Did Palmerston contribute to Louis Philippe's downfall?
Upvote:2
The passage you quote does not actually say that the British statesman Lord Palmerston's disagreement with King Louis Phillippe of France in 1846 had a causal connection to the King's downfall 2 years' later. I am not certain we should read that in.
Indeed, the very next fact we are given, that after his overthrow the King sought and was granted exile in Britain, rather than any other country, suggests they were not on too bad terms.
I do not know if the context of the passages explains it, or just that the author did not express himself in that sentence as clearly as he might.
