In 1974, not long after the death of Portuguese dictator Salazar, who had ruled Portugal from the early '30s to the late '60s, a group of disgruntled Army officers held a coup.

Though their intent was to form a radical socialist state, circumstances prevented this, and a genuine parliamentary democracy emerged.
