On 25 April 1974, the revolution explodes. The password for the beginning of the movement was given at midnight through a radio station, the password was a song banned by censorship, Grândula Vila Morena, by Zeca Afonso. The military caused Marcelo Caetano to be deposed, which resulted in him fleeing to Brazil. The presidency of Portugal was assumed by General António de Spínola. The population took to the streets to celebrate the end of the dictatorship and distributed carnations, the national flower, to the rebel soldiers in gratitude.
