In 1873, anticipating a restoration of the monarchy by the largely monarchist National Assembly that had been elected following the fall of Napoleon III, de Paris withdrew his claims to the French throne in favor of the legitimist claimant, the Comte de Chambord. It was assumed by most that the Comte de Paris was Chambord's heir, and would thus be able to succeed to the throne upon the childless Chambord's death, reuniting the two claims that had rent French monarchists since 1830. However, Chambord's refusal to recognize the tricolor as the French flag sabotaged hopes of a restoration, and the stodgy old legitimist died in 1883 without ever specifically recognizing his Orleanist rival as his heir. 1865 (MDCCCLXV) is a common year starting on Sunday. ... 1951 (MCMLI) was a common year starting on Monday; see its calendar. ...
