The Cabo Verdean Monarchy
Cabo Verde has never had a monarchy of its own; however, for most of its history it was a colony of Portugal, and thus was subject to the Portuguese monarchy. With the dissolution of the monarchy in the 5 October 1910, Cabo Verde remained a colony under Portugal's First Republic until gaining independence in 1975.
