r. Louis Philippe I (1 jan 1830 ano – 1 jan 1848 ano)

Descrição:

Louis Philippe’s reign was known for favoring French elites and its stubborn inaction and complacency. He was brought to the throne by the middle class after an insurrection due to Charles X's actions.

France experienced unanswered desire for change, high-level financial scandals, and a severe depression due to crop failures that the government did little to prevent. The discontent of a diverse array of opponents to the king led to a popular revolt in Paris. The king refused to call in the army and abdicated in favor of his grandson.

Philippe accepted the Constitutional Charter and adopted the current French flag. However, demand for reform remained unanswered.
