Best Answer

Louis XVIII, the brother of Louis XVI proclaimed himself King despite claims that Louis XVI had written papers shortly before his execution and given them to his lawyer, accusing his brother of having betrayed the royal cause out of personal ambition and barring him from the succession to the throne. (The comte du Provence, who had always been jealous of Louis XVI because he wanted to be King and thought he'd make a much better King than Louis XVI would be. He betrayed his brother Louis XVI horribly during his reign.)

After Napoleon's domination of Europe from around 1800 to 1814, the rulers of Europe wanted to insure that no one would ever be able to come so close to taking over all of Europe again. To this end, the diplomats from all of the Great Powers met at the Congress of Vienna to negotiate from 1814 to 1815. There they reorganized European boundaries in hopes of creating a stable Europe where coalitions of nations could always ally to defeat one nation that got out of hand. The rulers after Napoleon were dedicated to stopping revolution (like the French Revolution in their own countries). Louis XVIII, whose brother Louis XVI had been executed during the French Revolution, certainly didn't want another revolution in France.
