Kings in Exile

1872. In a certain European state called Illyria, the monarchical system collapses, forcing King Christian II along with his wife, Frederica, and their small son to flee to Paris. However, life in Paris affects everyone differently. Christian plunges into entertainment,... spending the meager family funds. He is happy to forget his title, which seems a burden. In contrast, Frederica, being a queen to the core, behaves completely differently. How will this trial in Paris end for the exiles?
This is the essence of the novel "Kings in Exile," created by the classic of French literature, Alphonse Daudet. Although this fictional story of the royal family has nothing in common with real history, it reflects the political situation of the second half of the 19th century, when monarchies fell one after another in Europe.
