He was named Duke of Nochera on 10 August 1656, and served as Viceroy of Sardinia between 1657 and 1661, and Governor of the Habsburg Netherlands between 1664 and 1668. Under his administration, the Spanish Netherlands suffered a French invasion during the War of Devolution. By this time, Spain was so weak that it could put up very little resistance to the French assault. The French even spoke of "une promenade militaire." Moura was later appointed as Caballerizo mayor to the King and died in Madrid in December 1675.
