Abstract
The fall of the Duke of Lerma in 1618 and the inefficient administration of his son, the Duke of Uceda, caused a major crisis in the Iberian Monarchy, which was already showing signs of decadence. In this context, the visit of Philip III to Portugal in 1619 was unsuccessful in its attempt to appease Portuguese subjects. There are a large number of printed and manuscript texts on these matters.
