La Gloriosa Revolución (The Legacy of the Glorious)

La Gloriosa Revolución (The Glorious Revolution) is a revolution started by the Spanish liberal movement as an answer to the increasingly conservative and dictatorial monarchy of Isabel II.

Aftermath
After their victory, and their establishing Spain as a Constitutional Monarchy, the Provisional Government, led by Juan Prim and Francisco Serrano, started to search for a new king to replace the Borbones, which they found in the person of Prussian prince Leopold zu Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, who would be chosen new King of Spain. This was one of the causes of the Hohenzollerns' War that would pit Spain and Prussia against France.

Isabel II had to leave Spain in order to prevent the war from reaching her, although she did not renounce to her rights to the Spanish Crown: she only did this in the months leading to the Hohenzollerns' War, so that her son Alfonso had the rights to it, allowing him to claim the Spanish Crown after the French invasion of Spain, although it was a futile attempt.
