The Senate, the Council of State, the great dignitaries of the court were all assembled at the Tuileries when the guns of the Invalides announced to Paris, France that a new "Roi de Rome" had come into the world. The young Prince was delicate in his childhood and in his youth. He was educated with much care and surrounded with much pomp. Napoleon III, thought it necessary to surround his son with much prestige. While he himself often went out with a friend, General Fleury or another, in his phaeton, driving his own horses, the "little Prince," as he was always called by the people, never went out without a military escort and without equerries.
