ARTICLES RELATED TO Second French Empire | | | |  Second French Empire: Encyclopedia II - Second French Empire - Rule of Napoleon IIIAlthough the machinery of government was almost the same under the Second Empire as it had been under the First, its founding principles were different.

| | | | Second French Empire: Encyclopedia II - 19th century - Europe In 1801, the Irish parliament voted to merge Ireland with England, thus creating the United Kingdom.

| | | | Second French Empire: Encyclopedia II - Napoleon III of France - Early life Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte, as he was known before becoming emperor, was the son of Hortense de Beauharnais, who was the daughter of Napoléon I's wife Josephine de Beauharnais by her first marriage. The identity of his biological father remains a subject of speculation, given his unhappily married mother's record of extramarital liaisons. His father for the record, however, was Hortense's husband, Louis Bonaparte, a younger brother of Napoléon I, and his whole career was built upon the (supposed) fact that he was the nephew of Napoléon I. ...

Emperor - Europe & Byzantium.
In the Roman tradition a large variety in the meaning and importance of the Imperial form of monarchy developed: in intention it was always the highest office, but it could as well fall down to a redundant title for nobility that had never been near to the "Empire" they were supposed to be reigning. Also the name of the position split in several b ...

| | | | Second French Empire: Encyclopedia II - Château de Bagatelle - History The château was initially built as a small hunting lodge built for the Maréchal d'Estrées in 1720. In 1775, the Comte d'Artois, Louis XVI's brother, purchased the property. The Comte soon had the existing house torn down with plans to rebuild. Famously, Marie-Antoinette wagered against the Comte, her brother-in-law, that the new château could not be completed within three months. The Comte engaged the neoclassical architect François-Joseph Belanger to design the building that remains in the park today. The Comte won his bet, completing the house in sixty-three days. It is estimated that the project, which came to include ...
