Carlists

The Carlists of Spain are a legitimist group, faithful to the Salic law, brought to Spain from France with the Bourbon dynasty.

They refused to accept the action of Ferdinand VII in attempting to make his daughter Isabella Queen, as his successor, supporting instead Ferdinand's brother Don Carlos.
