Colonial Governors
The seventeenth-century reform of the colonial administration replaces the patchwork of feudal donatário captaincies with appointed royal governors and viceroys answerable directly to the Conselho Ultramarino in Lisbon. The Viceroy of the Estado da Índia at Goa, the Captain-General of Angola, and the Governor of Brazil at Salvador each command a salaried bureaucracy of Crown officials, magistrates, and treasury inspectors. This unified administration tightens royal control over distant possessions and dramatically increases the proportion of colonial revenue reaching the metropolitan treasury.
