Princes of Portugal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title of Prince of Portugal was created by Edward of Portugal, and was attributed only to the heir apparent. The first to use the title was Edward's son Afonso (later Afonso V) and the last was Teodósio, son of John IV of Portugal.
In 1645 the title was changed to Prince of Brazil.
