Napoléon François Joseph Charles (Bonaparte), Duke of Reichstadt (20 March 1811 – 22 July 1832), since 1818 known as Franz, Duke of Reichstadt, was the son of Napoleon I, Emperor of the French, and his second wife, Marie Louise of Austria. He was Prince Imperial, but he was also known from birth as the King of Rome which Napoleon I declared was the courtesy title of the heir-apparent.

Although Josephine had had two children by her previous marriage, they apparently could not have children. Napoleon blamed himself for this failure, until 1809, when one of his mistresses delivered a healthy baby boy, which unfortunately Napoleon could not recognize legally as his heir. Hence he divorced Josephine and married Maria Louisa: The young Austrian princess did her duty, and 9 months after the marriage, a boy was born. He was christened: Napoleon François-Joseph Charles, and as heir to the French Empire, Napoleon gave him the title, King of Rome.
After Napoleon's fall, there was general expectation that the young King of Rome would be named his successor, under the regency of his mother, Empress Maria Louisa, but Talleyrand blocked this move and arranged for the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty. Maria Louisa was given the life-title of Duchess of Parma, while Napoleon's son was named the Duke of Reichstadt, the name by which history recalls him.
