Louis XVIII of France

Louis XVIII was the king of France from 1814 to 1824, with a brief interruption during Napoleon’s Hundred Days in 1815. He belonged to the Bourbon dynasty and was known for restoring the monarchy after Napoleon’s fall. His reign aimed to balance traditional monarchy with modern changes, and he often sought a constitutional government that limited royal power. Louis XVIII was moderate and pragmatic, attempting to maintain stability and peace in France following years of upheaval during the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars. His rule helped re-establish the monarchy’s legitimacy and continuity in France.
