  1. Spanish?Portuguese treaty

    The Spanish Portuguese treaty of 1750 or Treaty of Madrid was a document signed by Ferdinand VI of Spain and John V of Portugal on January 13, 1750, concerning their empires and status of their territories in what is now Brazil . Earlier treaties authored by both countries, and as mediated by the Catholic Church of Rome , stipulated that the Portuguese empire in South America could extend no farther west than the 46th meridian west 46th meridian . Had this treaty remained unchanged, the Spanish would have held both what is today the city of S o Paulo and all land to the west and south. Thus, Brazil would be only a fraction of its present day size. The Treaty of Madrid was based on the principle of Roman law Uti possidetis Uti possidetis, ita possideatis who owns by fact owns by right and regulated the actual situation, allowing further expansion of the Portuguese Empire at the expense of the Empire of Spain. This expansion eventually led to the formation of the Empire of Brazil . The treaty also stipulated that Spain would receive the Sacramento Colony and Portugal the Misiones Orientales . These were seven independent Jesuit missions of the upper Uruguay River that resisted Portuguese rule in what is now known as the Guarani War Guerra Guaran tica . In their attempt to mark the new frontier, Spain and Portugal combined armies and crushed the resistance. The movie The Mission 1986 film The Mission is based on these events. The Guarani War occurred between 1754 and 1756. After the war, the Treaty of 1750 was repealed by the Treaty of El Pardo 1761 Treaty of El Pardo , signed between both countries in 1761.

    Image ORIENTALES.png thumb 300px right the Banda Oriental The Spanish Portuguese War between 1735 1737 was fought over the Banda Oriental , roughly present day Uruguay. At that time, this part of South America was sparsely populated and was on the border between Portuguese Colonial Brazil and the Spanish Governorate of the R o de la Plata . br Spain claimed the area based on the Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494, but Portugal had founded the first city there, the Sacramento Colony , in 1680 . Spain had taken the city twice, in 1681 and in 1705, but had had to give it back to the Portuguese by the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713. The following years saw an expansion of the Portuguese settlements around the Sacramento Colony, in a radius of up to 120 km. br As a reaction, capit n general of R o de la Plata Bruno Mauricio de Zabala had founded Montevideo on December 24, 1726 to prevent further expansion. But the Portuguese trade made the Spanish suffer, as they were still compelled to trade with Spain over the Viceroyalty of Peru , who imposed heavy taxes.

  1. Spanish?Portuguese War (1761?1763)

    Campaignbox Spanish Portuguese War 1761 1763 The Spanish Portuguese War between 1761 and 1763 was fought as part of the Seven Years War . Because no major battles were fought, even though there were numerous movements of troops, the war is known in the Portuguese history as the Fantastic War Portuguese language Portuguese and Spanish language Spanish Guerra Fant stica , or War of the Pacte de Famille . When the Seven Years War between France and Great Britain started in 1756, Spain and Portugal remained neutral. Their differences in South America had been settled by the Treaty of Madrid 1750 . King Ferdinand VI of Spain s prime minister Ricardo Wall opposed the French party who wanted to enter the war on the side of France. Everything changed when Ferdinand VI died in 1759 and was succeeded by his younger brother Charles III of Spain . Charles was more ambitious than his melancholic brother. One of the main objects of Charles s policy was the survival of Spain as a colonial power and, therefore, as a power to be reckoned with in Europe. By 1761 France looked like losing the war against Great Britain. Furthermore, Spain suffered from attacks by English privateers in Spanish waters, and claimed compensation. Fearing that a British victory over France in the Seven Years War would upset the balance of colonial power, he signed the Pacte de famille Family Compact with France both countries were ruled by branches of the House of Bourbon Bourbon family in August 1761.
