<P> The French Revolution of 1830 , also known as the July Revolution ( révolution de Juillet ) , Second French Revolution or Trois Glorieuses in French ( `` Three Glorious ( Days ) '' ) , saw the overthrow of King Charles X , the French Bourbon monarch , and the ascent of his cousin Louis Philippe , Duke of Orléans , who himself , after 18 precarious years on the throne , would in turn be overthrown in 1848 . It marked the shift from one constitutional monarchy , under the restored House of Bourbon , to another , the July Monarchy ; the transition of power from the House of Bourbon to its cadet branch , the House of Orléans ; and the replacement of the principle of hereditary right by popular sovereignty . Supporters of the Bourbon would be called Legitimists , and supporters of Louis Philippe Orléanists . </P>
