well better a real title and a wished-for-title.

: Actually, the Dukedom of Franco is a more
: prominent title, a Grandee of Spain, while
: the Dukedom of Anjou is a title recognised
: in LA's French papers, but not a legal
: title. I mean, there is no nobility in
: France.
: And Franco is not a name to be linked to in
: the XXI century. Villaverde, in this sense,
: is more "neutral", let's say.
: Anyway, I doubt LA would use any of the
: titles, since he considers he is entitled to
: higher titles, ie, royal ones. Why being
: Marques of Villaverde, or Duke of Franco,
: when he thinks he is "HRH the Duke of
: Anjou"?

: That remark, that her son would never become
: King of France showed a sense of realism
: indeed. Beside the unlikely event of the
: French Republic becoming a monarchy again,
: in my opinion the claims of Louis-Alphonse
: de Bourbon are weak because of the
: international treaties which separated the
: House of Bourbon in a French and a Spanish
: branch and whic blocks the throne of France
: for the Spanish branch.
:
: Supporters of Louis-Alphonse will fight the
: legitimity of these Treaties but that is an
: already lost battle.
:
: If I understand your post correctly, Don
: Luis-Alfonso will become Marques de
: Villaverde and his uncle Don Francisco will
: become Duque de Franco?
:
: Maybe this settlement was done because Don
: Luis-Alfonso already is Duc d'Anjou and the
: Dukedom of Franco would be 'snowed under' by
: the more historic and prominent title of
: Anjou.
