Marilyn Berg · Answer 2

The correct option is A

Spain peninsular was immersed in his War of Independence (1808-1814) against the Empire of Napoleon, who had invaded Portugal and sought to dominate Spain after the abdications of Bayonne. In this context, the power of Spain was concentrated in the town, and the official representation revolved only around the Council of Regency and the Cortes of Cádiz.
