>Charles XIV John (Swedish: Karl XIV Johan; 26 January 1763 – 8 March 1844) was King of Sweden and Norway from 1818 until his death in 1844 and the first monarch of the Bernadotte dynasty. In Norway, he is known as Charles III John (Norwegian: Karl III Johan); before he became royalty in Sweden, his name was Jean-Baptiste Jules Bernadotte. During the Napoleonic Wars, he participated in several battles as a Marshal of France>Born in Pau in the region of southern France known as Béarn, Bernadotte joined the French Royal Army in 1780. Following the outbreak of the French Revolution, he demonstrated great military talent, rising rapidly through the ranks and becoming a brigadier general by 1794. He served with distinction in Italy and Germany, and was briefly Minister of War. His relationship with Napoleon was turbulent; nevertheless, Napoleon named him a Marshal of the Empire on the proclamation of the French Empire. Bernadotte played a significant role in the French victory at Austerlitz, and was made Prince of Pontecorvo as a reward. His marriage to Désirée Clary, whose sister was married to Joseph Bonaparte, made Bernadotte a member of the extended Imperial family>The current king of Sweden, Carl XVI Gustaf, is a direct descendant of Charles XIV John>Carl XVI Gustaf (Carl Gustaf Folke Hubertus; born 30 April 1946) is King of Sweden since 15 September 1973. Having reigned for 52 years, he is the longest-reigning monarch in Swedish history and the second longest-serving current head of state

>>18515284To make them even more angry: It was the French who made the South Americans We Wuzzing Meds.>Latin America is a geographical region where Spanish or Portuguese is the national language with a common culture, and tradition. As a whole, it can be traced back to the 1830s, in the writing of the French Saint-Simonian Michel Chevalier, who postulated that a part of the Americas was inhabited by people of a "Latin race", and that it could, therefore, ally itself with "Latin Europe", ultimately overlapping the Latin Church, in a struggle with "Teutonic Europe" and "Anglo-Saxon America" with its Anglo-Saxonism, as well as "Slavic Europe" with its Pan-Slavism>The term Latin America was first introduced in 1856 at a conference named Initiative of the Americas: Idea for a Federal Congress of the Republics (Iniciativa de la América. Idea de un Congreso Federal de las Repúblicas), at Paris. Chilean politician Francisco Bilbao coined the term to refer to countries sharing cultural and linguistic heritage. It gained further prominence during the 1860s under the rule of Napoleon III, whose government sought to justify France's intervention in the Second Mexican Empire>The term "Latin America" was used by the French Empire under Napoleon III during its invasion of Mexico (1863-1867) as a way to include France among the countries with influence in the Americas and exclude the Anglo-Saxons

>>18515451To annoy a certain Italian here, they were also the ones who got whites into African religions.>Kardecist spiritism, also known as Kardecism or Spiritism, is a reincarnationist and spiritualist doctrine established in France in the mid-19th century by writer and educator Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail (known by his pen name Allan Kardec). Kardec considered his doctrine to derive from a Christian perspective>According to the International Spiritist Council, spiritism is present in 36 countries, with over 13 million followers, being most widespread in Brazil, where it has approximately 3.3 million followers, according to the data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, and over 30 million sympathizers, according to the Brazilian Spiritist Federation. Spiritists are also known for influencing and promoting a movement of social assistance and philanthropy. The doctrine was influenced by utopian socialism, mesmerism and positivism and had a strong influence on various other religious currents, such as Santería, Umbanda, and the New Age movements>Umbanda is the largest religion of African origin in Brazil, characterized by its unique synthesis of African deities, Catholic saints, and Indigenous traditions. The formalized faith emerged in the early 1900s and is generally considered to have been founded by Zélio Fernandino de Moraes, a young white man associated with the Spiritist movement. Zélio reportedly incorporated the spirit of an Indigenous Brazilian to establish the religion's core practice of mediumship and charity
>brazilians be like
>>18515457>Espiritismo (Portuguese and Spanish for "Spiritism") is a Latin American and Caribbean belief system that evolved and less evolved spirits can affect health, luck and other aspects of human life>The phenomenon and broad range of beliefs defined as "Espiritismo" originated with the ideas of French Spiritism defined by Allan Kardec. His Spiritism would become popular in Latin America and influence existing religions as well as forming Africanized traditions of Espiritismo itself. It would become especially prominent in Brazil, Cuba, and Puerto Rico. Scientific White Table Espiritismo would develop from a loose understanding of Kardec's philosophy. During the Ten Years' War in Cuba much of the population was in panic and grieving from the loss of loved ones. White Cubans were able to alleviate some of their emotional pain by turning to Espiritismo which allowed them to commune with dead loved ones>White espiritistas would ask their Congolese slaves to guide them in Espiritismo de Cordon ceremonies. In the early 1800s, Espiritismo would gain popularity in Puerto Rico because of the populace's rejection of Spanish hegemony and Spiritism's condemnation by the colonial Catholic Church>Originally brought to the country from Puerto Ricans studying in Europe the White Table Espiritismo practiced by the upperclass would help evolve a more creolized Indigenous Espiritismo among the underclass. Researcher Marta Moreno Vega suggests Puerto Rican Espiritismo became popular as a way to mimic ancestor veneration in Kongo religion>Espiritismo in Cuba would eventually mix with other local African elements and produce Espiritismo Cruzao which would gain in popularity in the early 1900s. By the Cuban Revolution espiritista practices became banned and pushed underground but still retain a presence in Cuban society to this day
>>18515451>>18515457>>18515468Fun Fact: Yuliana Glinka, the woman who brought the Protocols of the Elders of Zion from France to Russia, participated in these Afro-Brazilian/Cuban religions.>In his book The Non-Existent Manuscript, Italian scholar Cesare G. De Michelis studies early Russian publications of the Protocols. The Protocols were first mentioned in the Russian press in April 1902, by the Saint Petersburg newspaper Novoye Vremya. The article was written by famous conservative publicist Mikhail Menshikov as a part of his regular series "Letters to Neighbors" and was titled "Plots against Humanity". The author described his meeting with a lady called Yuliana Glinka>Yuliana Dmitrievna Glinka (Russian: Юлиaнa Дмитpиeвнa Глинкa; 1844–1918) was a Russian occultist who became associated with theosophy and claims of a Jewish conspiracy>Glinka was born to a prominent family in Orel, Russia. Her grandfather, Colonel Fyodor Nikolaevich Glinka was investigated as a leader of "a secret society of mystics" during Prince Alexander Nikolayevich Golitsyn's investigation of masonic lodges following the Decembrist uprising of 1825. Fyodor Tolstoy testified that although he was a mystic he was "a loyal officer of the Empire">Yuliana's father, Dmitri Feodorovich Glinka, became a general and entered the diplomatic service. As a result, she spent time in Portugal and Brazil where her father was posted. She probably became interested in spiritualism while in Brazil. She lived in Rio de Janeiro, and at Petropolis, in the Serra dos Órgãos, home of Emperor Dom Pedro II of Brazil. With her father and sisters she traveled with Dom Pedro to Minas Gerais, visiting Ouro Preto and Diamantina, both very old cities with mystical associations>In Brazil, Yuliana became acquainted with Candomblé, a Brazilian version of Caribbean Santería. She also read about the Fox sisters and their encounters with "the Spirit World" in New York, in the United States
>>18515487Yuliana Glinka obtained the Protocols from a member of the Misraim Lodge, which was founded by the Italian Alessandro Cagliostro.>Justine Glinka (1836–1916), the daughter of Russian diplomat Dmitry Glinka (1808–1883), was endeavouring (in the early to mid-1880s) to serve her country (Russia) by obtaining political information in Paris, which she forwarded to General Orgevskii. In 1884 a Jewish Freemason named Joseph Schorst (alias of Théodore Joseph Schapiro) sold Justine a manuscript copy of the Protocols (written in French) for 2,500 francs. Schorst had smuggled this copy of the Protocols out of the archives of one of the Mizraïm Masonic Lodges in Paris. According to records in the archives of the Sûreté (French Secret Police), Schorst eventually fled to Egypt, where he was murdered. This manuscript of the Protocols then supposedly found its way (through a very convoluted and questionable route) into the hands of Sergei Nilus>The first documented French Misraïm lodge was established in Paris during 1814–1815 by the Bédarride brothers – Marc, Michel, and Joseph – who were middle-ranking officers in Napoleon's Italian army. Having brought the rite from Naples, they established what would become a significant presence in French Masonry. Historical research indicates the rite originated in the Republic of Venice, possibly stemming from a patent issued by Alessandro Cagliostro, before spreading through the Franco-Italian lodges of the Kingdom of Naples>Cagliostro was born Giuseppe Balsamo on June 8, 1743 in Albergheria, Palermo, Kingdom of Sicily
>>18515692>Several sources, including Cagliostro himself, state that he was descended from the Byzantine Greek family of Komnenos; specifically the Megas Komnenos branch, which ruled the Empire of Trebizond. Given that 'Balsamo' is a name of Greek origin, and that Albergheria was largely inhabited by people of Greek descent, Cagliostro claim to Greek ancestry seems valid>Albergheria was also known as the Jewish Quarter, which led later biographers to state that Cagliostro was at least part Jewish, despite the fact that he was from a Catholic familyIt's interesting that Kabbalah began to gain popularity in Europe during the Renaissance, which happened when Greek scholars fled to Italy during the Turkish Siege of Constantinople. Giovanni Pico della Mirandola and the Platonic Academy of Florence learned about the ancient Greco-Roman traditions from Gemistos Plethon through Marsilio Ficino and Kabbalah with the Flavius Mithridates (Samuel ben Nissim ibn Faraj), Yohanan Alemanno and Elia del Medigo.>Simon Duplay was the secretary of Robespierre and a friend of both Babeuf and Buonarroti. He kept a “green book” and recorded all the details he had witnessed. After Babeuf ’s son committed suicide, Duplay burned the book. Revolutionary historian James H. Billington laments the fact that Duplay, using his journal alone, could have provided the world with a definitive history of the beginnings of the revolutionary conspiracy>Duplay took up the work again, however, and managed to compile some 15,000 dossiers, from 1815-27, on conspiratorial organizations, secret societies and their members. After such a large-scale undertaking, Duplay came to the startling conclusion that “the key role in developing a revolutionary movement throughout France was played by the Misraim Masonic Association of Cagliostro, allegedly the original Egyptian Rite with 90 degrees of membership.”
what's any of this rambling got to do with magical black cubans and their worship
>>18515712It is curious that, just like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion from the Misraim Lodge of the Italian Cagliostro, the Simonini Letter, the first document about the Jewish-Masonic conspiracy, was also made in Italy. Perhaps those hateful northern French who thought that southern French people were an inferior Judaized race were right in this point.>The Simonini letter was a document sent to French author Augustin Barruel in 1806. Barruel had recently published a book claiming that a conspiracy had led to the French Revolution in 1797, when he received the letter from an author identifying himself as Jean-Baptiste Simonini. The letter was dated August 1, 1806 and Barruel received it in Paris on August 20 of the same year>The author, who claimed to be from Florence, Italy said he had infiltrated the Piedmont Jewish community by claiming to have been a baptized Jew who wanted to restore his connection with his ancestral "nation". The Jews, he said, revealed to him that both the Freemasons and the Illuminati were founded by them and that they were planning on taking over Europe. It is one of the earliest instances of the idea of a Judeo-Masonic conspiracy theory as well as conspiracy involving a cabal of Jews trying to take over the worldHow does an Italian obsessed with Afro-Cuban/Brazilian religions feel when he learns that the unification of his country was created by the same people that created Communism and other "Globohomo" things like... Racial Equality?>The League of the Just (German: Bund der Gerechten) or League of Justice was a masonic international revolutionary organization. It was founded in 1836 by branching off from its ancestor, the League of Outlaws, which had formed in Paris in 1834. The League of the Just was largely composed of German emigrant artisans
>>18515763>In 1847, the League of the Just merged with the Communist Correspondence Committee, an organization led by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, creating the Communist League. The new group tasked Marx and Engels with writing a political platform for itself. The resulting document was The Communist Manifesto>Jacob Venedey and Theodore Schuster founded the League of Outlaws in Paris in 1834. They modeled the organization closely after Philippe Buonarroti's vision of the "Universal Democratic Carbonari" as an egalitarian international revolutionary fellowship organization, perhaps the first of its kind. Its members were German emigrants. Schuster's 1834 pamphlet, Confession of faith of an outlaw has been suggested as the first vision of marginalized people joining together in a coming revolution>The Carbonari (lit.'charcoal burners') was an informal network of secret revolutionary societies active in Italy from about 1800 to 1831>Although it is not clear where they were established, they first came to prominence in the Kingdom of Naples during the Napoleonic Wars>They were a focus for those unhappy with the repressive political situation in Italy following 1815, especially in the south of the Italian Peninsula. Members of the Carbonari, and those influenced by them, took part in important events in the process of Italian unification (called the Risorgimento), especially the failed Revolution of 1820, and in the further development of Italian nationalism
>>18515772>Giuseppe Maria Garibaldi (/ˌɡærJˈbɑːldi/ GARR-ib-AHL-dee, Italian: [dʒuˈzɛppe ɡariˈbaldi] ;[note 1] 4 July 1807 – 2 June 1882) was an Italian general, revolutionary and republican. He contributed to the Unification of Italy (Risorgimento) and the creation of the Kingdom of Italy. He is considered to be one of Italy's "fathers of the fatherland", along with Camillo Benso di Cavour, King Victor Emmanuel II and Giuseppe Mazzini>In November 1833, Garibaldi met Mazzini in Genoa, starting a long relationship that later became troubled. He joined the Carbonari revolutionary association, and in February 1834 participated in a failed Mazzinian insurrection in Piedmont>The Ancient and Primitive Rite of Memphis-Misraïm was initially led by Giuseppe Garibaldi, the military leader of Italian unification, as its first Grand Hierophant, the rite developed an international presence under subsequent leaders including John Yarker (1902–1913) and Theodor Reuss (1913–1923)>At its peak, the League of Outlaws had about 100 members in Paris and 80 in Frankfurt am Main. At this time, Schuster focused his efforts on advocating for the unification of Germany and organized middle-class republicans into the League of Germans. As Schuster's and other key members' attention was focused on this work, the working class members of the Outlaws rallied around the leadership of Wilhelm Weitling. This group formed the League of the Just in Paris in 1836 as an offshoot from the League of Outlaws. The Outlaws dissipated in 1838 as their members prioritized other associations>Members of the League of the Just were German journeymen artisans, primarily tailors and woodworkers. Their stated goal was "the establishment of the Kingdom of God on Earth, based on the ideals of love of one's neighbor, equality and justice". This was also referred to by the League as the "new Jerusalem"
Hint: There's more than one person mocking you for worshiping magical black cubans, cleiton
>>18515795>The motto of the League of the Just was "All men are brothers". They have been described as followers of François-Noël Babeuf and as "utopian-communist". They were anticipating a social revolution, which one of their leaders, Karl Schapper, described as "the great resurrection day of the people." Friedrich Engels wrote dismissively of the League as essentially similar to other French secret societies except that it was German>Babeuf was perhaps unique among the major male figures of the French Revolution in his condemnation of colonialism, slavery and support for women's equality. Babeuf adopted the pseudonym "Gracchus" in homage to the Roman brothers Gaius and Tiberius Gracchus (known in English as Gracchi), who were tribunes of the plebeians in antiquity and fought bravely for agrarian reform to distribute land to the poorest citizens of the Roman Republic. Babeuf attacked the French colonial slave system in Haiti by saying “it is we alone who have transmitted into another hemisphere the terrible vices which degraded our own, and it seems that we are not inclined to abjure any of them and banish them from our own society except on the condition that we go and tarnish with them a land which hitherto had preserved, in its extreme simplicity, all the innocence and purity of the first ages.” When slavery was abolished by the Convention throughout all the territories ruled by France in 1794, including Haiti, Babeuf hailed the "benevolent decree which had broken the odious chains of our brothers the blacks">The latter league had a pyramidal structure inspired by the secret society of the Republican Carbonari, and shared ideas with Saint-Simon and Charles Fourier's utopian socialism. Their goal was to establish a "Social Republic" in the German states which would campaign for "freedom", "equality" and "civic virtue"
>>18515802>Many members of the League of the Just were involved in the 12 May 1839 Blanquist revolt. This led to the group being expelled by the French government. They proceeded to move to London. In 1840 in London they established a front organization called the Educational Society of German Workingmen. They continued to grow, until reaching a peak membership of over 1,000 people>In 1845 there was significant public debate within the League between Weitling, who advocated for an immediate uprising of workers, and Karl Schapper, who considered this premature, especially after his experience in the 1839 uprising. Schapper advocated for a longer campaign of popular education to prepare the masses for revolution>Karl Marx was hesitant about joining the League due to political disagreements, but was convinced by Joseph Moll that he could be more influential debating as a member from within the organization when Moll visited Brussels in January 1847. In June 1847, the League of the Just merged with the Communist Correspondence Committee to form the Communist League>Paul Lafargue (/ləˈfɑːrɡ/; French: [lafaʁg]; 15 January 1842 – 25 November 1911) was a Cuban-born French political writer, economist, journalist, literary critic, and activist. His best known work is The Right to Be Lazy. Born in Cuba to French and Creole parents, Lafargue spent most of his life in France, with periods in England and Spain>He was Karl Marx's son-in-law, having married his second daughter, Laura>His paternal grandmother was a mulatto from Saint-Domingue who had fled to Cuba following the Haitian Revolution. Lafargue's maternal grandparents were also refugees from Saint-Domingue>Lafargue has remarked that he was an "international[ist] of blood before [he] was one of ideology" and that "the blood of three oppressed races runs in my veins". When Daniel De Leon asked him about his origins, he promptly replied, "I am proudest of my Negro extraction."
>>18515819The first quote I'd like to give is from Engels in his text called "On The History of the Communist League". In this text he explictly mentions the role of secret societies in the French Revolution:https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/communist-league/1885hist.htm>In 1836 the most extreme, chiefly proletarian elements of the secret democratic-republican Outlaws’ League, which was founded by German refugees in Paris in 1834, split off and formed the new secret League of the Just. The parent League, in which only sleepy-headed elements à la Jakobus Venedey were left, soon fell asleep altogether; when in 1840 the police scented out a few sections in Germany, it was hardly even a shadow of its former self. The new League, on the contrary, developed comparatively rapidly. Originally it was a German outlier of the French worker-Communism, reminiscent of Babouvism and taking shape in Paris at about this time; community of goods was demanded as the necessary consequence of “equality”. The aims were those of the Parisian secret societies of the time: half propaganda association, half conspiracy, Paris, however, being always regarded as the central point of revolutionary action, although the preparation of occassional putsches in Germany was by no means excluded. But as Paris remained the decisive battleground, the League was at that time actually not much more than the German branch of the French secret societies, especially the Societe des saisons led by Blanqui and Barbes, with which a close connections was maintained. The French went into action on May 12, 1839; the sections of the League marched with them and thus were involved in the common defeatThis "League of the Just" was founded in the image of the Italian Carbonari, which we shall get into soon.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_the_Just
>>18515821Leon Trotsky has some things to say about the Carbonari too:https://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/1930/mylife/ch08.htm>It was during that period that I became interested in freemasonry. For several months, I avidly studied books on its history, books given to me by relatives and friends in the town. Why had the merchants, artists, bankers, officials, and lawyers, from the first quarter of the seventeenth century on, begun to call themselves masons and tried to recreate the ritual of the medieval guilds?>In the eighteenth century, freemasonry became expressive of a militant policy of enlightenment, as in the case of the Illuminati, who were the forerunners of revolution; on its left, it culminated in the Carbonari. Freemasons counted among their members both Louis XVI and the Dr. Guillotin who invented the guillotine. In southern Germany, freemasonry assumed an openly revolutionary character, whereas at the court of Catherine the Great it was a masquerade reflecting the aristocratic and bureaucratic hierarchy. A freemason Novikov was exiled to Siberia by a freemason empress
>>18515828Our next quote comes from a collaborative work by Marx and Engels:https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1845/holy-family/ch06_3_c.htm>Undeterred by this examination, the French Revolution gave rise to ideas which led beyond the ideas of the entire old world order. The revolutionary movement which began in 1789 in the Cercle Social, which in the middle of its course had as its chief representatives Leclerc and Roux, and which finally with Babeuf’s conspiracy was temporarily defeated, gave rise to the communist idea which Babeuf’s friend Buonarroti re-introduced in France after the Revolution of 1830. This idea, consistently developed, is the idea of the new world orderThis Cercle Social was Masonic:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Society_of_the_Friends_of_Truth>The Society of the Friends of Truth (Amis de la Verité), also known as the Social Club (French: Cercle social), was a French revolutionary organization founded in 1790. It was "a mixture of revolutionary political club, the Masonic Lodge, and a literary salon". It also published an influential revolutionary newspaper, the Mouth of Iron
>>18515829The same people responsible for the French Revolution and the Unification of Italy were also behind the ideologies of the Haitian Vodounist Revolutionaries and Cuban Spiritist/Santero/Palero independentists/castrists. This without even mentioning other things like the Independence of Hispanic America by Simon Bolivar, since he received refuge in Haiti.Italiantard on suicide watch, hue.>For over two centuries, canonical historiography has consolidated the paradigm that the French Revolution was an indigenous phenomenon, rooted in the Parisian Enlightenment and whose seminal date is the Storming of the Bastille in 1789. However, a reevaluation of neglected or deliberately suppressed primary sources from archives in Florence, Naples, and the Vatican requires a radical questioning of this narrative. Documentary anomalies and encrypted correspondence suggest that the events of 1789 were not a French creation, but rather the geopolitical transposition of a series of uprisings that occurred in the Italian Peninsula. This bold hypothesis points to the role of a transnational network—the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati—as a catalyst for this remarkable feat of historical engineering>The turning point of this research lies in the philological analysis of the Memoriale degli Tumulti Toscani, a 1791 manuscript attributed to the Dominican friar Domenico Barluzzi. Discovered in the Vatican Secret Archives and only recently released for consultation, the document chronicles in detail a series of popular uprisings in Tuscany and the Papal States, with descriptions of events, speeches, and urban guerrilla tactics that bear a disconcerting resemblance to the accounts that would emerge from France shortly thereafter. The Memoriale describes, for example, the invasion of a papal fortress by the people and the subsequent formation of a "Civic Council of Public Salvation"—terminology and structure that would later be immortalized by French historiography
>>18515852>The hypothesis of a "narrative transposition" gains strength when comparing Barluzzi's text with the dispatches of Parisian newspapers from the same period. The structural and lexical similarities are so pronounced that they rule out the possibility of coincidence, suggesting instead a deliberate translation and adaptation>Formally dissolved in Bavaria in 1785, the Order of the Illuminati, under the leadership of Adam Weishaupt, did not disappear. Reorganized cells found fertile ground in northern Italy, especially in Venice and Florence, where they operated under the guise of literary academies and Masonic lodges, such as the Società Ermetica Boreale. Composed of intellectuals, dissident nobles, and deist-oriented clergy, these circles orchestrated the manipulation of events>Historian Giuseppe Ardini, in his controversial work L'Architettura dell'Inganno (The Architecture of Deception), posits that "the transfer of the revolutionary epicenter from Italy to France served a dual purpose: first, it positioned the revolution at the heart of Europe's most influential cultural and military power, ensuring its spread; second, it allowed the Order to operate in the shadows, shaping events without attracting the attention that a revolution in fragmented Italy would surely bring from the Austrian and Spanish crowns." Protocols of secret meetings, found in Bologna, mention debates over the "assignment of historical roles" and the need to create "symbolic protagonists," citing names like "Massimiliano Rospigliosi"—whose phonetics and fabricated biography echo those of Maximilien Robespierre
>>18515852>>18515856Fun Fact: Brazilians supported by the French tried to bring Napoleon back to rule the Northeast of Brazil.>Antônio Gonçalves da Cruz (Recife, 1775 — Bolivia, 1833), better known as Cruz Cabugá, was a Brazilian revolutionary and ambassador, an important figure in the Pernambuco Revolution of 1817>He was born in Recife at the end of the 18th century. A merchant, he had a large circle of friends, inviting them to parties at his residence, with the intention of recruiting them for Freemasonry. He was a rich, single mulatto, a reveler and appreciator of life's pleasures. The nickname "Cabugá" was given to him in his father's goldsmith shop, due to a certain difficulty in his speech>The Pernambuco Revolution broke out against the Portuguese court, and the revolutionaries immediately set about consolidating and organizing the Republic. And, to preside over the Treasury, the merchant Antônio Gonçalves da Cruz Cabugá was appointed. The governor of Pernambuco, Caetano Pinto de Miranda Montenegro, was deposed and Cruz Cabugá was sent as ambassador to the United States in search of recognition of the new nation>The head of the French conspiracy in the US was the emperor's brother, Joseph Bonaparte, who had been King of Spain. Through contact with Cabugá, they saw in Brazil a possibility of putting their plans into practice>The mission to the United States had three main objectives, in addition to government recognition: to obtain money, to acquire weapons, and to make contact with French officers who were supporters of Napoleon Bonaparte>In his negotiations, he managed to have the American Charles Ray appointed Consul-General of the United States in Recife, which gave an official appearance to the recognition of the new nation>With the defeat of the revolutionary movement, Cruz Cabugá was sentenced to death, which is why he remained in the United States. After Brazil's independence in 1822, his death sentence was revoked
