Cool new content. The page however will need an opening sentence that provides the key definition of the July Monarchy so readers can decide whether they want to read on. -Gomm 18:01, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

"last monarchy"
From a technical standpoint, the Second empire would be the last monarchy, not that of Louis-Philippe, who was the last king, not the last monarch. -R.E. Johnson —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.63.240.56 (talk) 00:15, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Flag of the Bourbon Kingdom
The French article about the flag of France (Drapeau de la France) says explicitely that the de facto national flag of the Kingdom of France was a simple white flag - the lily banner was only used in presence of members of the royal family except the King: When he was present, the white flag had been hoised. To cut a long story short: Please do not insert the lily banner (Pavillon royale de France.svg) anymore, it's the wrong flag here. Louis88

You Francophones, thanks for your contributions, but please don't underestimate the differences between French and English diction.Wegesrand (talk) 10:00, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey all, In France, you do not use "Royaume de France" for the July Monarchy but "Royaume des Français" it's one of the symbol of the political contract between the people of France and the King, Louis-Philippe, i'm not english speaker and I don't know if a distinct term exist in english but do not use "Royaume des Français" to design the french term fot it. In fact, the article notice the difference about the title of the King but not the name of the countyry.

The phrase "Pushed to the throne" in the beginning of Overview is rather odd. Was he pressured into ascending to the throne? Smurfton (talk) 00:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

The Name of the Regime
Wouldn't the name of the July Monarchy be the "French Kingdom" not the "Kingdom of France" since King Louis Philipe was crowned "King of the French" not "King of France"? You might think that this is nitpicking, but it is actually important to French ideals at the time. The reason he was called "King of the French" was because "King of France" implies that France is but a dynastic possession of his, not a leader who belongs to the French national people. When Napoleon the First was crowned "Emperor of the French" his country wasn't called the "Empire of France" like the Absolutist "Empire of Russia" for instance, it was called the "French Empire" related to his Imperial title as the leader of a nation, not the holder of a large possession. I really do think the July Monarchy should be given the same respect and be called the "French Kingdom" not "Kingdom of France". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.251.153.81 (talk) 20:59, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Hello, actually, even if he was titled King of the French, the name of the country remained Kingdom of France. You can see it on the official gazette of the government that was published between 1830 ans 1848. The gazette was titled : Bulletins des Lois du Royaume de France, Règne de Louis-Philippe Ier, Roi des Français, which gives Bulletins of Laws of the Kingdom of France, Reign of Louis-Philippe I, King of the French.

Two recurring issues
The "conversion of the rents" is mentioned several times; this term requires definition. Likewise, mention is repeatedly made of parliamentary debate over "the secret funds," but this term is not defined. Can a specialist help with these? Thank you et merci bien.

Problem with the name
Hello, there is a problem with the official name of the Kingdom.

Even if the king was titled King of the French, the name of the country remained Kingdom of France. You can see it on the official gazette of the government that was published between 1830 ans 1848. The gazette was titled : Bulletins des Lois du Royaume de France, Règne de Louis-Philippe Ier, Roi des Français, which gives Bulletins of Laws of the Kingdom of France, Reign of Louis-Philippe I, King of the French.

First issue (1830)

Last issue (1848)

So I advise to change the name to Kingdom of France, with an efn template note to explain as I just did.
