What French empire was the  Imperial Bonapartist regime of  Charles-Louis Napoléon Bonaparte?
Second French Empire The French Second Empire (French: "Second Empire" ) was the Imperial Bonapartist regime of Napoleon III from 1852 to 1870, between the Second Republic and the Third Republic, in France.
Orléanist The Orléanists were a French right-wing (except for 1814–1830) faction which arose out of the French Revolution, as opposed to Legitimists. It governed France 1830–1848 in the "July Monarchy" of king Louis Philippe I. It is generally seen as a transitional period dominated by the conservative Orleanist doctrine in economic and foreign policies. The chief leaders included Prime Minister François Guizot. It went into exile during the reign of Emperor Napoleon III and collapsed with the establishment of the Third Republic in 1870.
