Best Answer

The last French king was ousted in 1848 and replaced with a president. The president was Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, who himself seized power in a coup and made himself an Emperor. Presidents were definitively reinstated in 1871.
The French had already overthrown their king (Louis XVI) during the French Revolution, but he had not been replaced by a presidential regime.
