The Government of Quinta Velha published last Saturday (24) and today (25) some decrees that make official some changes in the territorial structure of the Kingdom and in other characteristics.
The first decree published on Saturday (24) named the Royal Residence Palace Count of Sena. The objective of the measure was to rescue the family memory and pay homage to the King's maternal grandfather, the Count of Sena.
The other decree, this one published this Sunday, changes the territorial organization of the Kingdom. Now, Quinta Velha is now divided into provinces, and no longer into parishes. The new provinces are: Quinta Velha, Santa Rita and the Neutral Municipality. Another alteration that the decree made was the change of the capital, which now becomes the Neutral Municipality, while the Quinta Velha Province gains the status of Historic Capital of the Kingdom.
