During a turbulent period in Spain, Philip V secured the duchies of Parma and Tuscany for his son Charles in 1723 and abdicated in favor of his eldest son, Prince Louis. After the premature death of Louis I, who reigned only from January to August 1724, Philip V reclaimed the throne and initiated a major shift in foreign policy by forging closer ties with the Empire through the Treaties of Vienna (1725), in which former rivals accepted the new political order and relinquished their claims.
