Birth
Duarte Nuno Fernando Maria Miguel Gabriel Rafael Francisco Xavier Raimundo António de Bragança was born at Schloss Seebenstein in Austria, the son of Miguel II, Duke of Braganza and of his second wife, Princess Marie Therese of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rosenberg. Duarte Nuno had two older half-brothers and eight sisters. Miguel II of Bragança (pron. ...
Duarte Nuno's father was the Miguelist claimant to the throne of Portugal who opposed his cousins, the de facto reigning line of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Braganza descended from Queen Maria II. Duarte Nuno's family had been disinherited by Maria II. In spite of this, the Emperor Franz Josef I of Austria granted extraterritoriality to Schloss Seebenstein in order that Duarte Nuno and his siblings could legally be born in Portuguese territory in order to comply with the Portuguese law of succession. Maria II da Glória, (pron. ...
Franz Joseph I Franz Joseph (in English also Francis Joseph) (August 18, 1830 - November 21, 1916) of the Habsburg Dynasty was Emperor of Austria and King of Bohemia from 1848 until 1916 and King of Hungary from 1867 until 1916. ...
Extraterritoriality is the state of being exempt from the jurisdiction of local law, usually as the result of diplomatic negotiations. ...
The day after his birth Duarte Nuno was baptised at Seebenstein. His godparents were his aunt the Infanta Adelgundes and the husband of another aunt the Infante Alfonso Carlos of Spain, Duke of San Jaime (both of whom were represented by proxies).
Succession as Miguelist claimant Duarte Nuno's second brother Francisco died in 1919, and on July 21, 1920 his eldest brother Miguel renounced his succession rights in order to marry an American commoner. Ten days later on July 31, 1920 Duarte Nuno's father Miguel II abdicated his claim to the Portuguese throne in favour of Duarte Nuno. [1] Henceforth the Miguelists recognised Duarte Nuno as King Duarte II of Portugal, even though Portugal had become a republic in 1910 when Maria II's grandson King Manuel II (who was still living in 1920) was sent into exile. Duarte Nuno used the title Duke of Braganza as a title of pretense. July 21 is the 202nd day (203rd in leap years) of the year in the Gregorian Calendar, with 163 days remaining. ...

Since Duarte Nuno was only twelve years old when he succeeded as Miguelist claimant to the Portuguese throne, his aunt Infanta Aldegundes, Duchess of Guimarães, acted as regent for him until his attained his majority. In 1921 she issued a manifesto outlining the family's goals for the restoration of the monarchy. The abdication of Duarte Nuno's father was intended to improve the relationship between the two monarchist groups in Portugal: the supporters of the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line of Manuel II and the supporters of the Miguelist line of Duarte Nuno. The Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line was called "constitutional" because it had accepted a liberal constitution for Portugal.
Succession as Constitutional claimant The Constitutional claimant to the throne, King Manuel II, had been overthrown and exiled in 1910. After the death of his uncle Afonso in 1920, Manuel had no close relatives who could succeed according to the Portuguese Constitutional Charter of 1826 (the constitution in force from 1842 until the overthrow of the monarchy in 1910). [2] The conflict between the Miguelist line and the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line was not just about which person should be sovereign; it was also about how much power the sovereign should have. The Miguelist line traditionally believed in an autocratic absolutist monarchy, while the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line believed in a constitutional monarchy. In 1912 Duarte Nuno's father Miguel had met with Manuel to try to come to some agreement so that there would not be two claimants to the Portuguese throne, both living in exile. Their representatives signed the "Pact of Dover" by which Miguel recognised Manuel as king, while Manuel recognised the succession rights of Duarte Nuno should Manuel and his uncle Afonso die without children. [3] The pact was unpopular with the supporters of both sides, with many claiming that it was never actually signed. On April 17, 1922 a second agreement called the "Pact of Paris" was signed by the representatives of Duarte Nuno and Manuel in which Manuel agreed that the Cortes should select his heir if he died without one, while Duarte Nuno agreed to ask and recommend that his followers accept Manuel as king. [4] April 17 is the 107th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar (108th in leap years). ...
Year 1922 (MCMXXII) was a common year starting on Sunday (link will display full calendar). ...
Strictly speaking the "Pact of Dover" and the "Pact of Paris" were only private agreements and had no legal value. As constitutional claimant to the throne, Manuel could not act unilaterally without the Cortes. But the agreements were important steps in reconciling the Miguelist line and the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line and moving towards a united monarchist movement. In 1927 Duarte Nuno's father Miguel II died. On July 2, 1932 Manuel II died. Henceforth the vast majority of monarchists, both Miguelist and Constitutional, supported Duarte Nuno as claimant to the Portuguese throne. João António de Azevedo Coutinho, the head of Causa Monárquica and Manuel II's lieutenant while he was in exile, published a declaration in support of Duarte Nuno. [5] Later Duarte Nuno was received in audience in Paris by Manuel's mother Queen Amelie. July 2 is the 183rd day of the year (184th in leap years) in the Gregorian Calendar, with 182 days remaining. ...
1932 (MCMXXXII) was a leap year starting on Friday (the link will take you to a full 1932 calendar). ...
While Duarte Nuno was accepted by the vast majority of monarchists, there were some supporters of the constitutional monarchy who continued to contest his claim. Duarte Nuno was undoubtedly the legal heir of his grandfather Miguel I, but there were doubts about whether he was the legal heir of the last reigning king of Portugal Manuel II. Articles 87 and 88 of the Constitutional Charter of 1826 (the constitution in force in 1910 when the monarchy was overthrown) stated that the throne passed first to the descendants of Queen Maria II (from whom Duarte Nuno was not descended) and only when they were extinct to collateral heirs. [6] Maria II had living descendants, but none of these had Portuguese nationality. Article 89 of the Constitutional Charter of 1826 stated that "no foreigner can succeed to the crown of the kingdom of Portugal". [7] There was also some doubt about Duarte Nuno's nationality. Duarte Nuno's grandfather had been sent into exile by the law of December 19, 1834. Neither Duarte Nuno nor his father were born in Portugal, but Emperor Franz Josef I of Austria had granted extraterritoriality to Duarte Nuno’s birthplace and Portuguese soil had been placed under the bed where he was born. Article 8 of the Constitutional Charter of 1826 stated that Portuguese citizenship is lost "by those who are banished by sentence". [8] The fact that Duarte Nuno and his father had not been born in Portugal, and the fact that their family had been banished from Portugal, could therefore be used as arguments against them by their opponents. On the other hand, their supporters maintained that when the Constitutional Charter of 1826 was re-instated in 1842, it overruled the law of exile of 1834 which thereby became null. December 19 is the 353rd day of the year (354th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
1834 was a common year starting on Wednesday (see link for calendar). ...
Franz Joseph I Franz Joseph (in English also Francis Joseph) (August 18, 1830 - November 21, 1916) of the Habsburg Dynasty was Emperor of Austria and King of Bohemia from 1848 until 1916 and King of Hungary from 1867 until 1916. ...
A small minority of monarchists looked for a candidate other than Duarte Nuno. Manuel's genealogical heir was Crown Prince George of Saxony (a great-grandson of Maria II), but he was not Portuguese (as was required by Portuguese law for the succession); he was also a Catholic priest. The genealogical heir of Maria II's older brother Emperor Pedro II of Brazil was his grandson Prince Pedro of Orleans-Braganza; he too was not Portuguese, but the fact that he was Brazilian and therefore imbued with Portuguese culture made him a somewhat attractive candidate. The closest heir who was undoubtedly Portuguese was Costança Berquo de Mendoça, 4th Duchess of Loulé (a great-great-granddaughter of King John VI). Later Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg-Braganza, who claimed to be the illegitimate daughter of King Carlos I, also claimed to have succession rights. Her supporters played upon the traditional rivalry between the Miguelist line and the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha line.

Marriage and children On October 15, 1942 in the cathedral of Petropolis in Brazil, Duarte Nuno married Princess Maria Francisca of Orleans-Braganza (September 8, 1914-January 15, 1968). The marriage was particularly popular since Maria Francisca was the great-granddaughter of Emperor Pedro II of Brazil the younger brother of Queen Maria II of Portugal. The marriage thus united the two rival lines of the Portuguese royal family.

Pedro I, Emperor of Brazil, King of Portugal (pron. ...
In 1826 Pedro had succeeded as King Pedro IV of Portugal, but two months later he was forced to abdicate in favor of his daughter Maria II, while remaining emperor of Brazil. Some legists held that Pedro had continued to be Duke of Braganza. Certainly after Pedro abdicated as emperor of Brazil and returned to Portugal in 1831 he used the title "Duke of Braganza" until his death in 1834. These same legists held that the title passed to Pedro's son and heir, Emperor Pedro II of Brazil, who after he was deposed in 1889 used the title during his exile in France. The title was then inherited by Pedro II's daughter Isabel, Princess Imperial of Brazil, then by her eldest son Prince Pedro de Alcantara of Orleans-Branganza, and then by his son Prince Pedro Gastão of Orleans-Braganza. According to Portuguese peerage law, Prince Pedro Gastão could alter the succession to the title by relinquishing it to his sister.
