When someone becomes president due to the death, resignation, or removal of the sitting president, it is called presidential succession. In the United States, this process is outlined in the Presidential Succession Act and the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, which designate the vice president as the first in line to assume the presidency in such situations.

Does the french have a congress and vice-president?

France has a Parliament, divided into two houses: the National Assembly and the Senate. Both houses meet in entirely separate buildings in Paris. Occassionally, both houses will unite and meet at the Palace of Versailles, if they plan to discuss changes to the Constitution. This event is called a French Congress. France does not have a Vice-President. If the President dies/resigns/gets removed from office, the President of the Senate (elected by Senators to be their leader) stands in,while an election is called and a new President is elected.
