Princess Maria Amélia of Brazil

Artist: Friedrich Dürck (German, 1809–1884)

Date: 19th Century

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Imperial Museum of Brazil, Petrópolis Imperial Palace, Brazil

Princess Maria Amélia of Brazil

Dona Maria Amélia (1 December 1831 – 4 February 1853) was a princess of the Empire of Brazil and a member of the Brazilian branch of the House of Braganza. Her parents were Emperor Dom Pedro I, the first ruler of Brazil, and Amélie of Leuchtenberg. The only child of her father's second marriage, Maria Amélia was born in France after Pedro I abdicated the Brazilian throne in favor of his son Dom Pedro II. Before Maria Amélia was a month old, Pedro I went to Portugal to restore the crown of the eldest daughter of his first marriage, Dona Maria II. He fought a successful war against his brother Miguel I, who had usurped Maria II's throne.

Right I don't often make fandom posts but I do think that a Green victory in The House of the Dragon could have conceivably resulted in an aesthetic rather close to that of Imperial Brazil.

#I am honestly quite disappointed at the lack of sceptres in Martin's work #it's just crowns and swords for the most part #let them have funny sticks #House of the Dragon #Sunfyre #Empire of Brazil #House of Braganza #Team Green #HOTD

Ending today with the other great Emancipation War of the 1840s to 1880:

Ending today with the other great emancipation war of the time, the one that unraveled slavery in Brazil. The Paraguayan War/War of the Triple Alliance was one of the largest, bloodiest wars in South America. It was also the war that was so bloody the Empire of Brazil was forced to recruit Black troops to bail it out of a war larger and costlier than it ever dared to anticipate, and the price of its ultimate victory in the fighting that followed, fighting that laid waste to Paraguay on a Biblical scale, and where the price of winning this war brought down both slavery and the Empire of Brazil with it.

Your video talk reminded me of an archeologist guy that saw so much mis/disinformation and conspiracy theories being peddled on tiktok, that he started to make videos debunking all that bullshit, and ended up kinda making a career out of it. Milo Rossi, Miniminuteman on YouTube, he's hilarious.

lmao know exactly who he is, he's so goddamn funny, he doesn't even debunk shit, he just clowns on conspiracy theorists now which honestly is the way to do it

my whole reaction yesterday came from a video I came across some little boy who was talking about a "great book he read" and its a book Ive seen, never felt inclined to even touch it, smelt of shit to me in the distance, it's "as razoes do atraso portugues" or something like that by some economist (economists always think they know history) and this little dude summarised the book and its apparently... bc of the MArquis of Pombal. And he did this in the Gen Z tone which made it even more obnoxious "yeah, the guy we were taught at school was so awesome! that guy!" what school? what school taught you that? "he ruined our economy because he made sure the gold found in brasil [which had been pouring in since before he was minister of jack shit] was misapropriated and then he kicked out the jesuits who were responsible for education" absolutely no nuance on matter, one of the most interesting, most controversial figures in our history that I always describe to my clients as "one step forward, two steps back" a guy who is described by Brazilian historian Laurentino Gomes, who dead describes XVIII portugal as the most backwards and delayed european nation (because it WAS), as the only moment of progress in our history because how hard can it be to grasp that a man who was raised on the Republic of Letters, who was taught among some of the brightest Liberal minds of Austria and England was responsible for some of the most incredible progress in Portugal AND YET was also responsible for some of the greatest set backs due to his paranoia and dictatorial ruling as Prime Minister? Where is nuance?

The dude in the video also said that, according to the book, the Marquis of Pombal was responsible for implementing Absolutism... is John V a joke to us? Do you think absolutism sprouted from Pombal's ass one day when he went to take a shit in Rua do Século after the earthquake? Do you think we call Manuel I proto-absolutist because it's just a fun little quirky thing historians dug out of their sphincter?

Why do yall think the medallion with his face in Commerce Square is there with the completely wrong that, something like 1838?

Did people lose their ability to think?

Stop reading history books written by economists. I am a fair believer than anyone can become a historian so long as they learn the methodology and digs into the sources (I'm not a historian myself, I'm an art historian) but economists are doomed to fail man, fuck them

#Also go read Laurentino Gomes to get a good understanding of Brazil during the XVIII empire #cause that's some shit we really need to fucking learn. also yes thta's my reaqding of the moment lmfao #also the book apprently states we're the most delayed western european nation #which is so debatable #and somethign only a right wing economist could claim
