Joseph Louis Armansperg, count, a Bavarian statesman, regent of Greece, born in Lower Bavaria, Feb. 28, 1787, died April 3, 1853. In the war of 1813-'14 he was commissioner of Bavaria in the allied army, and belonged to the board which governed the conquered regions on the Rhine. He participated in the congress of Vienna in 1815, was one of the plenipotentiaries with the allied army during the occupation of France, and administered a large district of that country. In 1825 he was chosen president of the chamber of deputies, and became leader of the moderate opposition. King Louis I. made him secretary of the treasury and of foreign affairs. He was one of the founders of the German Zollverein. By his opposition to the ultramontanes he forfeited the confidence of the king, and retired into private life, but in 1832 was recalled to take the regency of Greece during the minority of King Otho. He entered Greece in February, 1833, and ruled until 1837 with almost limitless power. His administration was in many respects beneficial, but he finally became unpopular with the nation, the sovereign, and all the foreign diplomatists except the English minister, and was dismissed.
