Was Louis XVII capable of being king?
For some reason, no. He was seen to be the next king in the eyes of many Royalist after the execution of Louis XVI in January 1793. Remember, Louis- Charles was only 4 years old when the French Revolution occured. His older brother Louis Joseph was educated about kingship and becoming an heir. Louis-Charles did not become the Dauphin of France until after the death of his brother Louis Joseph on June 4, 1789 which was just before the start of the French Revolution. Louis-Charles was almost 8 years old when his father was executed and then got the name Louis XVII. Even though he was educated by his father and mother, but the monachary was being overthrown in that time-even if Louis XVII did escape his life in prison, he would still in some way not be able to be the next king of France.

Why did King Louis rule for 15 minutes?
The 15 minutes is an approximate number. Louis was married to the only surviving child of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. Louis XIX was actually Louis XVI's nephew, making Louis XIX and his wife, Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte, cousins. His father, Louis XVI's brother, was Charles X. Got all of that? In the July Revolution of 1830, the people of France demanded that Charles give up the throne because they hated his policies and felt they were too repressive. He reluctantly granted the wish of the people and abdicated, making Louis XIX the new king. However, the people didn't want Charles' descendants in power either, and, perhaps remembering how her parents' reign ended, Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte pleaded with her husband to abdicate as well. And he did, 20 minutes after becoming King of France. It's disputed because some historians think it's too short of a time frame to recognize.
