When elected President, in the year of 1911, he tried to reunite the Republican Party, that had split in many different parties. He couldn't do it, specially because his mandate was atribulated by the Monarchic revolts of Captain Paiva Couceiro. He was replaced as President by Prof. Teófilo Braga in 1915. He died in Lisbon two years later. Manuel de Arriaga was President during the Portuguese participation in World War I. As said above, he couldn't unite the Parties to fight the War and solve the economical problems. The Parliament was closed and accused Manuel de Arriaga of being corrupt.
