The Empire of Brazil remained the only monarchical nation in South America in the 20th century, after a military coup failed to ensure a republic in November 15, 1889. The leaders of the coup, chiefly Benjamin Constant and Lopes Trovão, were arrested and sentenced to life prison. The commander of the Army, Marshal Deodoro da Fonseca (a staunch monarchist), instead of proclaiming the Republic was convinced to take the post of Chairman of Council of Ministers (head of Government, prime minister). He would resign the following year and was replaced by Rui Barbosa, a brilliant orator and diplomat, and a moderate republican turned loyalist.

  • The Empire of Brazil remained the only monarchical nation in South America in the 20th century, after a military coup failed to ensure a republic in November 15, 1889. The leaders of the coup, chiefly Benjamin Constant and Lopes Trovão, were arrested and sentenced to life prison. The commander of the Army, Marshal Deodoro da Fonseca (a staunch monarchist), instead of proclaiming the Republic was convinced to take the post of Chairman of Council of Ministers (head of Government, prime minister). He would resign the following year and was replaced by Rui Barbosa, a brilliant orator and diplomat, and a moderate republican turned loyalist. After the natural death of Emperor Pedro II in 1898, his heiress Isabel I takes the crown as Empress. Her French husband Gaston, Count of Eu, is unpopular and threatened by radical activists, especially anarchists. A few extreme republicans, called "jacobinos", still remain, planning to overthrow Empress Isabel at any time. But their lack of support in society and among the Navy has drastically reduced their power since then. Taking the 1889 coup as point of divergence, the following text and data apply to alternative timeline as of 1910.
