In September the 7th, 1822, Brazil gained its independence from Portugal in a bloodless revolt. Dom Pedro I assumed the monarchy and became Brazil's first king. He ruled until 1831 when he was forced to abdicate. His son, who was only five years old, assumed the throne. Ten years later, Dom Pedro II, was officially named King of Brazil. In 1865 Brazil joined Uruguay and Argentina in a war against Paraguay. Paraguay held out for five years, but eventually lost. In 1888 slavery was officially abolished. However, many of the African slaves continued to work the fields, as there was little other financial options open to them. Dom Pedro II ruled until 1889, a bloodless revolution taking power away from him.
