http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_Revolution -On September 16, 1824, Charles X ascended to the throne of France. He was the younger brother of Louis XVIII, who, upon the defeat of Napoléon Bonaparte, and by agreement of the Allied powers, had been installed as King of France. The fact that both Louis and Charles ruled by hereditary right rather than popular consent was the first of two triggers for //Les Trois Glorieuses//, the "Three Glorious Days" of the July Revolution. Upon the abdication of Napoleon in 1814, continental Europe, and France in particular, was in a state of disarray. The Congress of Vienna met to redraw the continent's political map. Although there were many European countries attending the congress, there were four major powers that controlled the decision making: United Kingdom, represented by foreign secretary Viscount Castlereagh; Austria, represented by chief minister (and chairman of the congress) Klemens, Fürst von Metternich; Russia, represented by Emperor Alexander I; and Prussia, represented by King Frederick William III. Another very influential person at the Congress was Charles Maurice de Talleyrand, a French diplomat under Napoleon. Although France was considered an enemy state, Talleyrand was allowed to attend the Congress because he claimed that he had only cooperated with Napoleon under duress. Talleyrand proposed that Europe be restored to its "legitimate" borders and governments; a plan that, with some changes, was accepted by members of the Congress. France returned to its 1789 borders and the House of Bourbon, deposed by the Revolution, was restored to the throne. In the eyes of the Congress, the political situation in France and Europe was now back to normal. However, the new king, Louis XVIII, knew that ideas of nationalism and democracy still lingered in his country; hence the establishment and signing of the //Charte constitutionnelle française//, the French Constitution otherwise known as //La Charte//. A document both liberal and monarchical, //La Charte// was the second trigger of the July Revolution. - On 16 September 1824, after a lingering illness of several months, the 69-year-old Louis XVIII died childless. Therefore his younger brother, Charles, aged 66, inherited the throne of France. On 27 September Charles X, as he was now known, made his state entry into Paris to popular acclaim. During the ceremony, while presenting the King the keys to the city, the comte de Chabrol, Prefect of the Seine, declared: "Proud to possess its new king, Paris can aspire to become the queen of cities by its magnificence, as its people aspire to be foremost in its fidelity, its devotion, and its love."But eight months later, the mood of the capital had sharply worsened in its opinion of the new king. The causes of this dramatic shift in public opinion were many, but the main two were: Critics of the first accused the King and his new ministry of pandering to the Catholic Church, and by so doing violating guarantees of equality of religious belief as specified in //La Charte//. The second matter, that of financial indemnities, was far more opportunistic than the first. This was because since the restoration of the monarchy, there had been demands from all groups to settle matters of property ownership; to reduce, if not eliminate, the uncertainties in the real estate market both in Paris and in France. But, despite what should have been a popular reaction to the proposal, liberal opponents, many of whom were frustrated Bonapartists, began a whispering campaign that Charles X was only proposing this in order to shame those who had not emigrated. Both measures, they claimed, were nothing more than clever subterfuge meant to bring about the destruction of //La Charte//. Up to this time, thanks to the popularity of the Chamber of Peers with the people of Paris, the King's relationship with the elite -- both of the right and left -- had remained solid. This, too, was about to change. On 18 March the liberal majority in the Chamber of Deputies made the Address of the 221 against the king and Polignac's ministry. On 12 April, propelled by both genuine conviction and the spirit of independence, the Chamber of Deputies roundly rejected the government's proposal to change the inheritance laws. The popular leftist newspaper //Le Constitutionnel// pronounced this refusal "a victory over the forces of counter-revolutionaries and reactionism"[3] The popularity of both the Chamber of Peers and the Chamber of Deputies skyrocketed, and the popularity of the King and his ministry dropped. This became unmistakable when on 16 April 1827, while reviewing the //Garde Royale// in the Champ de Mars, the King was greeted with icy silence, many of the spectators refusing even to remove their hats. Charles X "later told Orléans that, 'although most people present were not too hostile, some looked at times with terrible expressions'." Because of what it perceived to be growing, relentless, and increasingly vitriolic criticism of both the government and the Church, the government of Charles X introduced into the Chamber of Deputies a proposal for a law tightening censorship, especially in regard to the newspapers. The Chamber, for its part, objected so violently that the humiliated government had no choice but to withdraw its proposals. Then, on the grounds that it had behaved in an offensive manner towards the crown, on 30 April the King abruptly dissolved the National Guard of Paris, a voluntary group of citizens and an ever reliable conduit between the monarchy and the people. Cooler heads were appalled. "[I] would rather have my head cut off," wrote a noble from the Rhineland upon hearing the news, "than have counseled such an act: the only further measure needed to cause a revolution is censorship."That came in July 1830 when, on Sunday, 25 July Charles X signed the July Ordinances, also known as "The Ordinances of Saint-Cloud". On Monday, 26 July they were published in the leading conservative newspaper in Paris, //Le Moniteur//. On Tuesday, 27 July the revolution began in earnest //Les trois journées de juillet//, and the end of the Bourbon monarchy
 * The imposition of the death penalty for anyone profaning the Host of the Catholic Church (see Anti-Sacrilege Act).
 * The provisions for financial indemnities for properties confiscated by the 1789 Revolution and the First Empire of Napoleon. These indemnities to be paid to any one, whether noble or non-noble, who had been declared "enemies of the Revolution".

It was during the "July Days" of 1830 that a Bourbon monarch, Charles X, was overthrown and replaced by another king, Louis-Philippe d'Orléans. But the French example was followed in many parts of Europe in the same year. These all failed, with the exception of Belgium, which managed to obtain its independence from the Dutch in 1830. In Poland, Italy and Germany the nationalist and liberal revolts were mercilessly crushed. King Charles X king, Louis-Philippe d'Orléans
