Since 1789, France has has at least 23 constitutions, and has gone back and forth between republic, other limited democracy, Dictatorship, monarchy and Empire.
The FIRST Republic came in after the execution of Louis XVI in 1792. It lasted a very short time and was successively replaced by a Directorate, a Consulate and Napoleon's Empire. After the Empire, the Kings returned. They were kicked out in 1830 and replaced by a different King. He was deposed in 1818 in favour of the SECOND Republic. This one lasted four years; its President was Napoleon's great-nephew, who restored the Empire in 1852.
The THIRD Republic followed the defeat and capture of Napoleon III by the Prussians in 1870, and lasted until 1940, when Hitler installed his puppet government at Vichy. In 1945 this was replaced by the FOURTH Republic.
Even since then, the constitution has been changed yet again, and we're currently on the Fifth Republic, and counting.
