The Liberal Regenerator Party (Portuguese: Partido Regenerador Liberal) was a Portuguese political party established in 1901, under the leadership of João Franco.[1] The party was asked to form a government by King Carlos I in 1906, and its leader ultimately accused of being partly responsible for the assassination of the King in 1908, for the policies he enacted during its tenure.
