Churruca,
Alcalá Galiano, Gravina…).
This failure obliged Napoleon to adopt a new
strategy, the Continental Blockade, a sort of
economic warfare consisting of a large-scale
embargo against British trade (no European
country could buy or sell products to the United
Kingdom).

10. TREATY OF FONTAINEBLEAU (OCTOBER 1807)
Portugal refused to obey Napoleon’s orders and this led to the signature of the Treaty of
Fontainebleau, on the 27th October 1808: it allowed the entrance of French troops in Spain (28,000
soldiers), who would be joined by 27,000 Spanish soldiers in order to invade Portugal. It also included
the partition of Portugal into three parts, the North for the King of Etruria, the South for Godoy and
the central part which destiny would be decided after the end of the war. The French troops started
coming into Spain immediately.

11. In the court, Godoy’s enemies had
grouped around Charles IV’s heir, Prince
Ferdinand. This clique promoted the
publication of pamphlets against Godoy
and Prince Ferdinand wrote a letter to
Napoleon asking for his help and a
princess of his family as a wife. This letter
and other compromising papers were
discovered by Godoy’s spies on the 30th
October 1807. Charles IV accused his son
of wanting to dethrone him, Ferdinand
betrayed all his accomplices and was
obliged to ask pardon publicly to his
parents. All the people involved were
judged at El Escorial, but were finally
acquitted. These facts were known as El
Escorial Conspiracy or Process.
Charles IV discovered the conspirers in his son’s
bedroom and ordered the guard to lock them

punishment, he was
sent to a monastery,
but he managed to
intervene in the
Arajuez Mutiny too.
12. ARANJUEZ MUTINY
Godoy, fearing Napoleon’s intentions, advised the king to move to Seville in order to prepare a
possible flight to America. On the 16th March 1808, when the court was in Aranjuez, a mutiny
against Godoy organized by 20 grandees of Spain and supported by the royal guard and the local
population broke out. Godoy had to hide in order not to be killed.
13. The Aranjuez Mutiny finished with
Godoy’s destitution and Charles IV’s
abdication on his son on the 19th
March. But some days later Charles
IV repented and sent a letter to
Napoleon asking for his help to
recover the throne.

After the Abdications of
Bayonne he asked to be
appointed king of Spain,
but was finally appointed
King of Naples.
Napoleon was aware of the chaotic
situation in Spain’s government and
saw the possibility of controlling Spain.
The French troops had been taking up
positions in several cities and were also
in Madrid, commanded by General
Joachim Murat, who encouraged
Napoleon to seize the country.
Napoleon announced his intention of
going to Spain and Ferdinand VII
accepted his arbitration to solve the
problems with his father and departed
to Bayonne. Charles IV and his wife
also arrived in Bayonne on the 30th
April. The departure of the rest of the
royal family to Bayonne was the spark
that provoked the beginning of the
Peninsular War. Emperor Napoleon I in his office,

15. On the 2nd May 1808 some people who were near the
royal palace observed that some members of the
royal families went out of the royal palace escorted
by the French troops and thought that they were
being kidnapped. The people of Madrid attacked the
French soldiers and the uprising spread throughout
city. Captains Daoíz and Velarde joined the revolt and
gave weapons to the people, but they died fighting,
as did around 1,200 people. The French suffocated
the revolt and killed the prisoners on the 3rd May at
Príncipe Pío Mountain .

16. ABDICATIONS OF BAYONNE
In Bayonne, on the 5th May, Ferdinand gave the crown back to Charles IV. This one gave it to
Napoleon to decide what would be the best for Spain and signed and order appointing Murat, who
had to be obeyed, his lieutenant in Spain.
On the 19th May Napoleon called an assembly of 150 dignitaries who would have to meet in
Bayonne to discuss about Spain’s government and finally on the 6th June he appointed his brother
Joseph king of Spain (Joseph I) and the Cortes of Bayonne issued a sort of royal charter known as the
Bayonne Statute (7th July 1808), based on the French political system.

17. In Spain the authorities initially accepted the
orders that had arrived from Bayonne and
cooperated with the French, but the news of
what had happened in Madrid and Bayonne
provoked a generalized revolt and the
beginning of the Spanish Peninsular War
(1808-1814). The first local and provincial
boards appeared in many cities in order to
organize the resistance against the French.
The Supreme Board of Spain and the Indies,
formed in Seville, issued the Declaration of
War to the French Emperor on the 6th June. Fight at Valdepeñas, 6th June 1808, with Juana la
Galana attacking the French with a truncheon. After
this confrontment and other uprisings in other close
villages, like Santa Cruz de Mudela and Manzanares,
the French withdrew from the province of La
Mancha to Toledo and arrived late to Bailén

- Most of the nobles and clergy: return to
absolutism, defense of religion and traditions
- Most of the bourgeois:
• enlightened reformers, like Floridablanca or
Jovellanos: continuation of the reforms
• liberals: end with the Ancien Régime and
establish a constitutional monarchy
- Most of the population: no political ideas. They
only fought against the invaders and for their
king

19. The French sieged Zaragoza and suffered two
consecutive defeats in Catalonia in the Battles
of El Bruc (6th-14th June), but the most
determining event was their defeat at the
Battle of Bailén against the Spanish army,
commanded by General Castaños (19th July
1808). This defeat obliged Joseph I to retire
from Madrid to Vitoria.
The Portuguese, helped by the British also
expelled the French from Portugal, after the
Battle of Vimeiro (21st August). Napoleon had
to come into Spain with his Grande Armée
(250,000 experienced soldiers). In September
the Supreme Central Board was created in
Aranjuez and tried to coordinate the Spanish
military operations and look for allies against
the French.

20. 2ND STAGE (NOVEMBER 1808- 1812): ALMOST COMPLETE FRENCH CONTROL OF SPAIN
The French army commanded by Napoleon
defeated the badly organized Spanish troops in
several battles: Espinosa de los Monteros,
Gamonal and Somosierra. Napoleon arrived in
Madrid in December 1808 and issued the
Chamartín Decrees, which meant the abolition
of the Ancien Régime, although many of these
decisions didn’t come into force due to the war
situation.
After this, Napoleon went back to France and
Joseph I came back to Madrid. The French also
conquered Zaragoza and defeated the Spanish
army in Uclés (January 1809. The only success
of France’s enemies was the British victory in
Talavera (July 1809), but after the French
victory in Ocaña (November 1809), the
Supreme Central Board had to take refuge in
Seville first and later in Cádiz. The French
controlled all the Peninsula except Cádiz. Only
the guerrilla fighters continued to resist the
French.

23. At the beginning of 1812
Napoleon decided to
annex Catalonia to the
French Empire, with
Joseph I’s opposition. That
year the Napoleonic
Empire reached its top.
24. - In 1812 the Spanish-British army,
commanded by the Duke of Wellington,
launched an offensive from Portugal,
invaded Spain, conquered Salamanca and
Extremadura and defeated the French in
the Battles of Ciudad Rodrigo (January
1812) and Los Arapiles (July 1812). Joseph I
had to flee from Madrid again. The allied
troops occupied Madrid and later sieged
Burgos, but the French counter-attacked
and recovered Madrid.
- In 1813 the disaster of the Russian
campaign obliged the French to
progressively retire troops from Spain. The
Spanish-British launched the definitive
offensive, defeating the French in Vitoria
(June 1813), after which Joseph I definitely
left Spain, and San Marcial (August 1813)
and the conquests of San Sebastián and
Pamplona (October).
3RD STAGE: ALLIED OFFENSIVE AND FRENCH RETREAT (1812-1814)
Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington,
25. In December Napoleon signed the Treaty of
Valençay with Ferdinand VII, which allowed him to
come back to Spain, with the condition of not
persecuting the Francophiles. He came back to Spain
in March 1814. In the East of the Peninsula the
French troops retreated to River Llobregat and
stayed in Catalonia until April 1814.
CONSEQUENCES OF THE WAR
- Big demographic losses: estimates calculate
that the French lost around 200,000 soldiers
and 300,000-500,000 Spaniards died.
- Cities and fields were devastated
- production decreased
- hunger and epidemics spread and public debt
increased considerably.
- The power vacuum in Spain was the origin of
the uprisings in the Indies, which led to the loss
of the colonial empire in America.

the Treaty of Valençay
26. The beginning of the liberal revolution in
Spain took place during the Peninsular War.
The power vacuum created by the royal family
trip to Bayonne and the indifference of the
Spanish authorities after the French
repression of the 2nd of May revolt in Madrid
led to the creation of local and provincial
boards in many cities.
After Bailén victory, the provincial boards
demanded a unified power to coordinate the
military operations and in September 1808 the
Supreme Central Board was created in
Aranjuez, formed by 35 members (two from
every provincial board) and presided by the
Count of Floridablanca. The Supreme Central
Board assumed the executive and legislative
power in Ferdinand VII’s absence and tried to
organize resistance against the French.

27. THE SUPREME CENTRAL BOARD AND THE REGENCY
The Supreme Central Board assumed the executive
and legislative power in Ferdinand VII’s absence and
tried to organize resistance against the French.
In November 1808 they had to move to Seville and
later to Cádiz and the constant defeats against the
French created a hostile environment against them,
but they made some important decisions:
- alliance with the United Kingdom in January 1809
to expel the French
- war tributes to finance the war
- they rejected to surrender in the spring of 1809.
- their most important decision was the call of
representative and extraordinary Cortes in
January 1810:
▪ 296 deputies elected by indirect census
suffrage in the third degree
▪ The colonies should also send deputies
Once they sent the rules for the elections, the
Supreme Central Board ceded power to a five
member Regency, which tried to boycott the
meeting of the Cortes, but finally had to accept them
due to the pressure of the elected deputies who
arrived in Cádiz. General Castaños, winner at Bailén and
first president of the Council of Regency
The Supreme Central Board in Cádiz, by Ramón
Rodríguez Barcaza, reflects the moment when
they rejected to surrender to the French.
28. The war situation didn’t allow
the elections in many provinces
and many deputies had to be
replaced by substitutes among
the inhabitants of the city of
Cádiz (a cosmopolitan city, due
to trade with the Indies, with
many bourgeois). The Cortes
finally met in the Island of León
(San Fernando) on the 24th
September 1810. There were
representatives of the three
estates
THE CORTES OF CÁDIZ
Island of León
29. CONSTITUTION OF 1812: first Constitution in Spanish history, included
the main principles of liberalism, but without totally breaking with the past
OTHER
LAWS
- abolition of lordships (only the jurisdictional lordships, but
the territorial lordships became private property and the old
feudal contracts became private contracts)
- suppression of the Inquisition, the guilds and the Mesta
- press law (it didn’t eliminate previous censorship)
EXTRAORDINARY
CORTES (Sept
1810 - Sept 1813)
However, the war situation made the implementation of their decisions very
difficult.
ORDINARY CORTES
(Sept 1813- May
1814)
- Formed by a majority of deputies opposed to the reforms, because the
electoral system favoured the election of many members of the clergy and
absolutists, who wanted to eliminate everything done in Cádiz.
- When the French started retiring, the Cortes moved to Madrid in January
1814 and waited for Ferdinand VII’s comeback.

EXTRAORDINARY CORTES (SEPT 1810- SEPT 1813)
They met in the Island of León until January
1811, when the war situation obliged them to
move to Cádiz. In the first meeting they assumed
sovereignty and the legislative power (letting
the executive power for the Regency), declared
themselves the legitimate representatives of
the nation in the king’s absence and decided to
write a Constitution.
The first debates showed the different ideas
about how to organize the country:
- the deputies who wanted to preserve
absolutism were called serviles
- those who wanted reforms to eliminate the
Ancien Régime and defended freedom of the
press were called liberals.

31. CONSTITUTION OF 1812
• 384 articles, grouped in 10 titles, including the
proceeding for the elections
• Inclusion of the main principles of political
liberalism (division of powers, national
sovereignty…) without totally breaking with the
past. For example, the Catholic religion was the
only one allowed. All the other religions were
forbidden (reflection of the important number of
representatives of the clergy in the Cortes)
• Recognition of rights like freedom, equality of all
the citizens, freedom of speech, right of property
• National sovereignty (including the citizens of the
colonies) and it doesn’t belong to any person or
family. The Nation has the exclusive right of
writing the laws, which have to respect the
citizens’ rights
• Type of State: parliamentary monarchy. The king
was the head of State, but his power was limited
and submitted to the law
Proclamation of the 1812 Constitution, painting
by Salvador Viniegra. The Constitution was
promulgated on the 19th March 1812, to coincide
with the day Ferdinand VII had been proclaimed
King. That’s why the Constitution was popularly
known as “la Pepa”
32. • Division of powers:
• executive for the king, but his power was limited by
the Cortes and his actions had to be ratified by the
ministers
• legislative for the Cortes with the king: one only
chamber, elected by indirect universal male
suffrage in the 4th degree, which made the laws,
controlled the ministers and prepared the budget.
The king had right of suspensive veto for two times
and had to sanction and promulgate the laws
• judicial for independent courts of justice
• Distribution of taxes according to people’s incomes
• Compulsory primary school
• Decentralized organization of the State: provinces ruled
by governors elected by the king and provincial councils
(Diputaciones Provinciales) and municipalities elected by
the citizens
• Creation of a national army, compulsory military service
and a volunteer militia for the defense of the country
(National Militia)
33. Allegory of Ferdinand VII’s comeback to Spain
General Elío
Manifesto of the Persians
RESTORATION OF ABSOLUTISM
After the signature of the Treaty of Valençay, Ferdinand VII delayed his arrival in Madrid and didn’t
follow the route the Cortes had designed for him. In Valencia he received a group of absolutists
deputies who gave him a text (Manifesto of the Persians, signed by 69 reactionary deputies) asking
him to restore absolutism and eliminate all the Cortes had done during the war. On the 4th May 1814
Ferdinand VII issued a decree declaring all the decisions made by the Cortes null and void and
General Elío gave a coup d’ État supported by the British, which re-established absolutism. On the
13th May he arrived in Madrid and persecution and arrest of the liberals started.
34. - ABSOLUTIST SEXENIO (1814-1820)
- LIBERAL TRIENNIUM (1820-1823)
- OMINOUS DECADE (1823-1833)
Ferdinand VII was called the Desired. His reign
can be divided into three periods:
35. ABSOLUTIST SEXENIO (1814-1820)
- Almost all the old institutions of the Ancien Régime
were restored, favoured by the international
context (Congress of Vienna and Restoration).
- Complicated internal situation: country devastated
after the war, economic system destroyed, pro-
independence revolts in many American colonies
and treasury was exhausted.
- Governments unable to make the necessary
decisions to improve the situation
- The king was surrounded by a clique of his friends
who took advantage of the situation to make
personal business.
- The only remarkable decision of this period was
the tax reform designed by Minister Martín de
Garay (1817), who proposed a unique contribution,
but the complicated tax collection system made it
fail and increased the peasants’ discontent.

Repression against the liberals was hard.
Many of them took up exile, others took
refuge in secret societies and conspiracies to
restore the constitutional regime soon
started. There were several attempts to
restore liberalism (pronunciamientos),
directed by members of the army or former
guerrilla fighters (set aside for the return of
the old officers’ system in the army, based on
privilege). Sometimes uprisings had civil
support as well. The most important
pronunciamientos:
- Espoz and Mina in Pamplona (1814)
- Porlier in La Coruña (1815)
- the Triangle Conspiracy (1816)
- generals Lacy and Milans del Bosch in
Catalonia and Juan Van Halen in Granada
(1817)
- Bertrán de Lis and Vidal in Valencia
(1819).
All of them failed.
37. On the 1st January 1820 Colonel Rafael
del Riego rose up in Cabezas de San
Juan (Seville) and proclaimed the
Constitution. Many soldiers who were
in Cádiz to embark to America joined
the revolt and Riego commanded them
across Andalusia for around three
months, without finding much support
among the population, but the
uprisings in other parts of the country
(Galicia, Zaragoza, Catalonia, Segovia,
Pamplona) finally led to the triumph of
the pronunciamiento. On the 7th
March 1820 Ferdinand VII, pressured
by the people, restored the 1812
Constitution and called elections
according to the system established in
Cádiz.

38. LIBERAL TRIENNIUM (1820-1823)
Three-year period during which the liberals were in
power and tried to legislate following the principles
of political liberalism. Their main enemies were the
king (who used his veto power and conspired to
come back to absolutism), most of the nobles and
the Church (opposed to the reforms that attacked
their patrimony) and many peasants (damaged by
the liberal reforms that obliged them to adapt to the
rules of a monetary and free market economy).
Division of the liberals:
o The moderates or doceañistas, like Argüelles, Martínez de la Rosa or the Count of Toreno,
who had participated in the Cortes of Cádiz, defended cooperation with the monarch and
not breaking totally with the past. They were a majority during the first two years of the
Triennium and formed the governments appointed by Ferdinand VII.
o The exaltados (exalted) or veinteañistas, like Colonel Riego, General Evaristo San Miguel,
José María Calatrava or Juan Álvarez Mendizábal, wanted reforms and believed that the king
had to be subordinated to the Cortes. Their main support came from cities, the youngest
officers of the army and the National Militia. They were in charge of the government in the
last year of the Triennium.

39. - Restoration of most of the Cortes of Cádiz
reforms
- New reforms to eliminate the Ancien Régime:
suppression of the jurisdictional lordships and
majorats, dissolution of monastic orders and
confiscation of their properties to sell them at
public auction to reduce the State deficit,
elimination of the Inquisition, reduction of the tithe
to 5%, creation of the National Militia, freedom of
press, abolition of guilds, reorganization of the
army, ordinance about education (divided into three
levels: primary school, which had to be free
universal, secondary school and university studies),
administrative division of the State into 52
provinces… All these reforms had the purpose of
modernizing the country and allowing the
development of free market economy. The liberal
governments also tried to recover the control over
the American colonies, offering them more
participation in the Cortes, but their attempts failed
and the independence process went on.

40. - Ferdinand VII tried to obstruct the government using
his veto right and appointing governments formed by
moderate liberals (Bardají, Martínez de la Rosa).
- Absolutist parties rose up in some parts of the
country (Catalonia, Navarre, the Maestrazgo
Mountains) and controlled wide areas of the country,
establishing an absolutist regency in the Seu d’Urgell
(pretexting that the king was abducted by the
liberals).
- In July 1822 there was also a failed coup d’État
organized by the monarch, with the cooperation of
the royal guard, stopped by the National Militia.
- Disagreements and confrontations between the
liberals. In 1822 Martínez de la Rosa’s government
lost the confidence of the Cortes, there were new
elections won by the exaltados and the king had to
appoint a government presided by Evaristo San
Miguel, who tried to eliminate the absolutist theat.

41. The end of the Liberal Triennium came
from a foreign intervention. In the
Congress of Verona (October 1822), the
Holy Alliance decided to put pressure on
the Spanish liberal government to oblige
them to restore Ferdinand VII’s power.
As the liberal government rejected their
demands, they sent an army from
France, the Hundred Thousand Sons of
Saint Louis (around 92,000 soldiers),
commanded by the Duke of Angouleme.
They invaded the country in April 1823
and didn’t find much resistance.

(obliged to go with them) fled from Madrid
and took refuge in Seville first and in Cádiz
later. The French army sieged Cádiz and as
the government didn’t have any other options
to escape or receive help, on the 30th
September 1823 they decided to set
Ferdinand VII free under the promise of not
taking retaliation against them. But once he
joined the Duke of Angouleme he restored
absolutism and ordered the arrest and
persecution of all the liberals.

43. OMINOUS DECADE (1823-1833)
- Return to absolutism and extreme
repression against the liberals
- Creation of the Voluntarios Realistas,
absolutist militia in order to defend the
regime against further liberal uprisings.
- But the complicated economic situation
and the definitive loss of the American
colonies (except Cuba and Puerto Rico)
obliged the government to adopt a more
moderate and realistic policy and some
decisions were made to attract the
industrial and financial bourgeoisie of the
main cities: non- restoration of the
Inquisition, creation of the Police corps to
keep public order. But in other fields, like
education, reaction was predominant

44. DEFINITIVE LOSS OF THE AMERICAN COLONIES
The independence process had started in
1808 due to the power vacuum during the
Peninsular War accelerated and generalized
after 1814.
The Spanish governments tried to recover
the control of the colonies, sending around
45,000 soldiers there, but after their defeat
in the Battle of Ayacucho (Perú) in 1824, all
the territories except Cuba and Puerto Rico
became independent republics.
The loss of the American Empire meant a
big economic commotion for Spain.
45. ABSOLUTIST OPPOSITION
Even if reforms were so limited, an extremist party was
formed around Carlos María Isidro, Ferdinand VII’s
brother. They were called the realistas (royalists) or
apostólicos and thought that Ferdinand VII’s absolutism
was weakening and the liberal threat demanded more
serious actions against its supporters. They promoted
several uprisings and conspiracies against Ferdinand VII.
The most serious ones were:
o 1825: Marshall Bessières rose up demanding a
change in the government, the suppression of the
police and the re-establisment of the Inquisition. He
was arrested and executed.
o 1827: Revolt of the Malcontents or Agraviados
(Offended) in Catalonia: their motto was “!Viva
Carlos V, viva la Inquisición!”. They attracted many
peasants affected by the low prices of agricultural
products and the worsening of their lives and formed
an army of around 30,000 men, who were able to
control many Catalan cities and established a Board
in Manresa that proclaimed Carlos Mª Isidro king.
The revolt was finally repressed. Execution of the Malcontents in front of the
Citadel in Barcelona, 1827

46. There were several liberal uprisings:
o 1824: Colonel Francisco Valdés in Tarifa,
supported by captain Pablo Iglesias in Almería
(Expedición de los coloraos). They failed. Valdés
fled to Tánger and Iglesias was executed
o 1826: Colonel Antonio Fernández Baztán and
his brother in Guardamar del Segura also failed.
o 1830: after the 1830 revolution in France,
several failed attempts of invasion of Spain
o 1831: General Torrijos tried to invade Andalusia
with a small group in order to start an uprising
to restore liberalism, but they were cheated,
captured and shot on a beach in Málaga.
Repression against the liberals increased after the
1830 revolution in France. Universities were closed
for two years and persecution against the liberals
led to situations like Mariana de Pineda’s
execution, for having embroidered a flag with the
motto “Libertad, igualdad, ley”.

of Naples, Maria Isabel of Braganza, Maria
Josefa Amalia of Saxony and Maria Christina
of Bourbon-Two Sicilies
SUCCESSION PROBLEM
Ferdinand VII had got married four times, but as he
didn’t have children from his first three marriages,
when he married his young niece Maria Christina of
Naples- Two Sicilies, he decided to clarify succession
and in March 1830 issued the Pragmatic Sanction
the Cortes had approved in 1789. This law allowed
women to reign in Spain, as had been traditional in
Castile from the Middle Ages. In October 1830 their
first daughter, Isabella, was born and became the
heiress to the throne. But this was not accepted by
the apostólicos, who supported Carlos Mª Isidro.

Salic Law, finally issued in 1830
Carlos Mª Isidro
48. In September 1832 Ferdinand VII fell ill and
Carlos Mª Isidro’s supporters put pressure on
the king and convinced him to annul the
Pragmatic Sanction and designate Carlos as
heir. But when Ferdinand VII recovered, he
annulled the decree and made some liberalizing
decisions (an amnesty that allowed the return
of 10,000 exiled, the replacement of extremist
officers in the army for other loyal officers).
Carlos Mª Isidro left Spain, went to Portugal
and didn’t swear allegiance to Isabella as
heiress, he rejected to come back and do it,
claiming to be the legitimate heir to the throne.
When Ferdinand VII died in September 1833,
his testament appointed Maria Christina Regent
and Governess during Isabella II’s minority. This
meant the beginning of the First Carlist War
(1833-1840).
