How did conditions in France in 1799 make possible for napoleon to seize power?

By 1799 France was unstable politically, religiously and socially. Maximillian Robespierre had seized control of the government and had led France with a strong and unrelenting fist. His regime fell in 1794 and was replaced by the Directory, a very unstable form of government ruled by five directors. By 1799, the previous revolution and government changed helped cause famine, economic depression, civil war and a very unpopular government. All these factors made it easy for Napoleon to stage his coup d'état in 1799.
