Answer:
Between 1830 and 1850 the French proletariat grew substantially. In Lyon, this class even led to some upheavals, which were however harshly repressed by the authorities. After these popular uprisings, secret societies of workers, linked to the republican movement and the utopian socialism movement, sprang up all over France
In the period between 1845 and 1847, France was plagued by two years of bad agricultural harvests, mainly caused by the potato pest, which had a higher incidence in this country and in Ireland. In 1847 the situation worsened with an economic crisis, resulting in the fall in wages and the closure of countless factories. The instability, however, came from behind. In the last years of the reign of Louis XVIII (1814-24) and throughout the reign of Charles X (1824-1830), serious internal disturbances followed. This monarch decided to entrust the head of government to the prince of Polignac. Far from solving the problems, the new statesman worried about a successful expedition to Algeria.
Supported by bankers like Casimire Pérere and with ministers like Thiers or Guizot, the new monarchy is able to impose a climate of peace and prosperity. Popular revolts followed one another to the extent that the National Guard itself supported them, adhering to sedition.
In 1848 a popular uprising was being prepared which reaped some sympathy on the part of the bourgeoisie. The industrial bourgeoisie in particular achieved the reform of the right to vote and the reduction of the electoral census. The workers demanded the establishment of a republic and demanded a reform.
Later, in 1852, the French bourgeoisie proclaimed the empire headed by Napoleon III, who invested in the development of commerce and industry, and continued a war of conquests between 1854 and 1856. First it attacked Russia and then Africa and Indochina, always maintaining the power of the triumphant bourgeoisie.
