1 Sept 1797 Jahr - Elections of 1797

Beschreibung:

New elections in 1797 created even more uncertainty and instability. Battered by the left and right, unable to find a definitive solution to the country’s economic problems, and still carrying on the wars left from the Committee of Public Safety, the Directory increasingly relied on the military to maintain its power. This led to a coup d’etat in 1799 in which the successful and popular general Napoleon Bonaparte was able to seize power.
