The Spanish Revolution of 1868, also known as the Glorious Revolution, was a successful uprising that led to the overthrow of Queen Isabella II of Spain. Driven by widespread discontent with her rule, including corruption and economic difficulties, the revolution was initiated by a coalition of liberal and progressive forces. Following her abdication, a provisional government was established, leading to the eventual establishment of the First Spanish Republic in 1873. However, this period of instability ultimately paved the way for the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy in 1874.
