Explanation:

The French Revolution of 1830, also known as the July Revolution, was the throwing off of Charles X of France from power. His cousin Louis-Philippe, the Duc d'Orléans became king. However, after 18 hard years on the throne, he, also, would be taken off the position of king. It showed the change from one kind of monarchy to another. This change was from the Bourbon Restoration to the July Monarchy. This also marked the change of power from the House of Bourbon to the House of Orléans. People who supported Bourbon would be called Legitimists. Supporters of Louis-Phillipe were called Orleanists. Louis-Philippe was king of the French (not King of France) until the French Revolution of 1848.

 

On September 16, 1824, Charles X came to the throne of France. He was the younger brother of Louis XVIII. When Napoléon Bonaparte was defeated, he had become King of France. Both Louis and Charles ruled because of their birth, not because a great number of people wanted them to. This was the first of two things that began Les Trois Glorieuses, the "Three Glorious Days" of the July Revolution.

When Napoleon abdicated in 1814, Europe, and mostly France, was in great confusion. The Congress of Vienna met to draw the continent's political map again. A great number of European countries came to the congress. However, there were four most important powers that controlled the decision. These powers were the United Kingdom, Austria, Russia, and Prussia, represented by King Frederick William III. Another very important person at the Congress was Charles Maurice de Talleyrand. He was a French diplomat under Napoleon. France was considered an enemy state.

Talleyrand suggested that Europe go back to its first, "legitimate" government. He meant the government before Napoleon. This plan was largely accepted by members of the Congress. France went back to its 1789 borders and the House of Bourbon came back 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, felt that ideas of nationalism and democracy were still in his country. So, they made and signed the Charte constitutionnelle française, the French Constitution. It is also known as La Charte. This was the second thing that began the July Revolution.

The first upheaval took place in France in July 1830. The Bourbon

kings who had been restored to power during the conservative

reaction after 1815, were now overthrown by liberal revolutionaries

who installed a constitutional monarchy with Louis Philippe at its

head. When France sneezes, Metternich once remarked, "the rest of

Europe catches cold. The July Revolution sparked an uprising in

Brussels which led to Belgium breaking away from the United

Kingdom of the Netherlands.

An event that mobilised nationalist feelings among the educated elite

across Europe was the Greek war of independence. Greece had

been part of the Ottoman Empire since the fifteenth century. The

growth of revolutionary nationalism in Europe sparked off a struggle

for independence amongst the Greeks which began in 1821.

Nationalists in Greece got support from other Greeks living in exile

and also from many West Europeans who had sympathies for ancient

Greek culture. Poets and artists lauded Greece as the cradle of

European civilisation and mobilised public opinion to support its

Struggle against a Muslim empire. The English poet Lord Byron

organised funds and later went to fight in the war, where he died of

fever in 1824. Finally, the Treaty of Constantinople of 1832

recognised Greece as an independent nation.
