The First Carlist War started, marking the beginning of a conflict.

The First Carlist War erupted in Spain, marking the beginning of a bloody conflict that lasted for several years. The war arose from a succession crisis following the death of King Ferdinand VII, as rival factions disputed the line of succession. On one side was Isabella II, Ferdinand's daughter, who was supported by liberals and progressive factions. On the other side was Carlos, Ferdinand's brother, who rallied conservative and traditionalist groups behind him. The war was characterized by intense fighting and marked by brutal atrocities committed by both sides. It brought about widespread destruction and suffering throughout Spain, with battles raging across the country. The conflict ended with Isabella II being crowned as queen and Carlos being defeated. However, the war established a deep divide between liberals and conservatives, setting the stage for future political struggles in Spain. #Spain #FirstCarlistWar #conflict #successioncrisis #IsabellaII #Carlos
