The Spanish Revolution of 1854, also known by the name Vicalvarada, started with a confrontation between rebel troops under General Leopoldo O'Donnell, 1st Duke of Tetuan and government troops near the village of Vicálvaro.
This incident was followed by a military coup and a popular uprising, which occurred between June 28 and July 28, 1854 during the reign of Isabella II of Spain.
The Spanish Revolution ended the moderate decade (Década moderada) (1844-1854) and started the progressive biennium (Bienio progresista) (1854-1856).
