The French Revolution of 1830, also known as the July Revolution, Second French Revolution or Trois Glorieuses in French, saw the overthrow of King Charles X, the French Bourbon monarch, and the ascent of his cousin Louis-Philippe, Duke of Orléans, who himself, after 18 precarious years on the throne, would in turn be overthrown in 1848.

Answer:

As a result of the violent revolts in France in July 1830, Charles X gave up the throne and fled for Great Britain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Charles X was King of France and Navarre from 1824 until his forced abdication in 1830. He succeeded Louis XVIII and reigned for almost six years until the Revolution of July 1830, which forced his abdication and elected Louis Philip I, Duke of Orleans as the new king.

Upon the death of his brother, Louis XVIII in 1824, who had restored the Bourbon monarchy in France, ascended the throne. He tried to restore the Old Regime, which brought him enormous unpopularity.

In March 1830 the conflict with the assembly began, which opposed the appointment by the king of Auguste Polignac as prime minister. The House of Representatives, having denied a vote of confidence to the Polignac ministry, was disbanded, but the elections were in favor of the opposition. Despite the success of the Algiers expedition (July 4), the ordinances of July 25, 1830, dissolving the House, which by the way had not yet met, amending the Charter and suppressing press freedom, sparked the 1830 revolution and the abdication of the monarch on August 2.

Charles X first went to the United Kingdom, then moved to Prague and Görz (now Gorizia, Italy), where he died on November 6, 1836.
