Dom Miguel I was the King of Portugal between 1828 and 1834, the seventh child and third son of King João VI
and queen Carlota Joaquina of Spain. Following his exile as a result of his actions in the Abrilada, Miguel returned
to Portugal as regent to his niece Queen Maria II of Portugal, and potential royal consort. As regent, he claimed
the Portuguese throne in his own right, since according to the so-called Fundamental Laws of the Kingdom his
older brother Pedro IV and his daughter had lost their rights.
