"In 1810, the peninsula north of Lisbon saw the rise up of one of the most effective military systems in the world, the Lines of Torres Vedras. Anticipating a third Napoleonic invasion that glided to capture the capital, there were built in secret three lines with 152 fortifications, in a rugged region of 88 kms, between the Tagus River and the Atlantic Ocean, in close collaboration of British engineers with the Portuguese population.
