Orléanistes - Orléanist

Japanese: オルレアン王党派 - オルレアンおうとうは（英語表記）Orléanistes

A political party that claimed the French throne from the House of Orléans. It was formed at the beginning of the French Revolution and continued until the end of the 19th century. During the French Revolution, Philippe Égalité, Duke of Orléans (cousin of Louis XVI), supported the revolution and took a position of constitutional monarchy, which became the basic platform of the Orléan Royalists. During the Restoration, the Orléan Royalists were in conflict with the government as liberal opponents, and came to power with the July Revolution of 1830. The July Monarchy had Louis Philippe, Duke of Orléans (son of the previous Duke of Orléans), as its king, and its support base was among notables such as great merchants, liberal nobles, lawyers, aristocrats from the Napoleonic Empire, and university professors.

オルレアン家によるフランスの王位を要求する政治党派で，フランス革命初期に形成され，19世紀末まで存続した。フランス革命期にオルレアン公フィリップ･エガリテ(ルイ16世の従弟)は，革命を支持し立憲君主制の立場をとったが，これがオルレアン王党派の基本綱領となった。オルレアン王党派は王政復古期には自由主義的反対派として政府と対立し，1830年の七月革命によって政権の座についた。七月王政は，オルレアン公ルイ･フィリップ(先のオルレアン公の子)を国王とし，大商人，自由主義的大貴族，法律家，ナポレオン帝政期の貴族，大学教授などの名士に支持基盤をおいていた。
