Which monarch is listed as the King of France in the notes?
Correct Answer:
Louis XVII
Explanation:
The idea being tested is how monarchs are listed in sources, including those who never actually ruled but belong to the royal line. Louis XVII was the son of Louis XVI and would have become king after his father, but he died in prison as a child during the Revolution. Because of his place in the succession, some notes or genealogies list him as a king in the line of succession, even though he never reigned. That’s why he appears in the notes as the King of France in this context. The other names did indeed rule in reality: Louis XVI reigned, and Louis XVIII and Charles X ruled during the Bourbon Restoration.
