| Summary: |
The reestablishment of the doceañista constitutional system in 1820 was inserted in a hostile context, both from the internal and the international perspective. In the Triennium there was a pronounced public order problem linked to the problems of banditry and the armed presence of the royalist dissent, which triggered a "war of parties", palpable at least since the end of 1820. This tried to generate an alternative absolutist State in the interior capable of defeating the liberal State militarily and politically, the result of which was the first of the 19th civil wars: the royalist insurrection of 1822. The attempt failed because the liberal State was not strong enough to eradicate the parties. However, despite the division of the constitutional ones, it did manage to avoid the formation of a royalist army with a traditional structure and prevented the appearance of "liberated zones" that could serve as its base. In the end, the open rupture between the King and the Cortes (March 1823) ended with the fiction inaugurated in March 1820: with this King there was no possible constitutional monarchy on which to rest both the constitutional system and the loyalty of the armed forces. |
