==House of Aviz (1385–1580)== The '''[[House of Aviz]]''', known as the '''Joanine Dynasty''', succeeded the [[Portuguese House of Burgundy|House of Burgundy]] as the reigning house of the Kingdom of Portugal. The house was founded by John I of Portugal, who was the Grand Master of the [[Order of Aviz]]. When King John II of Portugal died without an heir, the throne of Portugal passed to his cousin, [[Manuel I of Portugal|Manuel, Duke of Beja]]. When King [[Sebastian of Portugal]] died, the throne passed to his Grand-uncle, [[Henry, King of Portugal|Henry of Portugal]] (he might be called Henry II because [[Henry, Count of Portugal]], father of [[Alphonso I of Portugal]], was the first of that name to rule Portugal). When Henry died, a [[War of the Portuguese Succession|succession crisis]] occurred and [[António, Prior of Crato]], was proclaimed António of Portugal. {{Succession table monarch | name1 = '''[[John I of Portugal|John I]]''' | nickname1 = Of Good Memory; The One with Good Memory; Of Fond Memory; The [[Master of Avis]]; The Good; The Great; The Bastard | native1 = {{langx|pt|João I}} | life1 = 11 April 1357 – 14 August 1433 (aged 76) | reignstart1 = 6 April 1385 | reignend1 = 14 August 1433 | notes1 = Illegitimate son of Peter I | family1 = [[House of Aviz|Aviz]]<br />[[File:Brasão de armas do reino de Portugal (1385).svg|40px]] | image1 = Anoniem - Koning Johan I van Portugal (1450-1500) - Lissabon Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga 19-10-2010 16-12-61.jpg | name2 = '''[[Edward, King of Portugal|Edward]]''' | nickname2 = The Eloquent; The Philosopher; The Philosopher-King | native2 = {{langx|pt|Duarte I}} | life2 = 31 October 1391 – 9 September 1438 (aged 46) | reignstart2 = 14 August 1433 | reignend2 = 9 September 1438 | notes2 = Son of John I | family2 = Aviz<br />[[File:Brasão de armas do reino de Portugal (1385).svg|40px]] | image2 = Duarte of Portugal detail.jpg | name3 = '''[[Afonso V of Portugal|Afonso V]]''' | nickname3 = The African; The Crusader | native3 = | life3 = 15 January 1432 – 28 August 1481 (aged 49) | reignstart3 = 13 September 1438 <br />—<br />15 November 1477 | reignend3 = 11 November 1477 <br />—<br /> 28 August 1481 | notes3 = Son of Edward I | family3 = Aviz<br />[[File:Brasão de armas do reino de Portugal (1385).svg|40px]] | image3 = AfonsoV-P.jpg | name4 = '''[[John II of Portugal|John II]]''' | nickname4 = The Perfect Prince; The Man (O Homem) | native4 = {{langx|pt|João II}} | life4 = 3 March 1455 – 25 October 1495 (aged 40) | reignstart4 = 11 November 1477 <br />—<br /> 28 August 1481 | reignend4 = 15 November 1477 <br />—<br /> 25 October 1495 | notes4 = Son of Afonso V | family4 = Aviz<br />[[File:Brasão de armas do reino de Portugal (1485).svg|40px]] | image4 = D._João_II_half-length_–_Museu_de_Marinha.jpg | name5 = '''[[Manuel I of Portugal|Manuel I]]''' | nickname5 = The Fortunate; The Grocer King/The Spices King (O Rei das Especiarias) | native5 = | life5 = 31 May 1469 – 13 December 1521 (aged 52) | reignstart5 = 25 October 1495 | reignend5 = 13 December 1521 | notes5 = Cousin of John II<br />Grandson of Edward I | family5 = Aviz<br />[[File:Brasão de armas do reino de Portugal (1485).svg|40px]] | image5 = D.
