Only 2 countries currently have Sovereigns from the House of Bourbon - Spain and Luxembourg. France is no longer a Monarchy, so it doesn't have a Monarch from Bourbon (or any other) dynasty.

* The Sovereign of Spain is King Juan Carlos I

* The Sovereign of Luxembourg is Grand Duke Henri





Sovereigns from Bourbon dynasty ruled France, Navarre, Naples, Sicily, and Parma.



1. The current pretenders to the French Throne from the Bourbon dynasty are

a) Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou (Legitimist claimant)

b) Henri, Comte de Paris, Duc de France (Orleanist claimant).



2. The current pretenders to the Throne of Navarre are:

a) Princess Alicia of Bourbon-Parma, Dowager Duchess of Calabria (in accordance with its traditional male-preference cognatic primogeniture)

b) Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou (his claim is based on the union of France with Navarre, with both crowns then following the Salic Law of the French Crown)

c) Juan Carlos I of Spain (uses the title King of Navarre as part of his more extended titulary)



3. The current pretender to the Throne of Parma is:

a) Carlos, Duke of Parma - the current head of the Royal and Ducal House of Bourbon-Parma, as well a member of the Dutch Royal Family. He is considered as the pretender to the defunct throne of Parma, and by sections of the Carlist movement as the pretender to the throne of Spain under the name Carlos Javier I



4. The current pretender to the Throne of Two Sicilies are:

a) Infante Carlos, Duke of Calabria (who will eventually inherit claim to the Throne of Navarre through his mother, Princess Alicia of Bourbon-Parma, Dowager Duchess of Calabria)

b) Prince Carlo, Duke of Castro

When you are assigned to do such things, you are supposed to do it yourself.



For the names of the monarchs, search the countries.



Oh, and there is no monarch in France. Have you not gotten to that part of history? English lit? Whatever? French Revolution? Napoleon? Guillotines? Ringing any bells?
