List of French monarchs

The monarchs of the Kingdom of France ruled from the establishment of the Kingdom of the West Franks in 843 until the fall of the Second French Empire in 1870, with several interruptions. Between the period from King Charles the Bald in 843 to King Louis XVI in 1792, France had 45 kings. Adding the 7 emperors and kings after the French Revolution, this comes to a total of 52 monarchs of France.
