Unknown. There is evidence to suggest that the line of Louis XVI continued through Louis XVII, but mysterious circumstances surround the child-king's imprisonment and potential escape. He was 11 years old when he was imprisoned by the Revolutionary government, and yet a 14-year-old boy was found deceased in his cell. The KNOWN senior Bourbon descendant is Louis Alphonse de Bourbon (if crowned, would be Louis XX) The French monarchy author mentioned is Xavier Reyes-Ayral. The interview between him and Joe McClane can be found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFzKTlXfoJo The current Duke of Anjou is Louis Alphonse de Bourbon, who, as stated above, is the apparent senior Bourbon heir. The term Anjou-ism is seen used by those legitimists (pro-French-monarchy activists) who do not believe that Louis Alphonse is the rightful heir. There are other claimants: https://www.connexion.com/article/Mag/French-Facts/Who-are-the-four-rival-claimants-to-the-French-throne The Uprising in the Vendée occurred as a response to Revolutionary incursions into the Vendée, persecution of faithful priests, the murder of Louis XVI, the attempted installation of apostate priests in the parish churches in the Vendée, etc. It was a peasant uprising, nonetheless, led by noblemen and soldiers.
