At a time when both Bourbon France and Bourbon Spain thought of Parma as a strategic point of interest, Tillot favoured French policies abroad and wide-ranging reforms within the Duchy of Parma. He was made marchese di Felino.","summary_more":["Tillot's career was of his own making. The son of a valet de chambre, he was born in Bayonne. He studied at the Collège des Quatre-Nations in Paris, then went to the court of Charles III of Spain; after Charles' departure to be King of Sicily, Tillot was attached to the household of Philippe de Bourbon, whose private secretary and treasurer he became. He organised fêtes for Philippe at Chambéry and elsewhere."],"facts":[{"key":"born","label":"Born","values":[{"text":"22 May 1711","date":"1711-05-22"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P569"}},{"key":"birthplace","label":"Place of birth","values":[{"text":"Bayonne","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134674"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P19"}},{"key":"died","label":"Died","values":[{"text":"13 December 1774","date":"1774-12-13"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P570"}},{"key":"deathplace","label":"Place of death","values":[{"text":"Paris","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q90"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P20"}},{"key":"citizenship","label":"Citizenship","values":[{"text":"France","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q142"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P27"}},{"key":"occupation","label":"Occupation","values":[{"text":"politician","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q82955"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P106"}},{"key":"education","label":"Education","values":[{"text":"Collège des Quatre-Nations","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q979600"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P69"}},{"key":"positions","label":"Positions held","values":[{"text":"prime minister (1759–1771)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14212","start":"1759","end":"1771"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P39"}},{"key":"awards","label":"Awards","values":[{"text":"Order of Saint Louis","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q247777"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357#P166"}}],"office":null,"sections":[],"cited":[],"cited_from":null,"videos":[],"last_reviewed":null,"organizations":[],"same_as":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillaume_du_Tillot","https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357"],"faq":[{"q":"When was Guillaume du Tillot born?","a":"Guillaume du Tillot was born on 22 May 1711 in Bayonne."},{"q":"What positions has Guillaume du Tillot held?","a":"Positions held by Guillaume du Tillot include: prime minister (1759–1771)."},{"q":"Where did Guillaume du Tillot study?","a":"Guillaume du Tillot was educated at Collège des Quatre-Nations."}],"related":[{"name":"Hosni Mubarak","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/hosni-mubarak"},{"name":"Gamal Abdel Nasser","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/gamal-abdel-nasser"},{"name":"Anwar Sadat","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/anwar-sadat"},{"name":"Mohamed Naguib","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/mohamed-naguib"},{"name":"Mohammed Shia' al-Sudani","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/mohammed-shia-al-sudani"},{"name":"Jung Bahadur Rana","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/jung-bahadur-rana"}],"places_in":[],"nearby":[],"image":{"url":"https://diginpl.com/kb-img/guillaume-du-tillot-1259f514fa.jpg","width":500,"height":634,"license":"Public domain","credit":"Pietro Melchiorre Ferrari","page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ferrari_-_Guillaume_du_Tillot_-_Galleria_Nazionale,_Parma.png"},"sources":[{"label":"Wikipedia (English): Guillaume du Tillot","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillaume_du_Tillot","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/"},{"label":"Wikidata item Q594357","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q594357","license":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},{"label":"Image: Ferrari - Guillaume du Tillot - Galleria Nazionale, Parma.png by Pietro Melchiorre Ferrari (Public domain)","url":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ferrari_-_Guillaume_du_Tillot_-_Galleria_Nazionale,_Parma.png","license":null}],"license":{"text":"CC BY-SA 4.0","url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","facts":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},"attribution":"Text from the Wikipedia article Guillaume du Tillot, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.
