July Revolution

The July Revolution of 1830 was a political uprising in France against King Charles X’s increasingly autocratic rule. Citizens and liberals opposed his attempts to strengthen royal power and restrict freedoms. The uprising involved street protests and clashes, leading to the abdication of Charles X. Subsequently, Louis-Philippe became king, representing a shift toward constitutional monarchy and greater political liberalization. This revolution highlighted the desire for democratic reforms and limitations on royal authority, influencing future European movements for constitutional governance.
