Description
The Portuguese cavalry originated in 1640 when a number of permanent companies were mustered as part of the new regular army raised by King Joao IV. They were organised into regiments from 1707, but all were disbanded and totally reorganised from 1715. The Count de Lippe reorganised and augmented the cavalry to 12 regiments which could best be defined as medium cavalry. Although some of the regiments officially kept their titles as dragoons until 1806, The arms, equipment and uniform were similar for all regiments. There was no light cavalry such as hussars or light dragoons.
