With British support he drove Dom Miguel out of the country, and compelled him to sign the Capitulation of Evora-Monte (1834). Dom Pedro 1 66 A Short History of Europe died a few months later, and his daughter sat firmly on the throne of a Liberal monarchy. On the death of Ferdinand VII in 1 833, Spain ...was in a predica- ment like Portugal's, and, as in Portugal, her absolutist system came to an end in a war of succession. Ferdinand's fourth wife, Cristina of Naples, gave him two daughters, Isabella and Maria Louisa.
