Lafayette also played a big role in the French revolution of 1830, when the last absolutist Bourbon king was driven off the throne and replaced by Louis-Philippe.
Lafayette kept it from getting too violent, and smoothed the way for the accession of Louis-Phillippe, the so-called “Citizen King.”
I believe Lafayette died in 1834, rather than 1830.
He also played a major role in the 1789 Revolution, but it got away from him.
To be fair, it’s doubtful anybody could have controlled the situation.
