The Portuguese Maximalist Federation (Portuguese: Federação Maximalista Portuguesa or FMP) was a revolutionary movement founded on April 27, 1919 in Lisbon.[1] The organization was inspired by the most radical factions involved in the Russian Revolution of 1917, and was mostly composed by anarchists, syndicalists and the revolutionary left of the Portuguese Socialist Party.[2]
