Why were Louis Philippe and his prime minister Guizot overthrown in the Revolution of 1848? Select one: a. An influential group
Vikki [24]

Answer: d. They cracked down on people who were having dinners in support of Republicanism

Explanation:

Louis Philippe was the last King of France and was overthrown in the Revolution of 1948. This was by no means an isolated incident however as discontent had been growing in the kingdom for a while.

Discontent at poor economic reforms, Louis's refusal to grant political reforms, unemployment and bad harvests were some of the problems that bombarded Louis in his last few years as King and led to people opening calling for a Republic.

Activists who sought this Republic needed a way to meet and make their views known and as they could not do this through political gatherings and demonstrations which were outlawed, they turned to banquets.

In these banquets/ dinners, the people were able to speak their mind and criticize the regime to their hearts content. This did not sit well with the Government who decided to outlaw banquets in February 1948. This was <em>the Straw that broke the camel's back</em> and saw the people revolt against the monarchy. Louise then abdicated and fled to England.
