In 1814, during the first restoration of Louis XVIII, Louis Philippe returned to France. In 1830, Charles X attempted to implement a suppression law, triggering the French July Revolution of 1830 (July 27-30). On July 31st, the Legislative Council elected him as Regent of the Kingdom. Two days later, Charles abdicated and on August 9th, Louis Philippe was crowned as the King of France. He took a middle ground between the right-wing extreme monarchists, Socialists, and other Republicans to consolidate his power. He accepted a constitutional monarchy, and people often saw kings holding umbrellas walking by the Seine River, earning him the nickname of "bourgeois kings holding umbrellas" by historians. However, the political situation remained turbulent. The old forces, republicans, and more radical factions of the Bourbon dynasty are all seeking opportunities to overthrow his rule.

In his memoir, Tocqueville, the author of "The Old System and the Great Revolution," evaluates him in this way This person is a political skeptic from the 19th century and also from the 18th century. He has no faith in himself or anyone else. He is a person who is inherently passionate about power and enjoys shameless courtiers. His flaws are similar to those of his time, and he is the disaster that makes illness incurable. Indeed, the Duke of Orleans, who is known as the Citizen King, is a vulgar and vulgar mediocre person (Orthodox satire on him as just a barricade king, because his crown was bestowed upon him by the mob behind the barricade), he had the cunning and practical spirit of the middle class, but lacked higher goals, and could only implement a rule that lacked both virtue and authority, managing the country like running a grocery store. This king with a pear shaped head was also self aware and did not expect to achieve much success, Just to firmly suppress the orthodox and radical Republicans, while balancing the movement and resistance within the Constitutionalist (Orleans Party) in an attempt to protect themselves.
