Detailed explanation-1: -As economic conditions worsened in France, Philippe was forced to give up his crown after the outbreak of the French Revolution of 1848 . Food shortages and widespread, unemployment brought the population of Paris out on the roads. Barricades were erected and Louis Philippe was forced to flee.
Detailed explanation-2: -Following the revolution of 1830, Louis Philippe was appointed as the king of France. The economic conditions in France deteriorated and the king failed to bring in the much-needed reforms. As a result, another revolution broke out in 1848 and it turned violent. Thus, king Louis Philippe was forced to flee.
Detailed explanation-3: -Social and political discontent sparked revolutions in France in 1830 and 1848, which in turn inspired revolts in other parts of Europe. Workers lost their jobs, bread prices rose, and people accused the government of corruption. The French revolted and set up a republic.
Detailed explanation-4: -In spite of his burgeoning military career, Louis-Philippe was forced to flee France in 1793, and spent twenty one years in exile in various countries.

Detailed explanation-5: -Faced with insurrection, Louis-Philippe abdicated on February 24, 1848, in favour of his grandson the comte de Paris. With Queen Marie-Amélie he escaped to Honfleur and thence to England.
