The Belgian crisis had been settled, so far as the two powers were concerned, before de Broglie took office; but the concerted military and naval action for the coercion of the Dutch, which led to the French occupation of Antwerp, was carried out under his auspices.
De Broglie had retired from office in the March preceding, and did not return to power till March of the following year, when he became head of the cabinet.
From 1836 to 1848 de Broglie held almost completely aloof from politics, to which his scholarly temperament little inclined him, a disinclination strengthened by the death of his wife on September 22, 1838.

 Albert, 4th duc de Broglie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After a brief diplomatic career at Madrid and Rome, the revolution of 1848 caused Albert de Broglie to withdraw from public life and devote himself to literature.
On the replacement of the latter by Marshal Mac-Mahon, the duc de Broglie became President of the Council and Minister for Foreign Affairs (May 1873), but in the reconstruction of the ministry on November 26, after the passing of the septennate, transferred himself to the ministry of the interior.
His tenure of office was marked by an extreme conservatism, which roused the bitter hatred of the Republicans, while he alienated the Legitimist party by his friendly relations with the Bonapartists, and the Bonapartists by an attempt to effect a compromise between the rival claimants to the monarchy.

Broglie's interest in what he called the "mysteries" of atomic physics--namely, unsolved conceptual problems of the science--was aroused when he learned from his brother about the work of the German physicists Max Planck and Albert Einstein, but the decision to take up the profession of physicist was long in coming.

The liberals who were Orleanists had the advantage of being very ably led by men eminent in letters and in practical affairs—Guizot, Thiers, Achille Charles Léon Victor, duc de Broglie, Jacques Victor Albert, duc de Broglie, the banker Jacques Laffitte and many others.
When the unsurpassed folly of the legitimate rulers brought about the July Revolution of 1830, the Orleanists stepped in, and they marked the profound change which had been made in the character of the government by calling the king "King of the French" and not "King of France and Navarre".
As far back as 1850 Guizot had proposed, or had thought of proposing, one, but it was on the condition that the comte de Chambord would resign his divine pretensions.

In choosing science as a profession, Louis de Broglie broke with family tradition, as had his brother Maurice (from whom, after his death, Louis inherited the title of duc).
The notion that matter on the atomic scale might have the properties of a wave was rooted in a proposal Albert Einstein had made 20 years before.
The first publications of Broglie's idea of "matter waves" had drawn little attention from other physicists, but a copy of his doctoral thesis chanced to reach Albert Einstein, whose response was enthusiastic.
