The three French governments described in this section are the National Assembly, the Directory, and the Consulate. The National Assembly emerged after the Estates-General in 1789, marking the beginning of the French Revolution. Following the National Assembly, the Directory was established in 1795, attempting to provide stability after years of turmoil. Finally, the Consulate was formed in 1799, leading to the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte and the eventual establishment of the French Empire.
After overthrowing the Directory in 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte and his followers established a governing board known as the Consulate. This board consisted of three consuls, with Napoleon serving as the First Consul, effectively placing him in control of the French government. The Consulate marked the end of the French Revolution and the beginning of Napoleon's rise to power, leading to his eventual declaration as Emperor of the French.
The new government established in 1795, known as the Directory, was overthrown on November 9, 1799 (18 Brumaire in the French Revolutionary calendar) by Napoleon Bonaparte. This coup d'état marked the end of the Directory and led to the establishment of the Consulate, with Napoleon emerging as the prominent leader. The coup was supported by various factions disillusioned with the Directory's rule and instability.
