Bourbon Spain was a country ruled by the House of Bourbon. Early in the Napoleonic Wars, Spain was an ally of the French Empire but was betrayed, once they planned to invade Portugal.
France then captured the capital of Spain and turned Spain into a client state of France, placing Napoleon's brother as the king Joseph Bonaparte , and establishing the House of Bonaparte in Spain. Many people who believed that the true king should be returned to power Ferdinand VII , rebelled against this new power. This time, Spain decides not to make the same mistake and joins the coalition. Spain might have been an original team in Iberian Harbor , but was replaced with Brunswick.
Since Napoleon Bonaparte was always busy with France during the Napoleonic Wars, he gave his step-son command over the army. The Kingdom of Italy also participated in the war against Austria during , in The German campaign, and the French invasion of Russia. The Kingdom of Portugal is located in the Iberian Peninsula, the French Empire intended to Invade Portugal since it was allied with the UK and did not comply with the economic blockade, however France would have to cross the Spanish border to enter Portugal, so France and Spain made a secret treaty in which they planned to conquer and split Portugal into three regions, one to be given as a reward to a faithful supporter of Napoleon, another to Spain and one to be under French rule until the war is over.
But as is known Napoleon betrays Spain and occupies the capital, turning them into a client state. From there, the UK, knowing the situation, agrees that the best way for the Portuguese royal family not to be arrested would be to flee to the most developed of the colonies in Brazil, From there General William Carr Beresford lead the repelling army against the French forces together with the British troops commanded by the Duke of Wellington.
