Object history
The Armed Forces Movement or MFA [Movimento das Forças Armadas] was responsible for instigating the Carnation Revolution of 25 April 1974, a military coup in Lisbon that ended Portugal's right-wing Second Republic state corporatism (Estado Novo 1933-1974) and the Portuguese Colonial War, leading to the independence of Portugal's overseas territories.
