"The short time that Joseph Bonaparte was king of Spain is considered the climax of enlightened despotism in Spain. The regime of "Don José" was however an imposition of the French, and it was not accepted by Spaniards, that considered that the Bourbons were their only legitimate kings.

The reaction of the Spanish people to French domination was the great revolt of May 1808, the greatest revolt anywhere in Europe during that time.The revolt started on May 2 in Madrid, at the same time as the last member of the royal family was sent to exile. The revolt spread over the country in a few weeks, even before Napoleon had officially imposed a Bonaparte king. It was supported by all classes of the population (but the nobles were the least enthusiastic). its purpose was to save national independence and also to save the importance of traditional religion."

  3. What was happening during this time period "The short time that Joseph Bonaparte.."? ( 5-6 lines) (2 points)

    In Spain the head of the State was Carles IV (later his son Ferran VII from the Royal Bourbon family) and in France Napoleon Bonaparte. 
    Spain and its monarchy couldn't cope with the problems of the French revolution and the emergence of Napoleon.
    When Napoleon decided to invade Portugal and despatched an army for this purpose everything changed: the French army looked like an occupation army and the Independence War started. 

    The brutal incursion—which included mass executions of Spanish citizens who rose up in opposition to Napoleon's invasion—culminated in French occupation and the installation of Napoleon's brother, Joseph Bonaparte, on the Spanish throne. .
    Both kings of Spain were forced to abdicate in favour of Napoleon's choice for the Spanish throne. He selected his brother Joseph, who at present was king of Naples (a dignity now to be transferred to Murat), but the vast majority of the country opposed the French presence and the transfer of the Crown to Joseph Bonaparte and this opposition led to the disorders in Madrid on 2 May 1808. The French thought that those civilians executions, 3 may 1808, would finish their troubles; instead, they got a war that lasted six years.


  4. Who proclaimed Joseph Bonaparte King of Spain, why and what happened with the Borbon monarchy? (6-7 lines) (2 points)
    Joseph was  Napoleon Bonaparte brother and  when Naopelon invaded Spain and Portugal..
    Both kings of Spain were forced to abdicate in favour of Napoleon's choice for the Spanish throne. He selected his brother Joseph, who at present was king of Naples (a dignity now to be transferred to Murat). This is politics at its most cynical. But just a few days earlier a much more significant event occurred in Madrid: The third of May.

  5. Why is it said that the Independence war against the French was, a war against the French invasion, and also a civil war as well?? (6-8 lines) (2 points)

     The war against Napoleon (1808-1814) also contained elements of a civil war between the absolutist supporters of the restored monarchy, Ferdinand VII, and the Liberals who had given the country its first Constitution, de Cádiz or the Constitution of 1812.
