The last French king - and the only one ever called "Citizen" - who rode a revolution to power in 1830 and lost his throne to another in 1848. He spent half his adult life in exile, watched his father guillotined, and died in England after the July Monarchy collapsed beneath him.

About this person

Born 6 October 1773, eldest son of Philippe Égalité, Louis Philippe commanded troops in the Revolutionary Wars and made lieutenant general at 19 before breaking with the Republic over the execution of Louis XVI. He fled Switzerland in 1793; his father went to the scaffold during the Terror. Twenty-one years of exile ended with the Bourbon Restoration, and in 1830 the July Revolution handed him a crown when Charles X abdicated. His reign - the July Monarchy - tilted to wealthy industrialists and bankers, steered by François Guizot's conservative policies and marked by the conquest of Algeria and alignment with Britain. Economic ruin in 1847 drained his support, and the Revolution of 1848 forced his abdication. He lived out his final years in the United Kingdom, where he died 26 August 1850.
