Answer: a good example can be Portugal. In 1807 royal court escapes from Lisbon to Rio because of general Junot´s campaign approaching Portugal.....during the period 1807-1820 there is no political elite in Portugal, only English protectorate with its protector lord Beresford. During this period Portuguese opposition grows against the English and when a revolution overthrows Beresford, it is a LIBERAL REVOLUTION.
Explanation: Liberal revolution (1820) required king John VI to get back and to accept new-born constitution produced by new parliament (so-called Cortes). During the next period (1820-1834) there is a conflict between liberals and absolutists, but absolutists (or Miguelists, followers of absolute monarchy) are defeated. From the 1834 there is a constitutional monarchy which continues till 1910 (proclamation of the republic).
