World History

2. France after the Great Terror
After the end of the Great Terror, and the execution of Robespierre and his followers, the people of France wanted to put an end to the extreme violence of the Revolution
IN 1795, the moderate members of the Convention formulated a new type of government.
In this government, power was given to the upper middle class. It has a two body legislature and executive power was given to five men who made up the Directory

3. France after the great terror
The Directory members were corrupt, and exploited the government for their own gain.
They also appointed a new commander to the army named Napoleon Bonaparte.
In 1799, the people of France grew tired of the Directory. With the backing of the people and military, Napoleon staged a Coup D’Etat or “blow to the state”. He quickly seized power and assumed the role of dictator of France.
