124 LUIS EUGENIO TOGORES SÁNCHEZ ABSTRACT The external action, both military and political of the Liberal Union, led by O´Donnell, was marked by a period of internal peace that allowed Spain in the mid-nineteenth century to face, as did all the great nations of its time, the defense of its colonial possessions, as well as to try to enlarge them. Spain intervened in the question of Italy, in Mexico, against the American Pacific Republics, in Cochinchina and in Morocco during the Africa War, military actions that were resolve efficiently but that, because of the political and diplomatic weakness of Elizabethan Spain, in a clearly adverse international context, gave out little results.
