Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord was a French statesman who became head of the new government after the fall of Napoleon in 1814. He was later involved in the overthrow of King Charles X, and his succession by King Louis-Phillipe.
Yes, he was, although he had no reigning power. The last real King of France had been Louis XVI who was killed in 1793. Since then, the French made it very clear they did not want one person with absolute power. The Kings after Louis XVI were therefore only King in name. The old regime had died with Louis XVI.
