Abstract(s)
A Brigada Real da Marinha foi um corpo militar criado no final do século XVIII e que perdurou
até novembro de 1836. Foi concebida com o intuito de colmatar as deficiências que se faziam
sentir nos Corpos militares que embarcavam nos navios da Armada Real. A Brigada quando foi
criada pelo alvará de 28 de agosto de 1797, contemplava três divisões distintas. A primeira era
dedicada à artilharia naval e sua manutenção, a segunda era responsável pela defesa e
desembarque do mar para a terra e por fim, a terceira era responsável pela manutenção das
estruturas dos navios e realização de trabalhos no Arsenal da Marinha. O Comandante da
Brigada designava-se de Inspetor Geral e tinha o posto superior a chefe de esquadra, sendo
responsável por garantir que os navios eram guarnecidos com as peças de artilharia e pelos
destacamentos da Brigada. No entanto, ao longo da sua existência sofreu diversas alterações
orgânicas para se poder adaptar às exigências da sua época. Em novembro de 1807, a maioria
dos quantitativos da Brigada Real da Marinha embarcaram na esquadra que levava a família real
para a colónia brasileira. Quando a guerra foi declarada a França este corpo embarcou na
esquadra com o objetivo de conquistar Caiena e dominar a colónia francesa de forma a negarlhe uma base na América. Entretanto, D. João VI regressou a Lisboa no ano de 1821 e deixou
grande parte deste de Corpo no Brasil, quando o Brasil se tornou independente os elementos
da Brigada que se encontravam no Brasil nunca mais regressaram a Lisboa. A partir desse
momento, a Brigada começou a ter problemas profundos na sua organização devido à falta de
pessoal que não conseguiam ser resolvidos com uma reorganização, extinguindo-se a 7 de
novembro de 1836 sendo substituída pelo Batalhão Naval.
The Royal Navy Brigade was a military corps created at the end of the 18th century and lasted until November 1836. It was conceived to fill the shortcomings that were felt in the military corps that boarded the Royal Navy ships. When the Brigade was created by the license of August 28, 1797, it contemplated three distinct divisions. The first was dedicated to Naval artillery and its maintenance, the second was responsible for defending and disembarking from sea to land and the third was responsible for maintaining the structures of the ships and carrying out works in the Navy Yard. The Brigade Commander was designated as Inspector General and had the highest rank as rear admiral,who is responsible for ensuring that ships were provided with artillery pieces and for the Brigade deployments. However, throughout its existence it has undergone several organic changes to adapt to the requirements of its time. In November 1807, most of the numbers of the Royal Navy Brigade embarked on the fleet that took the royal family to the Brazilian colony. When the war was declared to France, this corps embarked on the fleet with the objective of conquering Cayenne and dominating the French colony in order to deny it a base in America. Meanwhile, D. João VI returned to Lisbon in 1821 and left a large part of this corps in Brazil, when Brazil became independent the members of the Brigade that were there never returned to Lisbon. From that moment onwards, the Brigade began to have problems in its organization due to the lack of personnel that could not be solved with a reorganization, being extinguished on November 7, 1836 and replaced by the Naval Battalion.
