Note

Alfonso XII (1857-85), king of Spain (1870-85), born in Madrid. His
mother, Queen Isabella II, took him with her from Spain when she was
deposed in the Revolution of 1868. He was educated in Paris, Vienna, and
Sandhurst, England. Isabella formally abdicated in favor of her son in
1870, but he did not return to Spain to take up his royal duties until
1875, when the monarchist general Arsenio Mart?z de Campos (1831-1900)
summoned him to the throne. In 1876 Alfonso suppressed the last of the
Carlists that is, those who supported the claim of the descendants of Don
Carlos (1788-1855) to the Spanish throne. In the same year he ordered the
Cortes, the representative assembly, to draft a new constitution that
introduced a two-party system on the English model into Spanish politics.
Throughout his reign Alfonso was greatly influenced by his prime minister,
Antonio C?vas del Castillo (1828-97). His untimely Death was followed by
the Long, troubled regency of his second wife, Maria Christina of Austria
(1858-1929).
