Pact of El Pardo

The Pact of El Pardo was an informal agreement which supposedly took place on 24 November, 1885,[1] in the face of King Alfonso XII's imminent death. It confirmed a system of party alternation ("turno") that lasted until General Primo de Rivera's coup in 1923. The pact was signed in the Royal Palace of El Pardo.[2]
