Acuñar Francia Charles X

Charles X was a French monarch who reigned as King of France and Navarre from 1824 to 1830. Born Charles Philippe of France on October 9, 1757, he was the son of the Dauphin Louis, the eldest son of Louis XV, and Marie-Josèphe of Saxony. At birth, he was given the title Count of Artois.

During the French Revolution, he emigrated to Europe and joined royalist émigrés who sought to restore the monarchy. After the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1814, the restoration of the monarchy was undertaken, and in 1824, Charles X ascended the throne following the death of his elder brother, Louis XVIII.

His reign was marked by a conservative and authoritarian policy that caused increasing tensions within French society. He sought to restore the old regime and enacted ordinances in 1830 that severely restricted civil liberties, leading to a popular revolt known as "the Three Glorious Days."

This revolt ultimately led to his deposition and the end of absolute monarchy in France. Charles X abdicated in favor of his grandson, the Duke of Bordeaux, but the latter never ascended the throne. The monarchy was replaced by a constitutional monarchy with the advent of Louis-Philippe, a descendant of the younger branch of the Bourbons, who was proclaimed King of the French. After his abdication, Charles X went into exile in Great Britain, where he passed away in 1836.
