Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

The '''Corte-Real family''' (also '''Côrte-Real''' and '''Corte Real''')<ref>((Cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/oscortereaesmem00cantgoog|title=Os Corte-Reaes; memoria historica, acompanhada de muitos documentos ineditos|last=Canto|first=Ernesto do|date=1883|publisher=Ponta Delgada : Archivo dos Açores|others=Harvard University))</ref> is a [[Portuguese nobility|Portuguese noble family]] dating back to 14th century, originating in [[Tavira]]. The family is famous for its involvement in the [[Portuguese discoveries]] during the [[Age of Exploration]], in the 16th century. During this time, [[João Vaz Corte-Real]] and his sons [[Gaspar Corte-Real]] and [[Miguel Corte-Real]] notably participated in exploratory voyages to [[Newfoundland]], in [[Canada]].

For their discoveries in service of the [[King of Portugal|Portuguese Crown]], the family was given the islands of [[Terceira]] and [[São Jorge Island|São Jorge]], in the [[Azores]], and charged with their development and colonization. The family integrated itself well into the [[Portuguese nobility]] in the 17th century through a series of successful marriages and acquisition of several titles, notably [[Marquis of Castelo Rodrigo]].

==Family history==
The origins of the Corte-Real family lie in the 14th century, when Vasco Anes da Costa, a Portuguese knight from Tavira, was one of the supporters of the pretensions of [[John I of Portugal|John Master of Aviz]] to the Portuguese throne and after him, his homonym son, who participated on the [[conquest of Ceuta]], being one the first warriors to cross the wall of the [[Moors|moor]] city. Besides being selected as [[Alcaide]] of  [[Tavira]] and [[Silves, Portugal|Silves]], he also served as [[Algarve]]'s [[fronteiro-mor]] (a kind of governor of the Region). Later, king John I's heir, [[Edward, King of Portugal|Edward I of Portugal]] granted him the use of the surname ''Corte-Real'' (Portuguese for ''Royal Court'') for his descendants. From him and his brother, Gil Vaz da Costa, the first members of the Corte-Real family descend.

[[João Vaz Corte-Real]] (c. 1420-1496) was Vasco Anes da Costa Corte-Real oldest son.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://purl.pt/12151/3/hg-40107-v/hg-40107-v_item3/index.html#/452|title=Nobiliário de famílias de Portugal|website=purl.pt|language=en|access-date=2018-03-24))</ref> He, alongside two of his four sons ([[Miguel Corte-Real|Miguel]] and [[Gaspar Corte-Real|Gaspar]]), participated in various exploratory voyages sponsored jointly by the Portuguese and Danish Crowns. These voyages are said to have been some of the first to reach [[Newfoundland]] and possibly other parts of northeastern [[Canada]]. For the family's service to the crown, João Vaz was made Captain-[[Donatário]] (proprietor and governor) of the islands of [[Terceira]] and [[São Jorge Island|São Jorge]], in the [[Azores]].

Gaspar and Miguel's young brother, [[Vasco Anes II Corte-Real]], was nominated also, like his homonym grandfather, [[Alcaide|alcaide-mor]] of Tavira, in the early 16th century, accumulating the title with the one inherited from his father as capitain-[[donatário]].

This Vasco Anes II Corte-Real had four sons, one of them, Manuel Corte-Real, was heir to the position of capitain-[[donatário]] of [[Angra do Heroísmo|Angra]], and another one, [[Bernardo Corte-Real]], succeeded him in the position of [[Alcaide]] de Tavira.

Another one of the other Vasco Anes II's sons, [[Jerónimo Corte-Real]] (1530-1588) served in various places in Asia and Africa across the [[Portuguese Empire]] before retiring back to Portugal as a court painter and poet to King [[Sebastian I of Portugal]]. His works were contemporary of [[Luís Vaz de Camões]] and said even to rival them, gaining Jerónimo the epithet of the Portuguese [[Virgil]].

Through Manuel Corte-Real descents, this Corte-Real branch continued administration of the family's [[Azorean]] islands, while integrating into the administration of the Algarve. By 1581, the family was headed by Margarida Corte-Real. As the heiress to the Corte-Real family's wealth and titles in both the Azores and the Algarve, Margarida was an especially attractive bride for members of the [[Portuguese nobility]]. She married Cristóvão de Moura e Távora, 1st [[Marquis of Castelo Rodrigo]] and several times a [[List of viceroys of Portugal|Viceroy of Portugal]], during the [[Philippine Dynasty]]. As Margarida was richer and had more extensive notability and power, the children of her marriage would carry her name more prominently than her husbands.

Margarida's son, [[Manuel de Moura Corte Real, 2nd Marquis of Castelo Rodrigo]], amplified the family's position under the Habsburg monarchs of Portugal. Both he and his son, [[Francisco de Moura Corte Real, 3rd Marquis of Castelo Rodrigo]], served as [[Governor of the Habsburg Netherlands|Governors of the Habsburg Netherlands]] and became loyal subjects to the [[House of Habsburg]]. Francisco, who also served as [[Viceroy of Sardinia]], however was the last of the Moura Corte-Real branch of the family before it was exiled from the country due to the [[Portuguese Restoration War]], which saw the Habsburgs deposed in Portugal in lieu of [[House of Braganza]], which expelled supporters of the previous dynasty.
