The Peoples' Revolution was a civilian-led riot/revolution against the newly established Republic of Creeperopolis (following the failed Monarch's Revolution). From September 13-15, 1730, supporters of the monarchy marched in the streets of San Salvador demanding the return of the monarchy. The monarchist protests turned into protests and riots against the highly corrupt Republic. The government caved into the demands and Adolfo II, brother of the executed Carlos III was instated as King.
The office of President was abolished, but Parliament remained and Orlando Moreno Hidalgo remained as Prime Minister until his death in 1749.
