 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Portugal
Leonor now entirely dominated her vacillating and indolent husband, and by obtaining honors and lands for her kinsfolk and friends provided against the time when he should die.
The people would not submit to a foreign king, and shortly after Ferdinand's death the citizens of Lisbon rose against Leonor; Andeiro and the archbishop were slain, and John, Grand Master of Aviz, illegitimate son of Pedro I, became defender of the realm.
The Patriarch of Lisbon is considered to be entitled to a cardinal's hat, and the archbishop of Braga bears the title of "Primate of the Spains", an honour which, however, is disputed by Toledo.

As early as 737, the Visigothic noble Pelayo took the offensive and defeated the Muslims at Covadonga, for which he was proclaimed king of Astúrias, later León.
Subsequent kings of Astúrias-León, who claimed succession from Visigothic monarchs, were able to retake Braga, Porto, Viseu, and Guimarães in northern Portugal, where they settled Christians around strongholds.
For 200 years, this region was a buffer zone across which the frontier between Christians and Muslims shifted back and forth with the ebb and flow of attack and counterattack.

João II insisted, for example, on a new form of oath from his subjects by which the nobles gave a written promise and subsequently swore on their knees to deliver any castle or town they held from the crown immediately upon demand.
Viseu's remaining brother, Manuel, gave his allegiance to the Crown and subsequently succeeded João II to the throne.
But Manuel's accession depended in part upon the intercession of Queen Leonor, his sister, who was only reconciled to João II upon his deathbed when he recognised Manuel's claim.

John married his cousin Leonor in Setúbal on 22 January 1471, and their union produced just one child, Prince Afonso, who was born in Lisbon on 18 May 1475.
A second conspiracy was led by the young Diogo, Duke of Viseu, Queen Leonor’s brother, who planned to assassinate John II in Setúbal.
As Queen Leonor could not give him any more children, the king tried to exclude from the succession his cousin and brother-in-law Manuel, Duke of Beja, who had been appointed putative heir to the throne in 1484.
