16 Albuquerque, Joaquim Mousinho de
(1855-1902)Portugal's most celebrated colonial soldier of the modern era, governor and conqueror of the Gaza state in Mozambique. A career army officer with noble lineage, "Mousinho," as he became known to his generation, later helped to shape Portugal's administration and policies in Mozambique, following army service in India. He served largely as a soldier involved in so-called "pacification" campaigns in Mozambique (1890-95) and then as an administrator, where he acted as royal commissioner and governor-general of Mozambique from 1896 to 1898. After he first visited Africa in 1890, the year of the English Ultimatum, the principal part of his career would be devoted to Portuguese Africa, and he was to become a noted authority on African affairs and policies. Appointed governor of the district of Lourenço Marques (today, Maputo) in late 1890, he returned to Portugal in 1892, then became part of the most famous military expedition to Portuguese Africa of the modern era, the 1895 force sent to Mozambique to conquer the African state of Gaza, in southern Mozambique. Albuquerque distinguished himself in this bloody campaign; at the battle of Coolela, on 7 November 1895, Portuguese forces using the novel machine gun defeated and slaughtered the army of Gaza king Gungunyane. Following his appointment as military governor of the Gaza district, Albuquerque grew impatient with the failure of his superiors to give the coup d'grace to the Gaza kingdom by killing or capturing its leader, Gungunyane, who had escaped after the battle of Coolela. With a small force, Mousinho raided his refuge at Chaimite, Mozambique, and captured Gungunyane, who did not resist (January 1896). These bold deeds in the 1895 campaign and the surprise kidnapping of Mozambique's most powerful African leader made Albuquerque a hero in Portugal and a colonial celebrity in several other European states. Among the honors showered upon this unusual soldier was the 1896 double appointment as governor-general and royal commissioner of Mozambique colony. His service as chief administrator of Portugal's second most important African territory during 1896-98 was significant but frustrating. His efforts at sweeping reforms, rejuvenation, and decentralization of authority and power were noble but made little impact at the time. He resigned in anger after his failure to move the Lisbon colonial bureaucracy and returned to a restless, relatively inactive life in Portugal. Unable to adjust to dull garrison duty, after he completed his masterful colonial report-memoir on his African service (Mozambique, 1896-98), Albuquerque in vain sought new challenges. Briefly he served as tutor to Prince Luís, heir apparent of King Carlos I, but his efforts to volunteer as an officer in wars in South Africa and China failed. His idea of a military dictatorship to reform a lagging constitutional monarchy rejected both by his patron, King Carlos, and by much of the political elite, Lieutenant Colonel Mousinho de Albuquerque found life too painful to bear. On 8 January 1902, while on a Lisbon tram, Albuquerque committed suicide with his own pistol. His importance for future colonial policy in Africa was manifest as Portugal made efforts to decentralize and reform administration until 1930. After 1930, his personal legend as a brave colonial soldier who was an epitome of patriotism grew and was exploited by the dictatorship led by Sala- zar. Mousinho de Albuquerque was adopted by this regime, between 1930 and 1960, as the military-colonial patron saint of the regime and as an example to Portuguese youth. The name of the place where he surprised Gungunyane, Chaimite, was adopted as the name of an armored car used by the Portuguese Army in its post-1961 campaigns in Africa.See also Carlos I, King; Generation of 1895.Historical dictionary of Portugal > Albuquerque, Joaquim Mousinho de

17 Tennessee
Штат в группе штатов Юго-Восточного Центра. Площадь 109,1 тыс. кв. км. Население 5,6 млн. человек (2000). Столица г. Нашвилл [ Nashville]. Крупнейшие города - Мемфис [ Memphis], Ноксвилл [ Knoxville], Чаттануга [ Chattanooga]. Граничит со штатами Кентукки [ Kentucky] и Вирджиния [ Virginia] на севере, с Северной Каролиной [ North Carolina] на востоке, со штатами Джорджия [ Georgia], Алабама [ Alabama] и Миссисипи [ Mississippi] на юге, с Арканзасом [ Arkansas] и Миссури [ Missouri] на западе. Восточная часть штата занята Аппалачскими горами [ Appalachian Mountains; Great Smoky Mountains] (высшая точка гора Клингменс-Доум [ Clingmans Dome], 2025 м), узкие хребты которых разделены продольными долинами. На западе расположена низменность между реками Теннесси [ Tennessee River] и Миссисипи [ Mississippi River]. Между горами и низменностью лежит плато Камберленд [ Cumberland Plateau]. Около половины территории штата покрыто лесами. Климат на северо-востоке умеренный, влажный, в горах - континентальный, субтропический на юге. В горах выпадает рекордное количество осадков, в США характерное еще только для Тихоокеанского Северо-Запада [ Pacific Northwest]. Первыми известными обитателями этих земель были представители культуры строителей курганов [ Mound Builders], а первым побывавшим в этих местах европейцем был Э. де Сото [ De Soto, Hernando] (1541). Тогда же здесь жили племена чероки [ Cherokee], шауни [ Shawnee] и чикасо [ Chickasaw]. В XVII-XVIII вв. на эти земли претендовали как Англия, так и Франция, но в 1763 по Парижскому договору [ Treaty of Paris] французы отказались от всех территориальных претензий на земли восточнее р. Миссисипи [ Mississippi River] в пользу Великобритании, что создало фактор стабильности и способствовало колонизации Теннесси. В 1772 обосновавшиеся здесь поселенцы создали т.н. Ассоциацию Ватога [ Watauga Association] с целью защиты общих интересов и осуществления правосудия. Лидерами этой организации были Дж. Севьер [Sevier, John] и Дж. Робертсон [Robertson, James], в 1779 основавшие поселение на месте современного Нашвилла. Теннессийские поселенцы активно поддержали движение колоний за независимость; волонтеры под командованием Севьера и И. Шелби [ Shelby, Isaac] сыграли решающую роль в победе при Кингс-Маунтин [ King's Mountain, Battle of] (1780), предотвратившей объединение сил англичан. После Войны за независимость [ Revolutionary War] и многочисленных столкновений с племенами чероки, в 1784 был создан т.н. штат Франклин [ State of Franklin] на северо-востоке Теннесси, состоявший из земель, переданных Северной Каролиной в распоряжение федеральных властей. Северная Каролина отказалась признать новый штат, а его губернатор Севьер был арестован в 1788, после чего штат прекратил свое существование. После повторной передачи Северной Каролиной этих земель в распоряжение федерального правительства (1789), Дж. Вашингтон [ Washington, George] назначил в 1790 У. Блаунта [Blount, William] губернатором всех территорий США южнее р. Огайо [ Ohio River]. 1 июня 1796 Теннесси стал шестнадцатым по счету штатом в составе США, а пост губернатора вновь получил Севьер. С началом англо-американской войны 1812-14 [ War of 1812] около 28 тыс. теннессийцев приняли участие в боевых действиях, а в сражении при Новом Орлеане [ New Orleans, Battle of] выходцы из этого штата составляли большинство американской армии, при этом особенно прославился фактический победитель сражения Э. Джексон [ Jackson, Andrew]. Такое же активное участие штат принимал во всех войнах с индейцами [ Indian Wars] восточнее р. Миссисипи. Среди знаменитых героев этой поры уроженцы штата Д. Крокетт [ Crockett, Davy (David)] и С. Хьюстон [ Houston, Samuel (Sam)]. С началом Гражданской войны [ Civil War] население этого пограничного штата [ Border States] было разделено на две враждующие стороны - на востоке поддерживали единство Союза [ Union] и отмену рабства [ abolition], жители центральной и западной частей штата поддерживали Конфедерацию [ Confederate States of America] и рабовладение. В результате Теннесси последним из южных штатов вышел из состава США и был первым из штатов бывшей Конфедерации восстановлен в составе США. Из-за своего географического положения штат стал ареной большого числа сражений. После победы северян у форта Донелсон [ Fort Donelson National Battlefield] в штате было введено военное правление во главе с Э. Джонсоном, а после войны Теннесси испытал на себе все тяготы Реконструкции [ Reconstruction], закончившейся здесь в 1870. Тогда же демократы заняли доминирующее положение в политической жизни штата; в том же году была принята ныне действующая конституция штата [ state constitution]. Практически сразу после Гражданской войны начался и процесс активной индустриализации. В 1925 штат привлек внимание всей страны "обезьяньим процессом" [ Monkey trial] в г. Дейтоне. В 1940-50-е Теннесси стал лидером возрождающегося "Нового Юга" [ New South]. В 1960-е штат был охвачен движением за гражданские права [ civil rights movement], но десегрегация прошла здесь относительно спокойно. 4 апреля 1968 в Мемфисе был убит М. Л. Кинг [ King, Martin Luther, Jr. (MLK)]. В 1980-е за счет миграции существенно увеличился прирост населения Теннесси. Штат занимает первое место в США по добыче цинка. В промышленности основная доля приходится на машиностроение, химическую, пищевую и текстильную промышленность, а также производство резины и пластмассы. В 1980-90-е заметное место занимают автомобилестроительные заводы американских и японских фирм. В энергетике главенствующую роль играет Управление ресурсами бассейна Теннесси [ Tennessee Valley Authority]. Основные сельскохозяйственные районы (с преимущественно мелкими фермерскими хозяйствами) расположены в низменности долины Миссисипи, но сельское хозяйство играет незначительную роль в экономике. В Теннесси и поныне сохраняются традиционные различия между промышленным востоком (в политике - бастион республиканцев) и сельским западом (оплот демократов), хотя сейчас эти различия представляются многим скорее преимуществом для развития штата, чем его недостатком. Несмотря на повышение уровня жизни и доходов населения по мере диверсификации экономики, доход на душу населения в штате продолжает оставаться ниже среднего. -
