| Resumo: | In 1808, the Portuguese royal family arrived in Brazil, fleeing the Napoleonic invasions of Portugal. From then on, an entire political-administrative structure was created in the colony that transformed Rio de Janeiro into the new capital of the Portuguese overseas empire. This article addresses issues of political identity in this Portuguese empire from 1808 to 1822. It seeks to demonstrate, through sources, historiographical debate and valuing the perspectives of the comparative history of the Iberian kingdoms – mainly Spain, which was also invaded and its domains –, such as certain analytical premises articulated with the concepts of political hybridity and polycentric monarchy, contribute to the understanding of how this empire functioned and the dynamism of its political culture. In the meantime, the specificity of the Luso-Brazilian empire that was established in the tropics is attested as an unprecedented configuration in the history of monarchies in the Modern era. |
