	Louis-Philippe of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born in Paris, Louis-Philippe was the son of Louis Philippe Joseph, duc d'Orléans (known as "Philippe Égalité"), and a descendant of King Louis XIII.

	Louis Philippe on Encyclopedia.com
		In the July Revolution of 1830, Louis Philippe was made lieutenant general of the realm and, with the support of the marquis de Lafayette, was chosen "king of the French." His reign, known as the July Monarchy, marked the triumph of the wealthy bourgeoisie and a return to influence of many former Napoleonic officials.
		Louis Philippe was known as the "citizen king" because of his bourgeois manner and dress, and he and his regime were satirized by Honoré Daumier.
		In the early years of his reign, Louis Philippe's basically conservative outlook was strengthened by a number of workers' demonstrations and by several attempts on his life, notably that of Giuseppe Fieschi (1835).

		It has not attracted other sections of society, in contrast to 1968, when revolutionary students were joined by the trade unions, or to 1848, when widespread demonstrations brought down the July Monarchy of Louis-Philippe in France, and in Austria forced the resignation of Metternich, the architect of the Congress of Vienna.
		The rioting in France this autumn has no clear political aim beyond an expression of disgust with the government and, in particular, the interior minister, Nicolas Sarkozy.
		France is marked by fin de régime rivalry between Mr Sarkozy and Dominique de Villepin, the prime minister.

	The New York Review of Books: A Radical Field Marshal
		That most of these monarchs, except for Louis Philippe of France, managed to get through the crisis was not owing to any special skill on their part nor was the French king particularly inept.
		The king of the French was driven from his throne; other kings and princes were attacked, abused, or, the supreme humiliation, were forced--like Louis XVI of France half a century before--to embrace the revolution.
		As a matter of fact, Louis Philippe, himself an ex-revolutionary, was one, of the more able monarchs in Europe.
