Treaty of Utrecht Renunciations to France and Spain Philip V Headship Royal House of France Bourbon Orléans This notably omitted the evident rights of the line of Orléans, causing some resentment on the part of the Duke (leading to the promulgation of the 1703 Pragmatic Decree restating his rights).
