From October 17, 1840 to July 23, 1843, the regency was assumed by General Baldomero Espartero, who was finally also forced to leave office (due to the Bombardment of Barcelona in 1842, which meant the loss of his political support ). From that day on, the provisional government exercised the regency until, once again, the Cortes decided to bring forward the queen's coming of age by one year, scheduled for when she was 14 years old. Thus, on November 8, 1843, Elizabeth II was declared of legal age by 193 votes in favor compared to 16 against. Two days later, Isabel II swore the Constitution in solemn session before the Cortes.]]> 2020-12-06 10:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/991324250 juliarodriguezfernandez https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/991328479 When Isabel II was 16 years old, the Government arranged a marriage with her cousin, the infant Francisco de Asís de Borbón, Duke of Cádiz. The spouses were first cousins ​​by double means, since his father, the infant Francisco de Paula, was the brother of Fernando VII, while his mother, Luisa Carlota de Borbón-Dos Sicilias, was the sister of the regent María Cristina. The marriage broke down very soon, and she would never be happy. The Queen's wedding was a matter of national and international importance, since the different European countries maneuvered so that the nationality of the new king did not harm their alliances and interests. There were numerous candidates rejected mostly by different pressure groups. The wedding took place on October 10, 1846 in the Throne Room of the Royal Palace in Madrid, the same day that Isabel turned 16. It was a double wedding, since at the same time his sister, the Infanta Luisa Fernanda de Borbón, married Prince Antonio de Orleans, Duke of Montpensier and the youngest son of Louis Philippe I of France.]]> 2020-12-06 10:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/991328479 juliarodriguezfernandez https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/993666606

In the field of the fight for democratic freedoms, his reign was a failure; Institutions were also distorted and electoral corruption spread. No party that had organized elections lost them in that period. If there were changes, it was due to the interference of a military caste that changed governments based on pronouncements or coups of one sign or another. According to authors such as Jesús Cruz, the reign of Isabel II could be classified as one of the most corrupt in the history of Spain.
Easily manipulated by her ministers and by the religious "clique" of the court (composed mainly of Father Claret, her confessor, Father Fulgencio, her husband's confessor, and Sister Patrocinio), the Queen frequently interfered in the politics of the nation (on one occasion she ran for president of the government), which made her unpopular among politicians and ended up causing her end when leading to the Revolution of 1868. This was mainly contributed by episodes such as the night of San Daniel (April 10, 1865): in moments of enormous economic crisis, the queen, whose personal generosity was beyond controversy, ordered that real estate assets be alienated for the nation's relief; The Republican leader, Emilio Castelar, in the newspaper article titled El trago, declared that in reality Elizabeth II, burdened by debts, reserved 25% of the proceeds from the sale of assets that, for the most part, were not hers , but of the nation; the government ordered the dismissal and expulsion of Castelar as a university professor, which also led to the resignation of the rector of the Central University; Student demonstrations in support of those resigned culminated on April 10 with the veteran Civil Guard in the street: eleven dead and 193 injured, including passers-by elderly, women and children.]]> 2020-12-07 12:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/993672195 juliarodriguezfernandez https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/993685633 2020-12-07 12:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/993685633 juliarodriguezfernandez https://padlet.com/juliarodriguezfernandez/ijme3vxajr6ztbl/wish/993694207 The Queen of sad destinies, as she has also been called, had to face the Revolution of 1868 (known as La Gloriosa), which forced her to leave Spain by train from San Sebastián where she spent the summer. Isabel II went into exile in France, where she received the protection of Napoleon III and Eugenia de Montijo, and established her residence in the Parisian Palace of Castile until her death; on June 25, 1870, he abdicated in Paris in favor of his son, the future Alfonso XII. Meanwhile, thanks to the support of various groups in the government, Prince Amadeo of Savoy, a member of the Italian royal family, was chosen to replace her on the throne as Amadeo I of Spain; Amadeo was the son of Víctor Manuel II, King of Italy since 1861 and belonging to the House of Savoy, and of María Adelaida of Austria (great-granddaughter of Carlos III of Spain).
