The Carnation Revolution of 25th April 1974 marked the end of the fascist dictatorship and the conquest of Freedom
The end of political prisons
The establishment of freedom of thought, press, association, assembly and expression
The consecration of workers essential rights
The establishment of a democratic local power
The end of colonial wars
The right of peoples from the colonies to self-determination and independence
The improvement of people ‘s living conditions
The democratization of education
The establishment of equality between men and women
Change of mentalities
And a constitutionally consecrated democratic regime.
