He'll have to fight it out with Napoléon VII Charles.

I wonder if there are any of Maximilian's heirs laying claim to the Mexican throne?

Was Maximilian (late emperor of Mexico) a Habsburg? I think he was. There are quite a few of them still kicking around I think.

Lordy,
that movie was so bad. I was waiting for Marie to start chewing gum and break in to Valleygirl speak.

In the Kirsten Dunst movie half of it was dedicated to Marie and Louis' small talk at dinner and in bed. Very exciting. /s

Now we are even outsourcing pretenders to the throne to India.

If the French people (er, non-Muslim French people) become desperate enough for a national unifying fixture, reinstallation of the monarchy is an effective option.

Actually Mexico started off as a monarchy before it became a republic. Here's the first imperial family's story. (Nowadays everybody's got a website.)

Thanks, Civ.

I have heard this story before, and read portions of the book. Interesting.

Geneology is fascinating and an important tool in understanding Western History.

Surely the family that calls themselves the heirs to the throne of France, Henri, Comte de Paris, part of a loathsome monarchist family full o adulterers and divorced people. Henri refuses to communicate with his own father and sold the family jewels and properties at auction.
