Brazil- 12 Oct 1822
Dom Pedro, 24-year-old son and heir to King John VI, today declaired himself constitutional emperor of Brazil.
Once seen as a dissolute young man, Pedro has come to symbolize the nation’s hope for independence in the face of Lisbon’s efforts to reduce Brazil once again to the status of a dependent colony.
Last month Portugal annulled all his acts. His response was simple: “The hour has come! Independence or death!”
