  Armand Marc, comte de Montmorin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Armand Marc, comte de Montmorin de Saint Herem (1745-1792), was a French statesman.
The comte de la Marck was trying to bring Mirabeau into touch with the court, and for this purpose it was important to secure the assistance of Montmorin.
The death of Mirabeau in April 1791 was a severe blow to Montmorin, the difficulty of whose position was enormously increased after the flight of the royal family to Varennes, to which he was not privy.

 Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, comte de Mirabeau   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The Comte de la Marck was a Flemish nobleman, a close friend of the queen, and had been elected a member of the states-general.
However, in April 1790 he was suddenly recalled by the comte de Mercy-Argenteau, the Austrian ambassador at Paris, and the queen's most trusted political adviser, and from this time to Mirabeau's death he became the medium of almost daily communications between the latter and the queen.
He had long known Armand Marc, comte de Montmorin, the foreign secretary, and, as matters became more strained from the complications with the princes and counts of the empire, he entered into daily communication with the minister, advised him on every point, and, while dictating his policy, defended it in the Assembly.

The convenience of an understanding between the two men was obvious; and they were soon on the closest terms.
On the other hand, La Marck thought that Montmorin's feebleness was occasionally useful in restraining Mirabeau's impetuosity.

Montmorin, French Ambassador in Madrid, Commandant of Brittany, a member of the Assembly of Notables in 1787, and entrusted with the portfolio of Foreign Affairs under Louis XVI, who was very fond of him: he died on the scaffold to which he was later followed by several members of his family.
Madame de Beaumont’s extreme weakness made her slow of expression, and that slowness was touching; I only knew this sadly afflicted woman at the time of her flight; she was already mortally ill, and I devoted myself to her sufferings.
The changes in literature, which the nineteenth century boasted of, arose from emigration and exile; it was Monsieur de Fontanes who hatched these birds of another species than his own, because, returning to the seventeenth century, he had acquired the strength of those times, and forsaken the sterility of the eighteenth.

 10 May History: This Date
Louis was the great-grandson of King Louis XIV [05 Sep 1638 – 01 Sep 1715; ruled from 1643] and the son of Louis, duc de Bourgogne, and Marie-Adélaïde of Savoy.
Mme de Châteauroux continued to help lead the court faction that brought France into the War of the Austrian Succession against Austria, and she persuaded Louis to take the field in pursuit of military glory.
Although Madame de Pompadour's favourite, Étienne-François, Duke de Choiseul [28 Jun 1719 – 08 May 1785] (foreign minister from 1758 to 1770), restored France's military strength, the failure of Louis's secret diplomacy in Poland enabled Russia, Austria, and Prussia to partition Poland (1772) and virtually eliminate French influence in central Europe.

Whiteman also sheds new light on Vergennes’ successor as Foreign Minister, Armand-Marc, comte de Montmorin de Saint-Herem who emerges as a significant policy-maker rather than a caretaker.
Montmorin emerges again as a pivotal figure in global policy-making and Whiteman also traces how Mirabeau came not just to ally with Montmorin on diplomatic and colonial issues, but to dominate the relationship (pp.
