João VI

Japanese: ジョアン[6世](英語表記)João VI
João VI
1767‐1826
King of Portugal. Reigned 1816-26. Son of Maria I. He took over the government of Portugal in place of the sick Maria I during the most turbulent period in Portuguese history (1792). Because he did not submit to Napoleon's Continental System, Portugal was invaded by French troops in 1807. In November of that year, Regent João handed over the governance of the country to the Englishman Beresford and fled to Brazil with his court. The opening of the Portuguese ports (1808) and the signing of the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of Amity (1810), which were signed under British pressure, dealt a devastating blow to the Portuguese economy.
