| - | The '''House of Bourbon''' is an important European [[royal house]], a branch of the [[Capetian dynasty]]. Bourbon kings first ruled [[Kingdom of Navarre|Navarre]] and [[France]] in the 16th century. By the 18th century, members of the Bourbon dynasty also held thrones in [[Spain]], [[Naples]] & [[Sicily]], and [[Parma]]. Spain and [[Luxembourg]] currently have Bourbon [[monarch]]s. | + | # A city, the capital of Parma. |

| - | Bourbon monarchs ruled Navarre (from 1555) and France (from 1589) until the 1792 overthrow of the monarchy during the [[French Revolution]]. Restored briefly in 1814 and definitively in 1815 after the fall of the [[First French Empire]], the senior line of the Bourbons was finally overthrown in the [[July Revolution]] of 1830. A [[cadet branch]], the [[House of Orléans]], then ruled for 18 years (1830–1848), until it too was overthrown. The [[Prince of Condé|Princes of Condé]] (Bourbon-Condé) were a cadet branch of the Bourbon-Vendômes and, in turn, were senior to the [[Prince of Conti|Princes of Conti]] (Bourbon-Conti). Both these lines became extinct in the early nineteenth century. | + | |
