French revolution
Jules de Polignac is the son of Jules de Polignac (1746-1817), captain with the regiment Royal-Dragons, and of Yolande de Polastron (1749-1793), countess then duchess of Polignac, friend of the queen Marie Antoinette and controlling Children of France.

Restoration
He becomes Foreign Minister and President of the Council in 1829. Prime Minister of France of the August 8th 1829 with the July 30th 1830, it had to face the revolution of 1830.
In 1829, it has by Charles X to succeed the ministry Martignac (1828), which was the last attempt at compromise of the king with the parliamentary majority libérale.
Polignac imposes a government ultra, reactionary (ex: Bourdonnaye with the Ministry for the Interior, but this one was an actor of the second White Terreur (under the untraceable Chambre) and Bourmont with the War, which, as for him, passed to the Britanniques three days before the French defeat of Waterloo), precisely to face in the majority of the Room. That leads to an increasingly sharp opposition between the Ministère Polignac (1829-1830), and the Room.
To short cut to the Address of the 221 of the March 18th 1830, which denounces its ministry, and to reconstitute a favorable parliamentary majority, Charles X carries out the dissolution of the House of Commons the May 16th 1830. But the Libéraux carry it the June 23rd and the July 19th 1830), obtaining 274 deputies.
Advertisement of the victory of Algiers, and the insurance given by the prefect of police that “Paris would not move” seems it to authorize, him and Charles X, with a takeover by force: they are the 4 Ordonnances of Saint-Cloud, of the July 26th 1830. The revolution of 1830 which follows sign then its fall and that of the Bourbons.
Condemned to the perpetual prison and the civil Death, its sorrow was commuted to 20 years of banishment out of France the November 23rd 1836, by a measurement of grace decided to the instigation of the first ministry Molé.
He was the half-brother of Armand Jules Marie Héraclius, duke of Polignac.
