Prince of Vergara (Spanish: Príncipe de Vergara) was a life title in the Peerage of Spain, granted in 1872 by Amadeo I to Baldomero Espartero, who was Regent of Spain from 1840 to 1843.[1] The title makes reference to the Convention of Vergara, a symbolic embrace between Espartero and Rafael Maroto which put an end to the First Carlist War in 1839.[2]
As a life title, it was not inheritable and thus ceased to exist after Espartero's death in 1879.
