What an enlightened regent and such an academic. I love that he opened the library and reprinted books!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting again Ann !
@@TheKingsofFrance his daughter Louis Diane was married to François Louis de Bourbon Prince of Conti one of the members of The Holy Brotherhood of the Glorious Pederasts (will you talk about Charles Du Berry)
@@TheKingsofFrance Philippine Elisabeth was engaged to Carlos III but she died before the wedding
@@TheKingsofFrance Phlippe was a political enemy of Louis Auguste Du Maine but I think there was personal hatred too I think he got the enmity towards Louis Auguste Du Maine from his mother Liselotte
The twenty five years 1715-1740 were the best years of the eighteenth century for the French people, with peace, stability and prosperity. This was thanks to Philippe d'Orléans and his successor the Cardinal de Fleury. The Enlightenment came to fruition, while the Rococo style followed the Baroque, Watteau in many ways sums up the Regency era. Thank you for another enjoyable video.
Thank you Patrick. I will do a video on de Fleury in the New Year...
Agree, Fleury was a steady hand too and did well overcoming challenges like the Jansensist uprising. I like to say that while there were upheavals and misery in 18 century France, there was a lot that went right also, making France a powerhouse in science, literature, art, trade. And, Watteaus painting, magnificent.
Lots of intrigue in one family 👑! Merci 🌸!
Thank you for watching again Christine !
I think I detect a hint of jealousy on the King's part I think he despised the fact that Monseiur's kids were just more capable than Le Grand Dauphin
Thank you! Wonderful storytelling!
Thank you Charles, glad you were here !
We owe a lot of Parisiennne town houses to this man's credit. The court didn't return to Versailles until the reign of Louis XV.
You are absolutely right … thank you for watching again !
Thanks for the upload…I really enjoyed it
Thank you so much for watching and being here Sarita.
Hi, Awesome live video I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon have a great day 😀
Thank you Michelle 😻
Thank you for these!
Thank YOU for watching !
It did surprise me that you didn't included the conspiration de Cellamare in depth which gives a good impression about the relationship of the Spanish and French Bourbons. I love your selection of pictures. Thank you for your work.
I might do a separate video about it… which is why I didnt. Thank you for watching and commenting André.
He kept the country for the future king... a rare case! I love the video! Thanks!!!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it !
Well done and very enjoyable !
Thank you so much Kristen !
His daughter Charlotte Aglae was known at court as Mademoiselle de Valois her closest friend was Chevalier D`Orlean son of Le Bel de La Boissiere Charlotte Aglae`s daughter Marie Terese married Louis Jean Marie de Bourbon Le Duc de Penthievre
I still can't get over the fact that he and his mother who criticized everything that Louis XIV did treated his wife horribly. As always your video is great these short videos are the only thing that makes me open youtube.
Thank you for your lovely compliment... I'm really glad you're enjoying my videos !
@@TheKingsofFrance Thank you for replying
thanx so much !! brilliant!
Thank YOU for watching !!!
You're good. Perfect summary. Again.
Thank you … always so happy to see you !!!
@@TheKingsofFrance 👍🏻😊🤗
If you would ever be willing to do a series translating the works of La Palatine I think it would be wildly popular 💕
I might do a video on her letters at one point, but there's a LOT to be said so I'd have to do some serious digging first !
Merci. Bon weekend
Merci à toi !
He Was Actually The Nephew Of Louis XIV,Not His Cousin,But In Your Language They Are The Same,But I Know You Will Correct This Later. Anyway,The Life Of Phillippe II,Duke Of Orleans Was Very Interesting,He Was Interested In Science,And Had Great Military Prowess!!! It Was Very Fortunate That He Took Over The Regency And Handed Over A France That Was Economically And Socially STABLE To His Younger Third Cousin Louis XV When He Came Of Age. Another Great Video,I Can't Wait For The Next One About Henrietta Maria,The Sister Of Louis XIII And Queen Consort Of Charles I Of England!!! She Brought The Tradition Of Naming The Eldest Daughter Of The English/British Monarch Princess Royal. I Look Forward To Watching!!! 👑❤💙🇫🇷
Changing it as we speak !
To bad he wasn’t king cause he would of done a way better job than Louis XV
@@TheKingsofFrance Charlotte Aglae that comes from Aglae the youngest and most beautiful of the Graces
Charlotte Aglae and Louis Diane are my favorites among his children
I'm sure Louis XV did nothing at all to wreck the perfectly good kingdom Philippe left him. Certainly nothing that would lead to a Revolution in less than a hundred years...
Nope. Nothing at all… thank you for watching again !!!
I think I have read somewhere that Philippe bought an expensive diamond just after he came to regency which Louis XIV had refused earlier. I think the diamond was placed on Louis XV 's crown. Yes Louis XV didn't rule himself and let his mistresses and prime ministers take control of the Kingdom which led to downfall. But Louis XIV on the other hand did not have prime ministers at all.
Adelaide seems to be a popular name in this time period
It’s a beautiful name, don’t you think ? thank you for watching…
The capital of South Australia is called Adelaide -a beautiful city.It was named after queen Adelaide of the U.K.the German wife of king William IV who reigned just before queen Victoria.Another famous woman called Adelaide was the empress Adelaide of the Holy Roman Empire -wife of the emperor Otto I -lived in 10th Century.Adele is a variant of "Adelaide" and comes from a Germanic word meaning "noble."
Thank you! My favorite passages in Saint Simon are those in which he attempts to get Philippe out of Paris and rule from Versailles.
Thank you so much for watching. I'm working on gather material about the Duc De St-Simon and will be posting a video about him in a little while.
Thank you
Thank YOU for watching !
The French royal family really needed more Phillips...
Thank you so much for watching and commenting !
Fabulous!
Glad you liked it !
Thank you, I really enjoy your work and the wonderful images youve put together. Also, the comments from others here are great aswell. I wondered if the Missippi bubble collapse and John Law should not have mentioned. (As an aside, John Law is interesting himself, whilst being disgraced back then, was arguably an early visionary of Fiat currency which took off centuries later. )
Really glad you're enjoying my channel. I'm really happy about all the comments too. Overall this is a lovely and positive community, and i really love that !
According to Liselotte his daughter Louise Adelaide was the most beautiful out of her sisters but as far as it goes for me I can't pick between Charlotte Aglae and Louise Dianne Liselotte says she never sow finer teeth than those of Louise Adelaide she says "they are like a row of pearls"
Charles Du Berry is my favorite out of Le Grand Dauphin's sons because I think he resembles his father physically Liselotte gave him the nickname Berry Bon Coeur (Berry good hearth)
Louis Charles his son from Florance Pelegrinne was the Archbishop of Cambrai the painting of Louis Charles we see in this video is painted by Hyacinthe Rigaud
Hello from California!! Love your videos! Minor comment is Philippe was the nephew of Louis XIV.
Thank you, and yes, i always make that mistake with my translations, as in my language, the word for cousin and nephew is the same, and I keep mixing them up and forgetting. I apologize ! Thank you for watching.
@@TheKingsofFrance it's okay
Can anyone suggest great movies for me that focus on the Bourbon kings of France. I just watched Versailles on Netflix and Reign the CW series where I learnt that originally the family hailed from Navarre. I find the French monarchs /dynasties greatly under appreciated and would like to watch films or series based on even earlier dynasties like the Valois, Capetians(longest ruling dynasty), Carolingian & Merovingian (1st dynasty that arose from the fall of Rome).
Thank you for watching and commenting ! I'll follow the recommendations of others concerning movies !
Hi - theres a good film , The Universal Spider , about Louis X1 .. ( english subtitles, free, on youtube. ) - all can say is after watching it, I can see how he got his moniker. // Yes, I watched Versailles, and loved it too. Id love to know the name of the chamber music
they play at the start of each show. It gives me goosebumps!! What an experience it would have been to sip champagne at one of Louis garden parties on the lawns of Versaille.
Shouldn’t the title be ‘Nephew of the Sun King’ rather than ‘Cousin’?
Yes, but in my language they are the same and with translating i keep forgetting that in English it is not the same. I apologize.
I will change it, thank you !!!
Thank you so much again! Was he a relative to that man who called himself Philippe Egalite (pardon for the missing accent) during The Great French Revolution?
Yes, he was his ancestor. I will be doing a video about Philippe Egalité at a later stage. Thank you for watching.
@@TheKingsofFrance thank you for answering! I think Philippe Egalite was a very horrible man. It's hard to imagine how he behaved the way he did. Being a relative to Louis XVI and still voting for his death. By the way, I love the way you pronounce the names. 🤗❤️
@@mimfi I agree… he has little to speak for him, especially when it comes to his betrayal of Louis XVI…
Le Petit Dophin`s son ho died from smallpox was named Louis Joseph Xavier
One more thing about Charles Du Berry he was the Duke of Berry only de jure he never did held de facto power in Berry
New Orléans Louisiana was named after him I believe ⚜️
Thank you so much for watching and commenting !
He died at 49! That was a shocker! Glad he could help reboot the Enlightenment, FFS!
72 years of everybody under the thumb of Louis Quatorze is plenty and then some.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting !
And I'd add that even if he did had 3 bastards Louis Charles Jean Phillippe and Angelique he never did acknowledged any of them even though he did what he could to get them stable careers and life prospects
The contrast between the absolutist Louis IV and his nephew is stark, however for a good deal of Louis IV's life, their sexual morals were the same. I prefer Louis, who did not hide a work of atheism within a prayer book. Though sadly for me as a Reformed Christian, he did institute the Edict of Fontainebleau.
I understand where you're coming from... Luckily we live in times where (in most parts of the world) religious freedom is a right for all.
@@TheKingsofFrance Yes!
La belle d la brassiere was a lady in waiting to Liselotte but she lost her position when she got pregnant with Phillippe's son
Sounds like a really good regent. Too bad all of his good work was undone.
Thank you for watching and commenting once more, I really appreciate your support !
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much once more Anastasia !!
And Yes
The Crescent City
The Big Easy birth place of JAZZ was named after him.
La Nouvelle Orléans
Thank you so much for sharing this info !
Assassin's creed unity is a game which takes place in the French revolution
Oh, I don’t know it ! Too old for it I think !
@@TheKingsofFrance your too old for games right?
Could you do francis the 1
Yes, I'll put him on 'the list' !
@@TheKingsofFrance thank you
La belle de la brassiere how does that translate in English
Will you at some point talk about Louis the son of Phillippe II
Not at this point… maybe later…
@@TheKingsofFrance
Well after Le bon Roy Hanry what's next
Didnt Louis XIV and Monsieur fight over Philippe II's infidelity which caused Monsieur to have a heart attack?
Whether or not it was over his infidelity I cannot say, but Louis XIV did not care for Philippe II at all, as he indeed found him to be too loose of character. They did argue about Philippe II on the eve of Monsieur's death, and Louis therefore took the death of his brother very hard.
i have to wonder what was his relationship whit Louis Vermandois the boy was part of the Brotherhood Monsieur`s inner circle i`d like to know what did Monsieur Le Regent thought of Vermandois
That's a good question... I don't have anything out of the top of my head, but they must've met for sure...
@@TheKingsofFrance one thing I don't get if Monseiur Le Regent hated the Legitimes how could Charlotte Aglae marry off her daughter to the son of Louis Alexander
@@TheKingsofFrance honestly if I was in Louis XIV's shoes I'd send Vermandois to be raised by Monseiur Colbert after all his wife raised Marie Anne
Some of these pictures look like the same people?
You have to keep in mind that many of the portraits were painted by the same artists who almost always used the same style (eg the portraits of Hyacinthe Rigaud)... Add to this the fashions of the time and the usage of wigs, and yes, I can very much understand that you feel like the pictures all look alike.
VidIq fam ;D
You found my video through VidIq ? May I ask how ? But welcome nonetheless. I hope you enjoyed my video.
@@TheKingsofFrance I think maybe you were in a channel audit and since I dig the baroque age I looked you up ;D
@@jbainbridge22 Yes they did audit my channel... Did you have one for yours yet ?
@@TheKingsofFrance This is my channel just for watching and chat I'm starting a movie review channel. Currently learning video editing for my first upload :P so no audit yet.
Where are the ancestors of these people. Is there any of the lineage living today? All these kids gotta be some lineage still living
Yes their descendants can nowadays be found in many of the european royal houses of Europe. The father of Philippe II D'Orléans, Philippe, is nowadays even called 'the Grandfather of Europe' due to this. Thank you so much for watching, and welcome to my channel as I believe you are new ? I hope you enjoy my videos and that you'll stick around for a while !
Was he really a libertine did he had affairs whit man like his father Monseiur
Libertine here is meant in being 'devoid' of morals, as he was an atheist, which was quite unusual at the time.
@@TheKingsofFrance devoid of morality or not he was amazing but I don't like the fact he was an enemy of Louis Auguste Du Maine
Okay, french royal family was not very imaginative with names...
Haha I guess not. Thank you for watching.
