Synopsis

In England, 1650- to 1690 was a period of turmoil, the aftermath of a Civil War, and a King's execution: Protectorate, Restoration, a King's expulsion and the Glorious Revolution - all within a working lifetime . In Portugal times were equally troubled. In 1640 the Portuguese had risen in revolt to recover their independence from Spain. The struggle continued for 29 precarious years. During this time England and Portugal, old allies, drew together in common enmity for Spain. The alliance culminated in the marriage of Charles II and Catherine of Braganza.
