The Lisbon Regicide

On February 1, 1908, the political fortunes of Portugal changed forever.  The royal family was returning to Lisbon, traveling in an open horse-drawn carriage.  While they were traveling, in broad daylight, and in front of dozens of witnesses, two radicals gunned down both the king and the heir apparent, throwing the Portuguese monarchy into chaos.  The effect of what happened almost 120 years ago can still be felt today.
