Dona Maria II
Dona Maria II, known as the Educator Queen, was one of the most remarkable women in Portuguese history. Born in Brazil during the royal family’s exile, she was the daughter of Emperor Pedro I of Brazil (also King Pedro IV of Portugal) and Archduchess Leopoldina of Austria.
She ascended the throne at the age of 7, amid a complex political struggle between liberals and absolutists. After years of civil war, her father abdicated in her favor, and Maria was restored to the throne in 1834 as a symbol of constitutionalism and modernity.
Her reign was marked by efforts to stabilize the country, promote education, and strengthen constitutional monarchy. Despite facing political turbulence, she earned admiration for her resilience and commitment to reform.
Maria II married Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and had eleven children. She died tragically young, at the age of 34, during childbirth — leaving behind a legacy of progress and perseverance.
She is buried in the Pantheon of the Braganza Dynasty. Remembered for her intelligence, sense of duty, and devotion to her people, Dona Maria II helped shape the foundations of modern Portugal in a time of great change.
