31 janv. 1891 - The revolt of January 31, 1891

Description:

The 31 January 1891 revolt was the first attempt by republicans to overthrow the monarchy in Portugal and establish the Republic in Portugal.
It took place in the city of Porto and it was triggered as a reaction to the government's yielding to the previous year's British Ultimatum.
Around three hundred civilians and soldiers barricaded themselves in the City Hall, but the municipal guard forced them to surrender.
