Family

[edit]

Álvaro XIV was the son of Pedro V, brother of Álvaro XIII and son of Henrique II. Henrique had split his lands between his two sons; Álvaro and Pedro. They did a swap and Pedro got Kongo on 7 August 1859. Then he signed a treaty in 1888 that Kongo would go to Portuguese rule. Then Pedro died in February 1891 and Álvaro XIV succeeded in the throne of Kongo. He was canonized^{[clarification needed]} in 1892 as Álvaro XIV, he died in 1896 and he was succeeded by his son Pedro VI.
