Best Answer

The French Revolution produced a form of aggressively secular (non-religious) republicanism that quickly led to extreme violence. As in later revolutions, a period of murder and civil war then ran its course, leaving an unstable authoritarian government. This was overthrown by Napoleon's coup d'etat of 1799, which saw him become First Consul and then Emperor in 1804 - dictator in all but name.
