Answer

Teresa Cristina was a politically neutral queen and played no active role in government. She maintained a distance from political controversies and preferred to stay out of the limelight. This was in contrast to her husband, Pedro II, who was a very active participant in politics. Teresa Cristina's neutrality was a source of frustration for some of her supporters, who felt that she should be more involved in political affairs.
