First Restoration (1814) • Bourbon family (a la Louis XV and XVI) return to the throne (Britain’s choice—Austria preferred Napoleon’s heir, and Russia the Orléans family) • Louis XVIII—offered to Napoleon if he’d return France to its 1792 state, but he refused. • Charter of 1814: Creation of Chamber of Peers and Chamber of Deputies (though these roles were mostly consultative) • Only 1% of people in France could vote at the time of the First Restoration. Louis XVIII
