In 1497 he married See also:Isabella, daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella of See also:Castile, who had previously been married to See also:Alphonso, the See also:heir of John II.

Henry, later became See also:kings of Portugal. Maria died in 1516, and in 1518 her niece Leonora, a See also:sister of the See also:emperor See also:Charles V., became Emanuel's third wife. Emanuel's reign is noteworthy for the continuance of the Portuguese discoveries and the See also:extension of their See also:chain of trading-posts, Vasco da Gama's opening an all-See also:sea route to See also:India, Cabral's landing in See also:Brazil, See also:Corte-Real's voyage to Labrador, the exploration of the See also:Indian seas and the opening of commercial relations with See also:Persia and See also:China, bringing Portugal See also:international prominence, colonial pre-See also:eminence and a hitherto unparalleled degree of See also:national prosperity. His intense religious zeal variously manifested itself in his persecutions of the See also:Jews, whom at the beginning of his reign he had been disposed to tolerate, his strenuous endeavours to promote an international crusade against the See also:Turks, his eager missionary enterprise throughout his new possessions, and his erection of twenty-six monasteries and two cathedrals, including the stately monastic See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

- CHURCH, GEORGE EARL (1835–1910)
- CHURCH, RICHARD WILLIAM (1815–189o)
- CHURCH, SIR RICHARD (1784–1873)
church of the Jeronymos at Belem (see See also:LISBON). His jealously despotic See also:character was accentuated by the enormous increase the Indies furnished to his See also:personal See also:wealth, and exemplified in his See also:assumption of new titles and in a magnificent See also:embassy to See also:Pope See also:Leo X. He died at Lisbon on the 13th of See also:December 1521.
The best authorities for the See also:history of Emanuel's reign are the contemporary 16th-See also:century Chronica d'el Rei D. Manoel, by Damiao de Goes, and De See also:rebus Emanuelis, by J. See also:Osorio. El Rei D. Manoel, by M. B. See also:Branco (Lisbon, 1888), is a valuable but See also:ill-arranged See also:biography. See also the Ordenayo"es do S. R. D. Manoel (See also:Coimbra University See also:Press, 1797). For further bibliography see Barbosa Machado, Bibliographua Lusitana, vol. iii. pp. 161-166.
