When can Brazil free the slaves?

[Sir Garnet]

I looked for it at one time, but did not find it. Is there an event emancipating the slaves? The Imperial family was liberally minded, but the vested interests were strong. How to do it was a controversial subject, and historically the Gordian knot was cut with a surprise decree by the Princess Imperial as regent while the Emperor was in Europe, so it could be handled different ways in the game. I'd just like to know if anyone came across it.

I don't think such an event exists, sorry.

Sir Garnet, we can do this manually using as template what happened for Russia and USA. Can you provide information of the historical event happening in real life?

[Sir Garnet]

Children of slaves became free by law in 1871, the elderly in 1885, and slavery was abolished May 13, 1888 by the abolitionist regent Princess Imperial Isabel, who found grounds to replace the anti-abolitionist ministry with an abolitionist one in order to pass the law while the Emperor was in Europe. The Golden Law was very simple: "From this date, slavery is declared abolished in Brazil." and that anything contrary was revoked. The Emperor had promoted gradual emancipation from the 1860s, including ideas such as compensation for slave owners that could make it politically acceptable. The Golden Law, however, seized the moment and made no provision for the complexities of adjustment to such a dramatic change or the political repercussions.

This was a broadly popular move, except among slave owners and conservatives among the upper class who were not well disposed to the Emperior's liberal views and who turned republican in response -- -favoring the removal of the Emperor as a pro-liberal force.

This can be represented by a large militancy increase among the upper classes, less so in the middle class, and a decrease or neutral effect on militancy down the ladder except for slaves, who would be particularly happy.

Leveraging the disaffection of some elites, in November 1889 there was a coup by military positivists who seized their window of opportunity (before the government repaired the political damage) to establish an authoritarian state under republican guise. The Emperor, misunderstanding the nature of the coup as republican and thus a liberal change, accepted it and ordered no action in opposition. He later regretted his acquiescence.

Slaves should convert into a mix of peasants and workers, maybe based on the ratio in each region.

This could be a decision or an event, or can it be an event-triggered decision?
