The "Count of Paris" is a title historically associated with the rulers of the city of Paris, the capital of France. It has been used since the medieval period, often granted to noble families who held significant power and influence in the region. The title has evolved over time, with various individuals claiming it, particularly during the Capetian dynasty. In modern times, the title is often linked to the House of Orléans, a branch of the French royal family. The current claimant, Henri, Count of Paris, represents this lineage and is involved in cultural and historical preservation efforts related to the French monarchy.
